Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
mr_hopp Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 Hi all! I'm hoping to get some help here. After going through the Invision upgrade yesterday, all of the sudden today all forum traffic plunged by 90% (from 1,049 unique visitors the day before to only 104 today — see screenshot at bottom). Any idea why? Have other IPS folks been having any issues with traffic dropping after the upgrade? P.S. Here’s a screenshot from analytics:

Marc Posted September 28, 2022 Posted September 28, 2022 As others have said, please give it time if you have just upgraded
mr_hopp Posted September 28, 2022 Author Posted September 28, 2022 Okay, whew. Thanks for the support!
Marc Posted September 29, 2022 Posted September 29, 2022 No problem at all. Let us know if you have any further issues
Solution mr_hopp Posted September 30, 2022 Author Solution Posted September 30, 2022 Turns out it was something quite simple, but perplexing as to how it happened. After upgrading to the latest IPS version, somehow the GA tracking code was cleared (weird, right?). So when I added it back, it now works again! (Double whew) Matt 1
