At the moment it track every page, and not just the index. * Now if you’re inserting your code manually it depends on your theme. What’s your theme? * Thread Starter [oce](https://wordpress.org/support/users/josepo/) * (@josepo) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283191) * You know forget it that is what I want baby. How come the boys here at wordpress haven’t added it to the website. I searched and only one hit came up about Google Analytics.

Will I see it? Just curious. Google says they don’t see the code on my site but then I have also heard that google says that function on their site isn’t 100% yet. * [McShelby](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcshelby/) * (@mcshelby) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283485) * I can see it: Line 19 on your main page * [cschmit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cschmit/) * (@cschmit) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283486) * Ahh there it is.. my eyes must be going bad today.. thanks 🙂 * [cavemonkey50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavemonkey50/) * (@cavemonkey50) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283490) * Glad you found it. * [radial](https://wordpress.org/support/users/radial/) * (@radial) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283492) * I did this plugin, but google wont verify it: Profile Name: whootah.com Website URL: [http://whootah.com](http://whootah.com) * Tracking Unknown The Google Analytics tracking code has not been detected on your website’s home page. For Analytics to function, you or your web administrator must add the code to each page of your website. * [vaamyob](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vaamyob/) * (@vaamyob) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283493) * Your site looks like it’s setup correctly, you just need to give google some time. I just left my changes in there and eventually (I checked about 8 hours later), google figured it out. * [radial](https://wordpress.org/support/users/radial/) * (@radial) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283494) * oh i was assuming they it would refresh when i told it to check again. I just did install the plugin, so will check back tomorrow. thanks!! * [archshrk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/archshrk/) * (@archshrk) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283495) * It took about 24 hours for them to check mine (poor documentation on Google’s part) but it only checks about every 24hrs, too. I still like [http://www.statcounter.com](http://www.statcounter.com) for more instant results but I’ll give it time to build up a record of visits before making final judgment. * [Tascha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tascha/) * (@tascha) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283501) * Do you guys see a breakdown of your pages content too? I only see the wordpress main url when I check about the content. No listing of special named pages or menupoints. * [cavemonkey50](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cavemonkey50/) * (@cavemonkey50) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283502) * If you’re talking about on Google Analytic’s content page, I do see other pages besides my main URL. * [Tascha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tascha/) * (@tascha) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/#post-283503) * I downloaded your plugin now, cavemonkey. I will see if it changed something tomorrow 🙂 Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 27 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/page/2/?output_format=md) The topic ‘Setting up Google Analytics’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [Stats](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/stats/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 27 replies * 15 participants * Last reply from: [lepenseur](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lepenseur/) * Last activity: [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/setting-up-google-analytics/page/2/#post-283530) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
