  I can’t figure out how to get the Google Analytics tracking code into the footer of a Twenty Ten themed WordPress.com blog. I tried pasting the code into a “Text” widget and placing that into the First Footer. But that doesn’t work.

  Is what I’m trying to accomplish here only possible with a WordPress.org blog? Or is there a code workaround for this in a WordPress.com blog?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Google Analytics code will not work on WordPress.COM sites.

  Thanks. Evidently there’s no workaround via a code box in the footer then either? I’m relatively new to all this, but it seems that sometimes code can be converted, etc.

  I have not seen a workaround.
