I understand the other fields in the Counter Info like Your Hut,
Petpages, Noticeboard, Shop Wizard, and Mall Members.
But I do not understand where the "OTHER" comes from.
That field almost always has the highest count in my counter and I do not
know where these guys came from :/
Even higher than the Mall Members field.
Counter Field : "OTHER"

Hmm. I wonder why it's too high. :/
I have these Page Numbers in my Shop.
When a user clicks them as they navigate through my shop, it wont add as a count right?

nope. and if you're not using &mall the values will be high. Plus hits from your UL will fall into that category.

BUT your "page numbers" are huge sentences so if they draw the click in from the marketplace they are coming up as "other" you might want to add the &banner to those too ;)

Oh I see. I will do that perpette. Thanks! ^^
I've also put the &petpage code at the end of the banners on my userlookup and pet descriptions to make sure.

No problem :) Oh wait!
Dmitri... now that I think about it do the other links work that way if its the first click into the shop? I set mine up to from day one just never thought about it. Can it still count with the extra link info for a certain page within the shop? I have two banners that are set up for particular pages. *unsure* I suppose if I am wrong, I can live with them being stuck in "other" :P
My "other" tends to be rather high too, some is from the boards and oddly enough I have found shops out there linking to me for no reason what so ever, but I wont complain *lol*

It will only count the first hit. For instance, if a user clicks into your shop via your banners, it will count that and ignore the rest (even if they go to your petpages and then click back into the shop via one of the links found there)
But if they bookmark the petpage and come back a couple hours later, then it will count whatever method the person uses next to enter your shop. Hope this make sense :P
