Stats Not Displaying Pages / Posts Counts, For The "Now" Date Range

This week, we're seeing a number of problem reports, from anxious blog owners, in Blogger Help Forum: Something Is Broken, who can't see the Stats detail upon which they depend.
My Stats display does not include individual posts counts!

Most people, when providing details, discover that the problem is with their Pages / Posts displays, for the "Now" time range - though for some blogs (not all), we see that "Day" is also affected.

We have a rollup discussion, where we are collecting details from the blog owners reporting.
  1. What is the blog URL?
  2. What is your geographical location (country, state, city)?
  3. What service provider do you use for Internet access?
  4. What browser(s) (name, and version) do you use?
  5. What operating system (name, and version) do you use?
  6. Are you using Classic GUI Blogger, or New GUI (2011) Blogger?
If you are observing this problem, providing as many details as possible may help Blogger to focus on your problem, by identifying a pattern.


(Update 8/20 10:15): Blogger support has resolved the problem.
Thanks everyone for your patience, we've released a fix and Stats should be working without issue now.

I don't get this process. Does Google know we are having a problem with stats, and are they fixing it?

I have had no "now" or "day" stats for about 36 hours, and even though I'm still showing lots of pageviews, none of these new pageviews is showing up as "post" views anywhere, either in the "week" data or in the total views-per-article that are accessible through 'blogger in draft.'

How do we tell GOOGLE about this?

Thank you.

Has been like this since sometime in the 17th getting neither Now nor Day stats. We can check on sitemeter that people have read several posts but when we check Traffic Sources, they all lead only to the Homepage. Eventhough, we have checked and viewed pages ourselves, they are not being recorded at all, even in Traffic Sources.

I've had this problem since the 17th, getting neither 'Now' nor 'Day' stats. I know for a fact that 'stats' are not working as I have entered my blog from other computers, these views do not appear on my stat count, even in traffic sources.

Can some one fix this problem please

Those of us on Blogger with adult content warning or other interstitial pages have been living with this since May and it has never been fixed or resolved. Stats do not function at for us except for the counts preceding black hole date in approximately May.

SunLover,

THere are several major differences between this problem, and the ongoing problem with the "Content Warning" interstitial page ("your problem").
1. Scope: This problem affected every Blogger blog. Your problem only affects people with "Content Warning" interstitial displays, and who also care about Stats.
2. Technical Complexity: This problem was a basic breakdown in Stats. Your problem involves how Blogger maintains the interstitial displays - not just "Adult Content" displays, either.
3. Relative ROI. Your problem affects a small amount of blogs, will require a lot of work to make it good for a small amount of blogs, and the blogs that are involved are not the most necessary to the general audience of Blogger.

One thing that is really interesting about this is how addicted we are to our stats.

They are so fascinating! It would be cool if some researcher would find out if we all 'need' them for the same reasons, or if our love for them differs.

Stats are very important! Shows some one is reading your post, and where they are geographically. I,for example,was surprised to see I have a quite a few readers from Japan! Besides which,you are able to perceive if the subject you write about is of interest to your readers.

Right, Alex,

Stats are very important - but you have to understand the limited context. Blogger Stats will never show details about all blog traffic, in all classifications.

Just now, the 'blogger in draft' stats, which provide all time totals for each post, went from being accurate to giving each post a minus-one for total views.

What next?

Hello Chuck - FYI page view stats are back for my blog with the interstitial page - looks like they started working sometime last night for the first time since May.

Adding A Link To Your Blog Post

Occasionally, you see a very odd, cryptic complaint I just added a link in my blog, but the link vanished! No, it wasn't your imagination.

Embedded Comments And Main Page View

The option to display comments, embedded below the post, was made a blog option relatively recently. This was a long requested feature - and many bloggers added it to their blogs, as soon as the option was presented to us. Some blog owners like this feature so much, that they request it to be visible when the blog is opened, in main page view. I would like all comments, and the comment form, to be shown underneath the relevant post, automatically, for everyone to read without clicking on the number of comments link. And this is not how embedded comments work.

What's The URL Of My Blog?

We see the plea for help, periodically I need the URL of my blog, so I can give it to my friends. Help! Who's buried in Grant's Tomb, after all? No Chuck, be polite. OK, OK. The title of this blog is "The Real Blogger Status", and the title of this post is "What's The URL Of My Blog?".
