Traffic Feed that no one can see but me?
-
HI all,
I currently have a traffic feed in my sidebar because I think it’s neat to see who visits my site from all parts of the world. However, this inhibits some from visiting as they don’t want their locations known for some reason, even though it shows nothing but the city and state. Is there another traffic feed or anything where I can see where my visitors come from, but it doesn’t show to anyone else but myself? http://www.lisamichele.wordpress.com
Thanks in advance,
LisaThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Yes: keep the link to your stats somewhere, just don’t put it in your sidebar. Then just click on it in your Bookmarks or whatever so you can see it.
-
You don’t need another one – you can keep it in your sidebar and make it invisible this way:
<div style="visibility:hidden;"> FEEDJIT_CODE_HERE </div> -
-
Good question! The space it occupies will still be clickable (linking to the full-report page).
-
-
Do I put that code UNDER the regular code in the same text widget the Feedjit code is in???
-

OK..I inserted it as you demonstrated, like this..
<div style=”visibility:hidden;”>
<img src=”http://feedjit.com/b/ed0d2c1a4a3ee6bd.png” alt=”” /></div>..but I can’t find it to click on it anywhere. I keep running the mouse over the area it should be, hoping to just get to the live feed on a separate page (watch it live) but nothing. What did I do wrong?
-
Also, if I decide to do so, instead of keeping it in my sidebar, to insure no one can click on the empty area to check, how/where do I put it in my blog stats and then access it? Will it still record who visits each page on my main blog even though it’s not in the sidebar?
-
“What did I do wrong?” Nothing, as you can see by clicking on the area below your Copyscape banner.
-
I can’t click on it at all..seriously. There’s nothing to click on, the vursor remains an arrow.
-
Ahn I see now. Apparently it’s browser related: I can click your Feedjit in Safari but not in Firefox. Then what you could do is bookmark the separate page.
-
I can’t find it either, but it’s there in the source. I’m thinking you could get your feed by hiding the link to it on your about page. Or another text widget. This will hide it in a period:
<a href="http://live.feedjit.com/live/ed0d2c1a4a3ee6bd/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #000000;">.</span></a> -
hmm. I couldn’t find it in either safari or firefox.
The bookmark is a good idea. Better than mine. ≥^.^≤ -
@Tess: Yours isn’t worse, it’s just another idea – which gives me the idea for a variant:
@lisamichele: You can create a small white image, upload it in your media library, get its URL and paste it in place of the original Feedjit image URL in the original Feedjit code (without the visibility code).
On another issue: your page takes too long to load, because you’ve got too many images. You’d better reduce the number of posts per page (Settings>Reading).

Ok, I’m all confused here. So I should just load the live ‘watch it’ page and bookmark it? Will it bring up my feed, though? I will reduce the number of posts per page, though.
