Description

It really doesn't work me. I've tried every setting to get this module to display something -- anything.
Since I've added this module, it has not displayed any information. nothing. blank. zero. naya. zip. zilch.

I'm sorry to say, but I have the same dissapointing experience.

For a bug report to be useful, you realyy should describe what you expected to happen, how you went about it, and where it failed.
Did the block not show up in the blocks list?
Did it not show up after you enabled it as usual?
Did it show up with no data?
Did it show up with zero values?

You really need to be more informative here...

Well in the counter report we can't see anything...

But I think I 've find an issue to make this work.

You simply have to activate the Counter module block to make this work. Well it worked for me...

Is this a bug or is it normal?

To make Counter module start counting then you need to:

1. Enable the Counter block, or
2. If you want to count but don't want to show the Counter block then go to Counter Setting:
--> Show Site Counter Result for Administer group only = TRUE

I had no idea about the block, thanks.

May I suggest some of the following
- drupal_set_message status message in hook_install() telling the user to activate the block and how to configure the module and access reports
- note in the readme file about this
- drupal_set_message error messages on module config page saying the block is not active.

Thanks to this post I got Counter working too after some frustration. This needs to be clearer or implemented in 5.x's hook_install() too. Cheers for the info.
