The new Stats "Don't track" option is an improvement, to many blog owners.
"Manage tracking your own pageviews", as before, starts from the Stats dashboard page. The wizard now runs from a sub directory of the blog managed by the dashboard - and uses a normal (first party) cookie.
Now, blog owners no longer must enable third party cookies, to make Stats ignore their page views. This is an improvement - but it can still present a challenge, for some blog owners.
Besides filtering "third party" cookies, not all blog owners and readers will permit complete control by content under the individual blogs.
If you want "Don't track" to work reliably, enable scripts for the blog URL.
If you want the "Don't track" option to work reliably for your blog, you now must enable scripts to run under the published URL.
We have to trust scripts run from "blogger.com" - that is the Blogger dashboard. The Blogger dashboard is produced by Blogger Engineers - and if we trust Blogger to host our blogs, we have to trust their code.
Scripts which run under the individual blogs - "blogspot.com", local country domains, and custom domains - can be added by the owner of each individual blog. Not all blog owners should be trusted.
People who mistrust third party cookies may also mistrust scripts which run under "blogspot" etc. Unfortunately, to make "Manage tracking your own pageviews" work, you (the blog owner) now have to open up any script filters, which block content run as part of your blog.
Start from the Stats dashboard page.
Click on "Manage tracking your own pageviews".
"Manage tracking your own pageviews" now runs under the blog published URL. This removes "third party" cookies from the problem.
With a custom domain published blog, you must use the wizard in "HTTP:" mode.
By default, the new wizard runs in SSL mode. This will be a problem, with blogs published to custom domains.
If the blog is published to a custom domain, you will need to change "https" to "http".
Check "Don't track my views for this blog." - then close the tab / window.
The new wizard, "Would you like to have your pageviews counted when you visit this blog?", now runs as "blogging.nitecruzr.net", for this blog.
If you publish to a custom domain, and you can correct the URL, you will see the same, for your blog. If you publish to "blogspot", you can see the same also. This is a script - and is subject to security filters.
And yes, there is no "Save" button, or link. Just the box.
Click the box or don't. As soon as you click, it's set.
You should trust your blog - even though you do not trust other blogs, in general.
Generally, as the blog owner, you can safely trust content run under your blog. You probably should not trust "blogspot.com", and all blog publishers, however. This means that you will require multiple filter rules - for every browser and security add-on, that contains a script filter.
If you publish to "blogspot.com", and live in a country which has a local domain, such as the UK, you need a rule to permit the local domain alias.
If you have multiple blogs - and want to block pageviews from being counted, for each blog, you need permissive filter rules for each blog.
If you publish your blog to a custom domain, you need a rule to permit the domain URL. For this blog, I need
If you do not permit the proper URL(s) for your blog, you will find Stats counting your own pageviews. Possibly, this will happen even with "Don't track my views for this blog." checked. In some cases, the check mark will be cleared, when you close the window.
Owners of #Blogger blogs who don't want their activity tracked by Stats now see a new "Don't track" wizard. Using the "Don't track" option no longer requires enabling third party cookies - and worrying about the security issues.
Unfortunately, this now means that the "Don't track" wizard may now be vulnerable to filters which restrict scripts that run under blogspot, and any custom domains.
