Google Analytics nugget only showing Firefox visitors

Hi

I installed an HTML Nugget 3 days ago with my Analytics code in it and so far it's only showing visitors using Firefox. Not a single record of an IE visitor has shown up

I chose the "bottom of the content" from the drop down list. Has any one come up against this odd problem before?

Thanks

Hi!

Usually you need to put google anylatics code in the HEAD section of your blog (so you'll need to use a HTM Head Nugget or edit the index.tpl template file).

OK thanks Garvin I'll try that - it's just that the Google Analytics web site says that it must be just before the </body> tag.

I'll see what happens.

It made no difference. However I noticed my Google code had <br /> tags embedded in it.

So I am disabling "Perform Markup Transformations". This has removed the <br /> tags and may be the reason for IE not showing as visitor browsers.

However I won't be able to find out until the stats are updated tomorrow. :(

Hi!

Ah, of course! Yes, whenver you paste javascript into a nugget, you need to disable to perform markup transformations.

Yes that was the problem. Stats are working properly now. :P
