Not receiving Flags of countries that have visited !!!...
Hi !!. i have a problem again with my flags not being added to my list...i had the same problem on a different site, fortunately that was sorted out.... now i am getting the exact same problem on Vipsociety.com which is a game site on Face Book...... So far i am missing ( Argentina, Brazil, Australia, Vietnam, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria,) you may well say what i saw just in another message we have no way of knowing your previous visitors.... well i also have a rotating globe on my page underneath the flag counter, therefore i can see who is active on my page and from what country they are from, all the time... in the last 15 day's it states i have had over 900 visitors, the count on the flags is only 111. the visitors are people that are active on my page for a reason, either to support me in the game or to get credits from my page,..... not as you put it in your visitor page as people that have visited the flag counter page, all those countries i have mentioned have been visiting me over the last 2 week's along with many more, and they are still not being added, and that happens to a lot of countries..... i would like the flags please.... and i would also appreciate the counter being fixed so that it adds all the countries visiting. thank you.....

Re: Not receiving Flags of countries that have visited !!!...
Hi Jens or Jeremy,
I have a mystery. My newest flag on our congregational website is from Jordan....
Last New Visitor
United States
Visited October 4, 2011
Newest Country
Jordan
Last Visited September 26, 2011 --
but that is from several days ago. In the meantime, my visitor log says that I had several recent visits from a person in Guyana-- but that flag does not show as the newest one.
Guyana No October 2, 2011, 9:43 pm (GMT)
In fact, the flag counter tab shows the actual Newest Region from today is: Hessen, Germany
but that flag is not showing up as the latest visitor flag.
Website
What do you think is happening? Usually the newest flag updates with no issue.
(56 countries and counting.)
I am a happy upgrade "pro" member.
Thank you, Pam

As the log indicates, the Guyana visitor was not "new". That means they already visited your site in the past. They may have used a proxy server the first time (or this time), or they may have a laptop computer that they traveled with to another country, or they may even use a dial up or satellite connection. We only count a unique device one time, after which a cookie is set so that they are not counted again, regardless of which country they appear to be from on their return visit.

Jeremy, Thank you so much... one more follow up, please.... So today, I had a new visitor from Germany
Germany Yes! October 5, 2011, 3:23 am (GMT) Firefox 7 Windows Vista
Baden-Wurttemberg
The German flag didn't show up yet-- it still says Jordan-- but it should change at midnight to Germany?
Thank you again for your help.

You already have 14 flags from Germany. Jordan is still your newest country.
