How to view stats from past periods?

[HowlingWulf]

Clicking on 'Past Periods' on the main page brings up a small window with a select box for all the periods, but there is no action launched after selecting one and there is no 'submit' type button either.... ?

There should be an action launched when you select a date, what type of browser are you working on, i'll have to look into that

Do you have a pop up blocker installed?

I just tried and it works fine for me. I selected 4 different periods and they all loaded. Not sure why it wouldn't re-laod for you.

You guys ever thinking of putting in a better stat analysis for the webmasters? One where you can just put in a time frame and see the results of that time frame? It is very common and most useful.

Our programmers are building the new stats system right now.

We didn't want to release the info till we started beta testing.

I have IE 6.0

I do have the Google Toolbar installed, but it's not blocking any popups....
there just doesn't seem to be any action when I select a time period.

howlingwulf make sure u select a different stats period from the one you were previously viewing.

for example if you were looking at your stats for week 55 and then click the past periods link and click view week 55 again i noticed it does nothing.

Yea I started sending some ok traffic, but being able to do a good stat analysis means the most to me. The way it is now hard to view past periods and all, really sucks, plus what is that note about trimming stats?

Trimming stats? Please explain.

And you can see past periods just fine.

Click past periods, up pops a window, choose the period and the stats for that period load.

I made a couple screenshots just for people to reference too:

Part 1:



Part 2:



When we release our new stats system it will be laid out a lot better.

NOTE: The above refferer information may not match up exactly to the true raw / uni and sales count as we store this data in a compacted form and trim it every period as well.


Trimmed data?

Trimmed data?

By trimmed the programmer meant we may one day dump/delete referrer(URLS) information from past periods. Although we have yet to ever do that, you can still access/see the referring urls from past periods.

That Note sits under the Top 25 Referring Urls Table at the bottom of Daily stats.

PR - Any idea why my hourly stats always show more hits for today than "today's" stats do?

I asked my programmers the exact same question.

Looks like a time bug from the server move, hourly is running on a 26 hour day. It is being corrected.

Summary and Daily are fine.

Thanks for pointing it out

hmm.. my hourly stats show that it's running on 24 hour days. It breaks down the hits for each hour, so you'd think that if it were somehow reporting 26 hour days that you'd see a marked increase in hits either at the beggining of the day or the ending of the day. Also, I would say that the hit count difference between hourly and daily is more hits than I would normally send in a 2 hour period.

Maybe the summary and daily stats are reporting uniques hits and the hourly stats are reporting raw hits??

Anywho.. thanks for checking

Perhaps I didn't explain it properly, I don't speak tech very well. But it is being fixed.
