 * The latest upgrade of WordPress seems to have broken this plugin. I now get the
   error message:
 * _Your WordPress.com account, dragondreamz is not authorized to view the stats
   of this blog. _
 * when trying to view stats.

 * DragonDreamz: please specify the version of the plugin and your blog URL. Nothing
   can be done without at least your blog URL. If you prefer not to post it here,
   please contact wordpress.com support.

 * Thanks for responding, Andy.
 * This is in reference to the most recent version of the plugin (1.81) and

 * I found quite a few others posting the same problem, and discovered a number 
   of people saying that by installing “Jetpack”, their stats were restored. Installing
   Jetpack appears to have automatically deactivated the stand-alone WordPress.com
   Stats plugin and the stats do work once Jetpack is installed. I don’t really 
   need the additional features of Jetpack, so it’s a bit of an extreme “fix”, but
   at least I have my stats back.

 * Andy:, any reason wordpress.com stats plugin did not record accurate traffic 
   for the past few days? I am aware that there have been a few bugs and fixes lately,
   we average 1500 + daily visitors and 04-09 to 04-12 have recorded 1-7 visits.
 * thx for all you contribute to WP!

 * Yes, thanks Andy, there was a conflict with the wordpress.com account that was
   registered with the plugin, thanks for your reply!
