  I have my homepage at thebluray.wordpress.com. In my stats, for the homepage there are two different stats. One goes to http://thebluray.wordpress.com/home/ . This page is named as Home. Another link refers to thebluray.wordpress.com/ . This page is named Homepage/Archives. If you visit both pages, you will see that both are the same one. If you go to bluray.wordpress.com/home, you will notice that it will redirect to thebluray.wordpress.com. Why are there two different names and links in my stats for the same page? I have created only one page and that is Home.

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

  Hi there!

  This is just a remnant of how our page slugs work. For the most part, users would never visit thebluray.wordpress.com/home, but in case they do, it redirects. You should only ever see this URL pop up in your views if someone directly accesses that link (and then gets redirected). I can also pop up if you unset the page “Home” from your front page settings at Settings > Reading.

  Does that clarify things? Let me know if you have any more questions!

  Nobody would try to visit the url with /home in it. How can I merge both url’s statistics?

  The stat was likely collected before you page was set to be your front page. There’s no way to merge those stats, but it really shouldn’t happen very often if at all.

  Let me know if you have any more questions!
