A while back we added charts showing how many views each post got since it was written. Some folks noticed that we omitted days with zero views. Now those days are included and the chart correctly dips to zero.
Can you believe it took that long to fix such a little bug? The fix was four lines of code. It was less than an hour of work. We were remiss. To make it up to our faithful Stats addicts we added similar charts for Referrers, Search Terms, and Clicks. Feast your eyes:
This change applies to WordPress.com bloggers as well as self-hosted WordPress bloggers using the WordPress.com Stats plugin—no upgrade required!
You can access these new charts by clicking on the “stats” icon next to the appropriate referrer, search term, or number of clicks.
good job, brotha…

Awesome. Hope to hear more of these improvments from the team.
Thanks for this. Alltough I was never stroken by zero-hit days so far (or I didn’t notice it – because they were not shown).
I see a bigger problem in those obviously routine-like visits by layeredtech and ltdomains, and by several other texas-site; not always to be identified. I think that they are also counted in the statistics, though they are kind of “domestic”. Could they be eliminated in the count, or are they already?
Thanks a lot for your answer.
tabasco22, our stats use javascript to only count real visitors, so the counts we show should not include robots or automatic visits.
ok
Alright! *2 thumbs up*
🙂
Great! Thank you
Thanks for fixing the bug. Yet another reason for people to use the superb WordPress blogging platform.

Wow, this is cool. Thanks! 🙂
Monkey butt?
Interesting but perhaps TMI?
How does one assess quality?
MadSilence
Cool!
Thanks!
Thanks!
woo-hoo! stats stats stats … gotta love ’em!
I clicked into my admin to check the stats on my posts this morning, and what do I see over on the left. . . .STATS for people clicking onto links to my site. Another great feature for WordPress users.
Referrers, Search Terms, Clicks. . . .
Oh, WordPress, you are Da Bomb!
Thank you for thinking of us and for giving us all the wonderful ways to navigate and get the most out of our blogs.
WordPress Rules 😉
great job!
Don’t spoil us so much or we will never upgrade! 🙂
This is what I needed 🙂
When can we have stats showing geographical information? And stats about users´ – first time, returning, etc? It would make WordPress even better than it already is. Thank you
pymequitacion, geographic location is definitely on the list, it’s a common request.
Thanks for fixin’ stuff. I luv the stats: more equals better.
Your candor over this bug is refreshing. In the shop where I work, if I suggested we say something like that to our clients, I’d get looked at as though I had just sprouted a second head.
Thanks for the stats updates! I ❤ reading my stats page 🙂
Waw
It s better than the old one
nice article.
Huzzah! You guys really are the best. Thanks for caring and/or doing your job.

Cool… I was wondering why that graph was messed up (although it did make my stats look more impressive, if I didn’t look at the axis labels.) It’s much easier to see things at a glance now, although I think it would make more sense as a histogram since it goes by whole days rather than continuous time. That way the total blue area would accurately represent the total number of visitors, and it wouldn’t look like there were, for example, 2.718 visitors at a certain time in between two days.
you should have a stat chart that shows how much you get each day, but not as a line graph. they should have the date on one side, and then the amount of visitors on the other side. they should also allow you to go back a couple months/years as well.
oh thank god…firstly i saw it i thiught i got hacked 🙂
kwel
thank you! any additions to stats is very welcome. i can never get enough of it 😀 access to google analytics on our blogs would be super awesome!
It would be good to know stats about media (songs, videos) played in posts, too.
Superb.
Thanks a million.
More please…
thanks andy..
Does monkeybutt refer to “W”? Or is it just a code term used at the white house for the potus?
Thanks stats, good day
Good news.
Thanks for this! Now….please, even more details! 😛
Thank you muchly!
Excellent news. Thanks!!
Nice name… monkey butt… brings back memories. It is good that improvements are continuosly being made. I await more future improvements.
I’m new to worpdress and didn’t know you could see charts for individual posts. How do I get there?
It’s great newsss, but how can i access to it? I just clik stats on my blog and the same chart (the old one appears)
Can you help me?
Thanks a lot
Gabriela
AWESOME! 😉
Great Help from SEO Experts
The more stats, the better.
Thanks!
@ Gabriela and JMRot: You can access these new charts by clicking on the “stats” icon next to the appropriate referrer, search term, or number of clicks. (We just edited the post to clarify that.)
Oh, yeah! Don’t know what I’d do without those monkey butt searches! 😉 I love it, the more info. the better. I’m not entirely sure I WANT to know when I’ve had zero hits, but OK…I’ll be brave. 🙂
Having a black belt from Motorola in Statistics, I like any blogs on statistics.
really cool 🙂
Awesome updates.
Thank you & keep up the great job! 🙂
Thanks!
Brilliant! Thank you.
Karen.
would be nice if there was one click access to the stats page from any page in WP…if there is can someone share how/where? better yet would be a widget that showed an updated view of hits at all times
thanks
Cool. You guys are great! Thanks for the great work.
Thanks but I already need a 12-step program for stats addicts as it is : )
Good job. Take tomorrow off.
Matt or anyone from the WordPress team,
I have a site that is not a wordpress subdomain url. My backend has been recording what appears to be “Fake Traffic” sent by either AVG software or malware mimicking software. Does WordPress filter out this type of garbage?
nice. I can never get enough info on the popularity of monkey butts.
Coolio!
I’ve always be a chart freak so needless to say I think it’s great…………………Halbaby
We just started a new blog a while back about our jewelry biz… very helpful. Thanks! =)
Thats simply fantastic.
Super
Cool!
I love it, thanks! Now I can see how often my ramblings go unseen inbetween those few special visits!
Thanks you from Spain…
🙂
Thank’s for this
Hmm, http://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=stats won’t load for me. 😦
Thank you…. very good support
woo hoo, thanks.
This is great news! Thanks! 🙂
Ooohh, thank you, thank you thank you…
Great job guys!
I loike…! TQVM
do people really search for “monkey butt” that often?
W00t!! thanks
u rok
dope.
thats uber awesome .
awesome .. great feature
The auto statistics information is really a handy tool to guage the goabout of our posts and viewrship. It’s really amazing that the WordPress team is gearing up with all sorts of enhancing tools at our disposals. Thanks.
I love stats. Keep ’em coming.
As all you do, this is good too. Thanks a lot.
It’s great. Currently I can know how many ‘views’ my blog gets. Is it possible to know how many ‘visitors’ I got? I know may be it’s asking for ‘too much’:-) but, one day a visitor viewing my site 10 times and the next day 10 visitors viewing the site once each, return the same results.
simply awesome!
great
is it possible to show us more about visitors like browser, screen resolution,location … and clarify visitors and visits and we were able to show them in blog
it would be great if you put an IP resolver near the commenters IP address
thanks
Just wanted to say you’ve got the best avatar!
Cool!
Now just fix the stats so we can view them in the time zone we actually in.
See, if you were using Ruby it’d have been 1 line of code taking less than a minute to write ;P
thats great 🙂
very nice. thanks as always for increasing functionality and a great product.
This is absolutely great news, thank you and good job!
