Hi there,

Love the theme, but since I updated, my bounce rate has shot up. Can you think of a reason why that would be? Am happy to tweak things but no idea where to start. I was using Yuzo related posts plugin before and after…

Hello FarrahGillani,

Please notice that your bounce rate cannot drop down so suddenly, after updating the theme. Unfortunately, bounce rate is very ‘individual’ for every website so there is no general advice I can give you to improve your bounce rate.
You can maybe follow this topic here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1009409?hl=enhttps://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1745147

Thank you for your understanding!

Well, I think the problem is that analytics doesn’t seem to be tracking every page, even though I have added the tracking code in the relevant place in the theme panel:

I think it is to do with where the tracking is and that has changed with the theme – it has happened before…

Oh my goodness, I think I sorted it, but of course I just updated now and… suddenly my bounce rate has shot up! Is it that the analytics code is affected in the theme panel with each update and I’m having to change it each time? I can’t manage this every time you post an update :-/

Hello FarrahGillani,

Unfortunately, until now we do not have any bad reports in this sense. Also, please provide more details about what exactly is affected on your analytics code in this regard…the code will be erased from the field with each update or what do you mean exactly by ‘affected’? I have added your remark on our list of improvements in order to make more investigations in this regard.

Thank you for your understanding!

Hi there,

I think there’s a conflict with the analytics plugin and the newspaper updates – but I have sorted it now. Thank you!
