I noticed that you're putting the Google Analytics code at the end of the <body> segment in the HTML page. Shouldn't it go in the top just before </head>?

I know that this doesn't impact the collection of site statistics, but I mention this because Google Webmaster Tools is unable to verify my site using the usual Analytics-code technique.

The best way to put google analytics code is use build in template feature which you can find in template options. You need to paste only tracking code so only UA-XXXXX number, if you need more help this is also described on our wiki - wiki.gavick.com

Hello bkrztuk

You refer to the wiki about features, but I also added the rule cf this wiki.
Still Analytics cann't find the code. I checked and doublechecked the url and the code.

No results.

Google need some time to track any results from your site, please wait 24 hours. If the code can't be detected please send me admin details via PM - I'll check the configuration.

Are you sure you paste proper code so only UA-XXXX number ? Could you show me your site URL, I want to check in source whether the code is loaded.

Hello, now it works! Before was not working so I uploaded as HTML form, google has occurred, and now also works by inserting UA-XXXXX. The site was what I posted. Thank you, best regards.

You can always open site source code and search for your code number - if you see the code at the end of the site that means that Google is still tracking and display result after some time.
