# Plugin OverCounts clicks?? Please Help!

 * Hi there,
    I’ve also posted this question on the studiopress forum [http://www.studiopress.com/forums/topic/simple-urls-plugin-counts-non-existing-clicks/](http://www.studiopress.com/forums/topic/simple-urls-plugin-counts-non-existing-clicks/)
   but I’ve been advised to post it here.
 * I’ve installed the SimpleURL plugin on my website:
    [http://letstalksex.net](http://letstalksex.net)
 * and it seems like it counts many more clicks than my affiliate analytics tell
   me.
 * I’ve downloaded the raw server logs for one of my sites and it seems like the
   affiliate analytics were correct and the links were clicked 2 times and not 160
   times as SimpleUrls says.
 * But still, server logs are huge and I might have been looking for the wrong thing.
   Also on the studiopress forum they have told me that the plugin works well and
   maybe it’s tracking something else or someone has put my links somewhere on the
   web.
 * Is it possible that maybe the plugin is stripping the affiliate code? so people
   is clicking but they are not recorded from the aff analytics?
 * Could someone please help?
    Thanks
 * D.
