Thanks in advance to anyone who reads this. I'm completely new to Pixel Post, so please bear with me.
I had an older version of PP, as soon as I went to admin, I realised there was the newer 1.4.3 version. I downloaded and installed it according to the instructions in the upgrade.txt.
Im using the included 'simple' theme (the one that came with the upgraded download). This isn't so much of a problem as more of a minor annoyance. Having set the options for the kind of calendar I wanted, I reloaded the page and it just won't show, also in admin, I get the total number of visitors this month (it's only been up for about a week, so it's not a lot), but the referrers keep appearing and disappearing. Now they have just gone completely.
The new advanced stats add on, just doesn't seem to be working for me.
The referrers part will untimately be the most useful to me as I'd like to see where traffic is coming from. I plan to use PP in another project as soon as I can get the addons working the way I'd like.
If it helps, here is the info showing in the admin section of the addons page::
'Advanced stats (advanced_stat.php - version 1.0)
This adddon manages the pixelpost stats and works in coherence with visitors table.
New tag: <ADVNCD_SITE_VISITORNUMBER> instead of <SITE_VISITORNUMBER>
Number of all visitors: 250 -- Number visitors this month: 250'
and here is the info from the General Info section::
'Pixelpost Version

1. Can you give us link?
2. Do you use tags for calendar addon and for the rest of addons?
3. Refererrs now are in GENERAL INFO (PP 1.5 BETA1)

More or less thats all.

Thanks for the response, link is HERE (http://www.hm-photography.co.uk/pblog)

Just changed the theme this morning to Ramin Mehran's Visible theme, as I found the included addons a bit more useful. But I'm still not getting anything in referrers (I know they are in General, but it went blank - it was intermittent anyway).
In response to your second question, I haven't done anything other than upload the add ons as they are (to the addons folder) and then chose a template. Could that be were I went wrong?
I am a complete newbie to PP.

1. There are tags which are not parsed:

2. Go to OPTIONS -> TEMPLATE and check state of CALENDAR TYPE.
