Yes you can put analytics code in head.php file but why you don't use build in template feature where you can put only tracking code ?

Because I'm sure that if I use build in template feature, analitycs work bad. Don't counts all visitator!
So I want try to put it in the header where google raccomanded. I'ma sure of this, I have some article that
have 12.000 read and analitycs tell me only 400. Before that I cahang skin all work good so I think that the problem is in the position of the analitycs script.

Sorry for my bad english, I hope that you can undersand what I say

There is no way that code track not full data, but if you want to you need to add this code to this mentioned file.

I can put the code also in - templates/gk_twn2/layouts/default.php at the end before the tag </body> ?

Once you find the code snippet, copy and paste it into your web page, just before the closing </head> tag*. If your website uses templates to generate pages, enter it just before the closing </head> tag in the file that contains the <head> section. (Most websites re-use one file for common content, so it's likely that you won't have to place the code snippet on every single page of your website.)

If you check the Google help pages you will know that the best place is before closing

Code: Select all: </head>

tag co before </body> place is not the best solution.

tag co before </body> place is not the best solution.

But is write also "

For the best performance across all browsers we suggest you position other scripts in your site in one of these ways:

before the tracking code snippet in the <head> section of your HTML
after both the tracking code snippet and all page content (e.g. at the bottom of the HTML body)

So I want konow if is true put the analitycs code in /public_html/templates/gk_twn2/layouts/default.php
and if is true put the analitycs code in /public_html/templates/gk_twn2/layouts/blocks/head.php

I want tray to change beacouse analitycs now work bad, so I want konw how I can try.

There is no way that analytics work bad, analytics works or doesn't work - you got only 0 or 1 state. You can paste this code wherever you want to - effect will be the same.

I'm sure that is so, I'm sure that don't count all the visitors, if I put the code in the public_html/templates/gk_twn2/layouts/blocks/head.php, in which part i have to put it?

Before </head> marker as it is said in google analytics documentation, please read my post below.
