Has anyone else noticed that if you use the old version of g analytics, all of your goal tracking and funnel visualizations work perfectly, but when you try to view them in the new version nothing shows up?

I've been banging my head against the wall for 48 hours now and out of pure desperation i clicked the "old version" link and all of the goal conversions and stats show up perfectly.

Is anyone else dealing with this same BS?

EDIT: Now that I go back I'm 99% positive that my funnel visualizations are still missing a ton of data.

and it looks like other people are experiencing the same things..
 


I'm sorry. It off topic, but can somebody tell me where I can get the following services:

1) I need the service to submit my sites to tools like Alexa, so that profile pages are created on such services.
2) That done, I need the service to ping the major search engines about those new profile pages (created on sites like Alexa, Compete, etc) so that they are indexed for sure.

Anybody can do that? Perhaps, some service or a person? Thanks.
 
I still use the old version due to the bugs in the new one. They better fucking not do away with the old version link until you can export PDFs in the new version.

I like OWA but how the hell do you export data?

I assure you, it can be done. That being said, I can't instruct you how to do it , as it is overly-fucking-comlicated as far as I am concerned. I gave up trying to resolve all the conflicts I was having and paid some one to configure the API for me.

Piwik has this capability from the get go... That might be worth looking into as well.
 
Yep, new version blows.

And it's only a matter of time till they force it on us.
 
Well, I'm glad I haven't switched to the new version just yet then! I normally like to wait a little while before switching to a new version of anything, just so they can get the bugs out.

Programmatically with OWA API.
The simplest is with REST:

Code: 
http://yourdomain/owa/api.php
?owa_apiKey=b6b9c9b9016d2b8b3b9b52e67eba06a3
&owa_do=getResultSet
&owa_metrics=visitDuration,bounces,repeatVisitors,newVisitors,visits,pageViews
&owa_dimensions=date,browserType
&owa_constraints=browserType%3dFirefox%203.5
&owa_startDate=20100312
&owa_endDate=20100331
&limit=10
&owa_format=xml
 
Do any of these alternate tracking systems have anything like the live active visitors section in GA?

Way too addictive watching them run around the site clicking on shit. Like an ant colony.
