Troubleshooting: No Activity in the Bread & Butter Dashboard? If you have installed the plugin but do not see your visits in the Bread & Butter dashboard, please check the following:
- Clear Your Cache: This is the most common issue. If you use a caching plugin (like WP Rocket or Autoptimize) or have server-side caching, clear it immediately after installation to ensure the tracking script loads.
- Test in Incognito: Your visits might not be tracked if you are logged in as an Administrator (depending on your settings). Open your site in an Incognito/Private window to generate a fresh test visit.
- Check for Conflicts: Ensure you have not also installed Bread & Butter via Google Tag Manager. Running both simultaneously will cause errors.
- Verify Connection: In your WordPress admin, go to Bread & Butter and confirm that the status says "Connected".
