OneWorldVirtual Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 I'm trying to add a basic hit counter to the main index.php page of our VA but i'm having no luck. I have a basic php counter installed but I can't seem to imbed it to the site. Thanks in advance, DeeQ @ OWV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liberie Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 You could use google analytics will return you a lot more information than a hit counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneWorldVirtual Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Yeah I know this but GA interferes with our live map and FSPax uploading so it's a no-go. Thx anyway. DeeQ @ OWV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Nabeel Posted January 28, 2010 Administrators Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 It shouldn't interfere - where are you adding it? If you place it in your footer.tpl file in your skin, it won't interfere with those pages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneWorldVirtual Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Well, I had to disable GA through my hosting provider because it was interfering with the whole site, specifically the map and uploads (it was adding bunches of code onto outputs). Is there a way to do it without using GA entirely? DeeQ @ OWV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeQ @ OWV Using GA or your own hit counter, if you add it to the footer.tpl file in your skin, it should work properly and not interfere with those other pages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneWorldVirtual Posted January 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Okay, but how do I embed the counter? the only referance i have is in javascript which is just gonna return an 'unexpected <' error or something i'm sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
