Troubleshooting - Visitors Not Appearing

Last updated: 17th August, 2020

Why Are Visitors Not Appearing on My Dashboard?

  • Some Internet Browser Extensions and AdBlockers can prevent the GoSquared Snippet from rendering. This reduces the visibility of User sessions on your website.

  • When you test the tracking of your own interaction on your site, if you have any privacy extensions or plugins blocking GoSquared, you will not have visibility of your own sessions.

Examples of AdBlockers include Ghostery, AdBlock, AdGuard and uBlock.

This document explains how you can disable AdBlockers or whitelist the GoSquared website, and ensure GoSquared’s analytics can operate effectively.

Whitelisting GoSquared

Prefer to keep your AdBlock application active? Another option is to add GoSquared to the list of Trusted Websites or Whitelist of your AdBlocker.

This process will depend on which particular AdBlocker you use, but most applications will follow a process similar to this:

  1. From your Internet browser toolbar, open your AdBlock Application

  2. Select Settings

  3. Select Trusted/Whitelist websites

  4. Copy & Paste the URL below into the list, then close the application

https://www.gosquared.com

Your AdBlocker will now remain active, but will no longer interfere with your Profile Tracking.

AdBlockers can also be the cause of problems loading GoSquared Assistant onto your website.
