 * I can’t delete my old google analytics code. I deleted my old google analytics
   account, deleted the old plug in from wordpress, deleted the old plugin from 
   the database. I set up a new analytics account and installed a new plugin. Now
   both accounts are being referenced in the source code. Getting the message from
   Goggle that tracking is not installed.
 * Is there somewhere else in the database that the old account number is being 
   stored?

 * Hi. I just checked and I see no reference to anything Google in the header or
   footer of my theme.

 * It is in both the header and footer.. I would also check if you have theme options.

 * When you say it is in both the header and footer, what should I be looking for?
 * I have deactivated the second plugin and put the code in via theme options, but
   my original analytics account still shows in the head.

 * You can ask [your theme’s vendors](http://www.elegantthemes.com) which file it’ll
   likely be in.
