plug-in parameters don't appear; trying to get some Google Analytics working
When I look through the standard plug-ins on my Joomla 1.7 website, I see sometimes the ability to alter the "Basic Options", and always a description.
I don't see the option to alter plug-in parameters. I have downloaded three different extensions that are supposed have a parameter box where you enter your Google Analytics tracking code. However, none of them offer such a box through the plug-in manager when I click on them- just a "Details" description. All of them are meant to have such a box, for example : http://www.joomlablogger.net/blog/off-topic/google-analytics-asynchronous-tracking-joomla-plug-in/
When I enable these plug-ins, of course they cause a page error. So they're all disabled right now.
Can someone spot what's behind the obstacle that's in my way, or suggest a way to discover why I can't see these parameter boxes? All of the installs claim to be successful.
Need to get this working so- constructive debugging advice appreciated! The site is hosted by HostGator, and the version is 1.7.3

Hi Barry,
I would check permissions. Take a look at the "system information" page under the site menu in your Joomla administrator. If any of the folders are unwritable it might explain your problem.
Do you see plug-in parameters in the built-in Joomla plug-ins? For instance in the email cloaking plug-in?
