Hey Guys,

Just a quick one. I normally use Google Analytics for my Views/Data Collection etc.

What I did notice and something that was odd is that the page views on Google Analytics and the actual Page Views you see in the theme dosent add up.

For example we posted a post the other day and was monitoring the hits via Google Analtyics Real time views was about 152 but when i looked the Post views there was only 7.

Any one else having the same problem?

Thanks

I actually see the opposite. I see a ton of post hits but lower on the GA side. Wondering if bots can somehow trigger page looks? Not sure.

Strange. Hopefully the support guys can shed somelight on this.

I also installed JetPack for WordPress and hits seems to tally with GA but not with post counts on the site.

Hi,

If you use a cache plugin you have to enable the Ajax view count – http://screencast.com/t/Mg7Ls0Uh
The theme view count feature registers one view for each page access (including page refresh), the other systems may filter for unique users or other criteria and that’s why the results are different.

Thank you!
