Frequently Asked Questions

Installation Instructions

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it to work.

  1. Upload wp-power-stats.zip to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Unzip wp-power-stats.zip in the folder
  3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

The plugin does not work, what should I do?

Disable and then re-enable the plugin in the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
If that does not help, try disabling other installed plugins, to exclude the possibility of a plugin conflict.

Where are the settings for the plugin located?

They are located under ‘Statistics’ section in the ‘Settings’ section.

When I test the plugin, the page view number increments by 2, is it a bug?

If you test the plugin by loading the blog, make sure that you have the setting ‘Administration Exclusion’ under the ‘Exclusions’ tab set to ‘yes’. One hit is formed from the blog view, the other one from the administration panel hit if the setting is set to ‘no’.

Useful stuff!

I like this plugin very much. Plugin is Simple and easy to understand. Most things that I use are "Visitors & Page Views" graph and "Traffic Source".

No search engine keywords

What a pitty: search engine keywords stay empty. And I know that there must be a lot of them because I crosscheck it with Google Webmaster Tools.
