 * I’ve had one up for a while too, based on the ncyoung refererLib package. Code’s
   here:
    [http://www.ben-johnson.org/blog/refererLib.new.phps](http://www.ben-johnson.org/blog/refererLib.new.phps)
   It also includes a function that’ll keep track of who comes to your page via 
   Google and displays the query strings they use to get there. The code on there
   is a little outdated – I’m migrating over to the current CVS version this weekend,
   and I’ll be uploading a new copy with the following fixes: * Now uses WP’s database
   connections, so you don’t need to plug in your username, password, etc. * Code
   cleaned up Since we’ve got Smarty templates in CVS now, I’ll get it turned into
   a plugin at some point soon.

 * Ok, I’ve uploaded the version with the updates decribed above. PHP source is 
   now located at:
    [http://www.ben-johnson.org/blog/refererLib.phps](http://www.ben-johnson.org/blog/refererLib.phps)
   Enjoy, and let me know if you have any bug reports. (note – the database getting
   huge if you get thousands of hits a day is a feature, not a bug 🙂 )

 * I copied the code and saved it as refererLib.php. Can someone tell me what code
   I would have to put elsewhere to have the referrers show up on my page?
    I’m 
   looking to have something like “Last 5 Referrers” and then a list, but since 
   I don’t know php, I don’t know what to put on my page to have it show up. Would
   it be include (refererLib.php)? and then the list would show? Thanks very much.

 * I get no output ;_;
    I have uploaded the referrerlib as referrers-include.php,
   and in referrers.php: <pre><?php $list = topRefererList(5,”global”); foreach (
   $list as $link){ print “
    - “.$link.”
    - “;
       }</pre> No output though :/ Using WP from CVS (2 days old now)

 * ben: your installation instructions may be great for php geeks, but for those
   of us with lesser skills they are difficultto follow. I think there are steps
   you take for granted. My suggestion would be to try to write your instructions
   so a 12 year old could follow them.
