Has anything changed with the API access since 1/2/09? Any chance of a newer Google Analytics Stats widget coming out in the near/mid future, or anything that other developers could do to assist?
Yes, unfortunately Google Analytics has changed the way accounts can be accessed via widgets or gadgets and it is no longer possible for us to provide a reliable tool. We have written to Yahoo! to remove the widget so as not to waste people's time, but I guess it takes a while.
On the bright side, a GA API is apparently just around the corner, which should make gadget and widget development more straightforward. If you have any ideas for what you would like to see in an analytics widget, please let us know.
I'm having trouble getting it to connect to my Google Analytics account. I see others are having this problem, over a month old and still no resolution?
For whatever reason the widget is not able to establish a connection with Google Analytics. Any thoughts on how to correct this, or is there a possible problem with my network restricting the widget from making the connection???
