I tried using the module here
to allow Google Analytics. In this module's README, it says to

Copy the 'googleanalytics' module directory in to your Drupal
modules directory as usual.
Usage
=====
In the settings page enter your Google Analytics User ID.

What is the "settings page?"
I uploaded the directory to my page's module directory, but I don't see anything new in sitebuilding->modules.

What am I missing?

On my site, it is at http://yoursitenamehere.com/admin/settings/googleanalytics.

Administer -> Site configuration -> Google Analytics

Moving to the Google Analytics queue.

You have to enable the monitor, yes, at:

Administer->Site building->Modules

Title: google analytics » Google analytics not showing up in modules page

Could be - you have installed:

1. in a wrong location
2. a wrong version (e.g. HEAD)

Unpack the appropriate branch version in your site/all/modules directory and reload the modules page.

wow, I'm an idiot.
I have all my modules in the same folder as my c-programs ... so I accidentally copied a bunch of c stuff.
no wonder it didn't work.

can anyone help on the user name problem: is there an easy way to make the user name display on Recent Comments and Recent Blogs??

Sounds like fixed.

Go to your global theme settings page... on the right side are all content types listed that shows the user name.

Thanks, but there is no option for Recent Comments or Recent Blogs ...
do I need to modify some source code somewhere??

I don't know. Please open a new support case for this separate issue / question or try yourself first.

so OK...
I got the module to show up, but now it doesn't seem to want to communicate with google.
It says in my google account that the tracking data is not yet installed...

sorry to be so pesky.
