# [Plugin: WP SlimStat] outbound not tracking

 * Hi,
    Slimstat is succesfully tracking visits and pages and so on, but doesn’t
   seem to be able to track outbound clicks.
 * I can see all the statistics, but ‘Recent Outbound Links’ remains empty.
    Also,
   in the settings-Maintenance, the wp_slim_outbound remains empty: wp_slim_outbound:
   Size: 1.00 KB | Records: 0 | Average Record Length: 0 bytes | Created on: 2012-
   03-22 11:30:56
 * Since my template is quite complicated (bought and adjusted), I wouldn’t like
   to disable other plugins to check if these are the cause and then find out that
   my site is screwed… these are:
    Contact Form 7, Google Maps v3 Shortcode, qTranslate,
   Really Simple CAPTCHA, WP-PageNavi, WP Smush.it
 * Perhaps related: if I click on an external link using an image instead of text,
   it will open the window with only the image. If I use class=”noslimstat”, it 
   will open the external page fine (but still not tracking). And if I add onclick
   =”ss_te(event,0,true)” to that same link, it will fail again.
 * I have tried adding above parameters (class=”noslimstat”, onclick=”ss_te(event,
   0, true)”) and as I mentioned, it does change behaviour and standard tracking
   keeps working, but the outbound links are not being tracked.
 * have you got any other suggestion than deactivating the other plugins?
    Cheers.

 * Hi there,
 * I’m sorry about the inconvenience you’re experiencing. It looks like the Javascript
   used to track outbound links is not being properly initialized. You can contact
   me at
 * [http://www.duechiacchiere.it/contatto](http://www.duechiacchiere.it/contatto)
 * with the URL of your website, so that I can take a look at the issue and help
   you find a solution!
 * Cheers,
    Camu
 * PS: it could also be a bug in the Javascript. The bugfix will be available in
   version 2.8.1, but I may need to ask you to test the new version in advance to
   see if it works.

 * Hi Camu,
 * I responded to you on your contactpage, but it returns the HomerSimpson response,
   I reckon you didn’t receive my answer…
 * The site is antillaconsulting_com (to check out the outbound tracking not working)
 * In specifically, the link I would like to work is the one on the page Colaboradores,
   the link to PlanB (either text or image link).
 * Thanks for following up so quickly!
 * Cheers

 * Hi there,
 * Try removing the `onclick` handler on that link: since you don’t have class=”
   noslimstat”, the tracking is being done twice. Also, the new version should help
   in your case. How do I contact you?

 * Hi Camu,
 * Thanks again for getting back to me.
    I have tried before without the onclick
   and/or the noslimstat, but no luck. But to be sure, will test it again now.
 * I tried as well to contact you again via your site, but Homer keeps coming back,
   dunno why?
 * You can contact me on: ftrippie “arroba” yahoo “punto” co “punto” uk

 * After some testing and updating files , we sorted it (1 row missing in MySQL)
   and now it works perfectly!
 * Thanks for all your efforts and dedication!
