Changed theme last night – stats are now frozen
-
Hi fellow ‘Wordies’
Is this a a coinsidence?
I changed my blog theme last night and this morning, my stats have frozen. I have asked friends to visit the blog (to make sure it really is frozen) and the stats for today still read zero. Blog is http://theideasblog.comAny ideas?

Looks like a relatively clean blog, although it did hang for a second on me upon loading. I see Angela the Stats Demon on the bottom as per usual.
I’ve noticed my Clicks Out aren’t registering anything, when they’d normally have lots of info by this time of night. I suspect these are individual glitches so you and I need to contact staff when they reopen support in the morning.

Angela the Stats Demon is a small smiley that appears on every page on your theme, named after Dr Mike’s ex: she’s always watching you, and she never seems to actually DO anything. WP.com uses her to count stats, because every time Angela is loaded, that’s one hit.

Hi Raincoaster
(Your blog is great by the way)I found a post on Google that suggested the following. I tried it and it worked – but I can’t see how.
Here’s what I did:
1. Go to widgets screen and add the ‘blog stats’ widget.
2. Press save.
3. Click on ‘view site’ button.
4. Go back to widgets screen and remove the ‘blog stats’ widget.
5. Press save – BINGO!Within 60 seconds I started getting stats again.
Apparent the post said something about it ‘hooking up’ the code that became mangled when the theme was changed.
Sounds odd – but something worked as I now have my stats back.
Thanks again for all the help!
