    Hello Staff,

    I'm wondering if there's now a problem with the Statistics page. It hasn't updated in a couple of hours.

    Is anyone else have this problem?

      I noticed last night the javascript is being edited/updated.
      Had trouble loading pages, links, etc.
      Actually saw the "White Screen of Death" and several error messages in-browser.

        Yeah, but those were fixed earlier today. This seems to have happened after the most recent changes(HubPages down for maintenance). wink

        I haven't even been up for 8 hours yet, so I wouldn't say it's been stuck that long.

        Mine was updating or appearing to update when I first got on this morning, but when HubPages went down for maintenance, then I noticed my statistics page has not changed, since. hmm

      That's it!  They shut off the stats to keep us all occupied while the home remodel is going on.

      Moving ranks right up there, stress-wise, with marriage and job change, you know - a total remodel can't be far behind.

      My statistics page changes regularly, no noticeable problems there, however my  earnings number iitself hasn't changed in days, maybe as long as a week. Is this the same bug y'all are talking about? (newbie when it comes to this stuff).

    I actually hope it's a bug and not the bottom dropping out of my traffic!  But my (traffic) stats have not changed an ounce over the last hour or two - but the time has changed ("last updated").  Are any engineers still in the office to look at it before the weekend hits with full force?  Unless it's just me.   sad

    Is anyone else seeing this?

      Sorry for the stats delays.
      We had similar delays earlier this week (13th and 14th that I know of).
      I have sent a message to see if we can track down the issue.

      These reports almost got lost in this old thread.

      Once we track down this one, if you see such an issue again, please make a new forum thread unless there is a recent one that is appropriate.

          If anyone notices it catch up to current before I do, a post here would be much appreciated as I probably won't be back in the forums until Monday.

          Kudos to everyone who reported this and thanks for your continued patience!

          The thing is, the last few days have really, and I mean really, been looking good. I was hoping it was a new normal! and then they got stuck.  But, since it's Friday, I won't worry and will just wait and see how next week goes. big_smile

        I just signed up for Google Analytics too but can't seem to get any stats.  Was there a delay when you signed up before you started getting data?

        1. wilderness profile image95
          wildernessposted 12 years agoin reply to this

          Yes.  Analytics doesn't collect data until you sign up.  So there is nothing yet for them to report - wait a week or so and you will see data begin to accumulate.

    My statistics have not updated for 34 hours now, but my earnings updated earlier today. How is this possible?

    It takes 24 hours for Google analytics to analyze information and display results.

    The stats page now says the last update was 2 hours ago, but the numbers on my page haven't changed in well over 12!

    UGH!

      On the top left corner of the 'standard report' tab, you can click the arrow and choose the date you want stats for - choose today's date and it'll give you quite accurate stats for today from midnight up to about half an hour ago.

      I'm glad you said that! I've just come online (its morning here) and either my stats are stuck, or my traffic has stopped!

      Actually I thought it might be the latter, Analytics is way down too sad

      The site didn't go offline, did it?

      I know it went offline for about half an hour a week ago, but no-one forum posted about it so I let it be. That was the second time I was aware of it going completely offline in a matter of weeks.

        Hi Izzy, how is life?

        Monday afternoon here and my stats are still stuck for several hours ago.. they had been stuck for a day and a half before I slept so they have updated at least once since then.. but stuck again (at my lowest point in the week so they don't make good viewing!)

          Total madness here last week with all the family here. Had to cook two meals a day for 13!! (I don't do breakfast). No time to hub, but back to normal this week.

          Over a year now and my traffic never returned, but there is the odd hub getting Google traffic which is weird. Hubs that have not seen a search engine view for months, never mind Google.

          Not a lot of traffic, just one or two hits really, but its as if Google is suddenly seeing them again, but doesn't really like them sad

    When this thread was first opened, someone joked that it might be related to the new profile page. I wonder if there actually is some connection, i.e., that some coding got messed up a little bit and all the new profiles have caused whatever the problem is to surface again.

    I check my stats regularly.  I like to see what is happening in one easy place. Although Analytics gives you lots of information, the stats are a simple and very useful snapshot.

    I am trying to find out what works and earn money here.  Stats are really important to me.

    I hate computer people, management, anyone who provides a service and then tinkers with it.  A reliable service is worth far more than some fancy tweak that might or might not work - but hey - don't worry - we can spend the next month farting around with it till we get it right.

    Write stuff, get traffic, make a little money.

    That's what I'm trying to do.

    Perhaps people could stop trying to screw it up for me,.

      We did have some issues related to stats being delayed, but we should gradually be catching up on them.

      Current stats should be fine.

      Even the best Hubs experience eb and flow related to traffic.
      So it doesn't sound like a bug, but keep your eye out and if you have something that contradicts your current stats (Google Analytics, etc) then please let us know and we can help you determine what might be going on.

    As far as I know, there were no recent updates/actions taken that would cause your problem, Vampsdes sad.
    On the other hand, my stat updates seem to be back to normal... again. Hopefully this will last much longer than the previous one.
