    Hi. I think my stats are way out of wack due tot the fact that I am tracking two different sites with the same code. I have a website but it also that has a forum. I am tracking my website with my GA code and I also had to put the same code on my message forum which is run seperately from my hompage. In other words my website has a forum that I also want to track. My question is how can I get the code to track my message forum and my homepage as 1 site? I think the visitors are going from my homepage and into the forum therefore getting counted twice as unique. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You have the option in GA to select whether you want to detect a single website or a domain including all subdomains. I think this is the solution you are looking for but I don't have that much experience with this myself

    There is no rule for track many websites with one GA code because Google Analytics Generates Different code for different website, blog, forum etc.
