1. Caius, it did? was that cat handicap, err, handicat?
2. thanks for the link, I`ll take a look - although I consider using an applet for dynamic interactive graphs.
3. You are an idiot for letting your late cat anywhere near my FireStats, after you have been warned that it had tried to eat cats before, with almost but not quite no success at all.
4. See you in court!

Killer plugin. I have uploaded the 0.9.3. I just noticed that it did not import the data from your counterize2 plugin. Any chance that will be fixed in the next release?

Keep up the great work!

FireStats, must be backwards compatible bacause WordPress is backwards compatible.

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 11:07 am

Anthony, thanks.
what do you mean, it did not import?
did it say “0 records imported”, or did it give some error?
if its the formet, its probably because you already imported the data.
if its the later, I`d like to know what error message you receive, if any.

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 11:07 am

Guy,
Backward compatible with what?
there haven’t been a real release yet.
I do try to keep backward compatibility between beta releases (and so far I have managed to do it), but I can’t promise anything.

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 1:24 pm

It says the following:

Here you can import existing hits from your existing statistics system.
Currenty only Counterize is supported, but if you want to import from another statistics hits source, send me a note to omry@yadan.net and I`ll see what I can do. Looking for known statistics systems……
No known statistics system was detected, nothing to import.

I have Counterize2 by you activated and working so I know it is there.

Thanks

Anthony

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 2:22 pm

Anthony, can you look at the database, using a tool like phpmyadmin, and make sure you see Counterize table there?
what is the table name?
what wordpress version?
do you see firestats_* tables in the same database?

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 3:57 pm

The counterize table is named wp_Counterize.

I have 8 tables for firestats:

wp_firestats_excluded_ips
wp_firestats_hits
wp_firestats_options
wp_firestats_referers
wp_firestats_urls
wp_firestats_useragents
wp_firestats_useragent_classes
wp_firestats_version

Thanks.

Anthony

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 4:33 pm

Anthony, from phpmyadmin, open the database and run this in the sql section:
SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘wp_Counterize’

what did it return?

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 4:40 pm

Tables_in_taacus_wordpress (wp_Counterize)
wp_Counterize

I had to change the ‘ because the ones above did not work. But the table is there.

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 4:44 pm

so here is the problem, my code adds the ”.
did you just remove it?
what is your mysql version?
if you removed it, and it worked, do this:

find the function fs_counterize_detected in /php/sql-functions.php
and change the first line to this:

$sql = “SHOW TABLES LIKE “.$GLOBALS['table_prefix'].”Counterize”;

(this removes the quotes).

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 4:53 pm

No go. I even changed the line to $sql = “SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘wp_Counterize’”; and it returned nothing to import.

In this comment section the template turns the ‘ into a strange character. I changed it to the standard ‘ and it worked. What I don’t understand is how the SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘wp_Counterize’ can return a good result in mysql but not in the script.

omry   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 4:57 pm

My guess is that its the permissions.
try to login to phpmyadmin under the wordpress user and see what happens when you run the query.
if it fails, you need to give the wordpress user some more privileges.

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 5:53 pm

The user that wordpress uses has all permissions. I have tried the same query under the wordpress user and get a good response.

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 8:11 pm

The counterize import works in 0.9.1. I am going to cut and past the import section of it into the 0.9.3 and make sure it does work and doesn’t break things.

Anthony   Says:
September 3rd, 2006 at 8:17 pm

In the import section I put:

/*
* Counterize detected? (wordpress specific)
*/
function fs_counterize_detected()
{
$sql = “SHOW TABLES LIKE ‘”.$GLOBALS['table_prefix'].”Counterize’”;
global $fsdb;
$results = $fsdb->query($sql);
return $results != 0;
}

and it works! I have tried it on two blogs of mine and both have work. Not sure that it is what you will want to continue using but it does work for now.

Anthony

omry   Says:

Anthony,
Well spotted!
the bug was that I checked if GLOBAL was set and not GLOBALS.

thanks.

Omry, very nice work. Question… how do I diplay hits and uniques on my blog? I’m sure I looked every where, but couldn’t find the info.

don (el paso)

omry   Says:
September 18th, 2006 at 7:02 am

Hi Don,
Thank you.

at the moment, there is no official way to do it, but rumors says you can try to put something like this in your blog footer:

<?php
  echo "Hit count in last day : ".fs_get_hit_count(1)."<br/>";
  echo "Unique hits in last day: ".fs_get_unique_hit_count(1)."<br/>";
?>


the 1 in the function call is the number of days to get.
its a floating point value (you can put 0.5 for example), also - if you dont specify it it means everything.

Hi Omry, you have made my day with your plugin. It is awesome and so simple to understand now that I found it in my Dashboard, and you had to tell me it was there. With the code from the prior post in my footer that has just put the icing on the cake. I read the post about the guy that said it ate his cat. Well I don\’t have any cats on my website so I for sure don\’t have any complaints,lol. Thanks for replying so fast to my questions. What will happen when this is no longer beta?? Will we have to pay or will it be free.

omry   Says:

omry   Says:

you have the file utils.php in the /php under FireStats dir?
I am guessing here, but maybe you tried to activate firestats before you finished uploading it to your server?

There is an error with this plugin when trying to use it with the Sidebar Widgets. [Version1.1.8]

It worked absolutely fine then I tried to upgarde to the R1.2.3 version, which by the way has an error also. So I completely uninstalled everything to do with FireStats, including the WP tables and have re-installed it from scratch. It seems to be working fine from the backend, but now the Sidebar Widget just shows the following:

* Pages displayed :
* Unique visitors : 0
* Pages displayed in last 24 hours :
* Unique visitors in last 24 hours : 0

I just can’t figure out what has gone wrong? Please advise.
