 * I have unusual problem, I made wordpress theme and then i putted live. The problem
   is when i use Google Analytics to scan my site , it is reporting 200+ morphed
   pages , and what is interesting, the url for that pages starting with a name 
   of my local folder, which i used during my development, I cant’t figure out how
   to remove that morphed pages and how they are listed when i scan online site?

 * You apparently had `ga()` script on your site while developing, which got logged
   as events as you developed the site. GA doesn’t care where its script is called
   from, localhost, host’s server, someone else’s server. Doesn’t matter. It’s how
   we get “ghost referrer” spam in our data if it’s not filtered out.
 * There is a way to filter out events from your own IP so that your own usage does
   not skew report data. I’m not sure if it affects previous data or not. How to
   better use GA is beyond the scope of these forums. There are many articles online
   about GA filtering. I believe Google has GA specific support forums if you need
   specific help.

 * Thank you for the answer, yes I was used ‘ga’ on my local site in the ‘head’ 
   tag, now i better understand what is going on.
