Can’t use toplytics_results function in theme

Hi there,

I installed the plugin and set it up connecting to GA fine, but I’m using a theme that isn’t widget aware:
“The theme you are currently using isn’t widget-aware, meaning that it has no sidebars that you are able to change.”
This means the widget link on the settings page for the plugin doesn’t work (broken link to http://www.mywebsite.com/wp/wp-admin/%7B!!%20admin_url(‘widgets.php’)%20!!%7D)

So I followed the instructions to use the function in a template directly:
“How can I use the plugin functionality outside the sidebar? The plugin offers 2 functions that can be used either in the theme or by another plugin.”
https://www.presslabs.com/docs/code/toplytics/how-to-use-toplytics/

Using this code:

<?php
	$toplytics_args = array(
		'period' => 'month',  // default=month (today/week/month)
		'numberposts' => 7,   // default=5 (min=1/max=250)
		'showviews' => true   // default=false (true/false)
	);
	if ( function_exists( 'toplytics_results' ) )
		toplytics_results( $toplytics_args );
?>

But this fails as the ‘function_exists’ is false.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? The theme is also a Roots/Bedrock/Sage variety, not sure if that’s relevant?

Thanks for any help.
