View Full Version : Questions with Awstats

I've got awstats running but need some help configuring.

In the referrer section, it's counting pages within my domain as referrers...so 90% of the reporting referrers are within my site! Pushing all the real ones down the list.

I went into the .cfg file and I think I added my domain in the proper place so it doesn't get counted anymore. However I really don't know if it's working or not. How do I reset awstats to start over again? I don't care about lossing the data that's been accumulating (only for a week) and would like to start all over again to wipe out those referrers from within my domain.

Any help?

THanks!

Currently, there is no way to hide referrers in AWStats. The SkipHosts is for the "Hosts" section only.

I'm not trying to hide referrers. I'm just trying to get it to stop counting pages within my own site as a referrer. It should only be tracking links people use to get to my site but it counts each page in my site as one of those...

Your internal site, is considered a referrer. And like I said, there is no way to hide it. This is one of my biggest complaints with the program as well.
