FAQ
Why the plugin is not working for me ?
Please check if you can select analytics profile in the option page. If you cannot then your email and password may be wrong or you don’t have analytics profile attached to that email.
Why my reports page is really slow ?
This plugin queries Google Analytics to get the visitors information. This might take sometime. Working on a better way to cache the result for short duration.
Should I modify any code in wordpress?
Not needed. You have to just upload the files to your plugin directory.
If I de-activate this plugin will it affect my blog?
No. This plugin uses some of function of wordpress. WordPress has nothing to with plugin. So de-activating this plugin is 100% safe.
