It is claimed that students return home from Callanetics classes and have energy to burn rather than the usual tiredness people suffer after high impact exercises.

Very useful hacks, thanks a lot, I already implemented them.

I was trying to modify the hacks to make it possible to track specific referrals but my hacking knowledge is rather limited, hence I didn’t succeed.

Any simple method?

Sorry your comments seem to rewrite & amp; into a normal ampersand…

Hey Eli,

I know this is a rather old post but I have just implemented your hacks and they work well.

For those who say the Extras exceed their lines in the log file, you should amend this line and increase the number:

ExtraTrackedRowsLimit=500

So count the lines in your access_log and increase the number with this.

I had two polite requests… I was wondering if you could possibly amend the regexp so that it rewrites the ampersand into & (my awstats are generated in xml and it will not parse anything if a & is found instead of &).

Also your Google images code works well but instead of spaces in the key phrases it displays + signs. Is there any way to modify it so it displays it with spaces like the other Extras?

Thanks alot and great blog, will keep on reading.

Thanks for the script. It’s hard to sometimes organize all you traffic sources so you can see them all at once.

Never used awstats, more of a Google Analytics guy.

There are some really great scripts out there (especially greasemonkey scripts) that put some extra data into your Analytics overviews.

I would certainly check them out.

Is there any way to turn this off (so we do not have to do the Chron job- as I can see that it may lose stats if done at the wrong time) or is there a way to find out when it does it, so we can time the chron job to place the code a minute after it updates?

Better still, what do we ask of the webhost? Are they able to do it their end? I have asked them before, but they cannot seem to work out how. I have 2 hosts, both with Cpanel, and one updates the conf file and the other does not.

Error: The number of values found for extra section 5 has grown too large.

And I was only looking at a daily report! It would have been about 7000 uniques, 150,000 page views by this time of day. My awstats never had any trouble before the modification.

I was looking forward to this mod, it looked very promising.
