The report is gone, or the analytics are showing zero hits?
Ray - Could there be an issue with the domain mapping changes? Doesn't seem clear to me how that would happen.

It appears that arabstages.org has two mapped domains.
The change we made in 1.13 was to disable primary redirects in the WPMU Domain Mapping plugin so we could allow the subdomain site to resolve for HTTPS purposes. However, the side effect is the arabstages site now also resolves in two places -- arabstages.org (primary) and www.arabstages.org.
Would that have any effect on Google Analytics?

Hm. I'm not sure how the "primary" redirects would make a difference. The tracking code is embedded in the page, regardless of the URL it's viewed under.
I've attached a screenshot from https://analytics.google.com/analytics/web/#/embed/report-home/a8990737w20114960p172829462, which shows that Google is, in fact, recording traffic for the site. Scott, can you give more detail about the "stopped working" part of the report, so that I can try to verify?

Ok - I sent him a message asking for more info. I agree - it seems to be working.

Michael confirms it is working again. Maybe a glitch with Google? Marking this as resolved
