  Staff has been changing our URLs to the more secure https://

  This is your URL https://hethersettbirdingblog.wordpress.com/

  Forgive my ignorance but are you saying that because my URL is https that the quotation marks being inserted in my text are a result of this and therefore there is no way round this?

  I am not seeing this text just being told that it is prevented the counter from working correctly as per the below:

  You still have:

  <img src=”https://i0.wp.com/www.birdingtop500.com/button.php?u=Suburbanbirder” alt=”Fatbirder’s Top 1000 Birding Websites” border=”0″ />

  It should be:

  <img src=http://www.birdingtop500.com/button.php?u=Suburbanbirder alt=”Fatbirder’s Top 1000 Birding Websites” border=”0″ />

  apparently the quotation marks are added automatically by the programme.

  From the
  Site I am hoping to link to please see the following

  are you saying that your security measures stops the proper communication between the site counter and BT1000 and so hits do not register. You are just seeing an image rather than an interactive cookie – I would again ask how Ii prevent the system from adding unwanted code or if thewre is a work around that preserves code exactly as you post it.

  I’m sorry, but it wouldn’t be possible to bypass our security measures. If this is a necessity for you, I highly recommend moving to the self-hosted version of WordPress on WordPress.org.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities. At WordPress.com, we provide hosting, support, and tons of features for blogs. Users also have the option to purchase a variety of upgrades to customize the look and feel of their blog. WordPress.org is a software for self-hosted sites. With WordPress.org, users are provided access to all backend files and can upload custom themes and plugins.

  Check here to learn more about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  If you would like to move to .org, please let me know and I’d be happy to provide you further instructions.
