If your custom template does not have this file then you'll want to copy it from the 'default_template' directory into your custom 'common' directory. Alter that file and you're all set.Quote:

PHP Code:<?php
/************* bof AdCenter Tracking Code ********************/
if($page_directory == 'includes/modules/pages/checkout_success') { ?>
INSERT YOUR TRACKING CODE HERE
<?php
}
/************* eof AdCenter Tracking Code ********************/

Thanks! I will give this a try. I actually have the code currently placed in the checkout_success file and perhaps that's a wrong approach. I wonder how it populates the revenue if there's no variable that's defined for it.Quote:

Is the area in red below the line I should replace?

<?php
/**

require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_footer.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common'). '/tpl_footer.php');?>

<?php
if (DISPLAY_PAGE_PARSE_TIME == 'true') {

<div class="smallText center">Parse Time: <?php echo $parse_time; ?> - Number of Queries: <?php echo $db->queryCount(); ?> - Query Time: <?php echo $db->queryTime(); ?></div>

It will not populate the revenue figure if you do not provide one. To do this you'll need to write more programming code in order to read the order total on the thank you page and insert it into the proper slot within the tracking.Quote:

This goes without saying, but before you make any changes, make a BACKUP of all files you are going to alter so you have an easy way of returning to the beginning if you need to.
Something is very odd for me.
I have moved my shop from a host who ran it on an old version of ZC like 1.3.7 or something to a new host and its running on 1.3.9h.... Looked at analytics and realised that it stopped recording on that very day of change. Then realised I had to put on analytics.. So I have gone ahead and installed SGA.
Its been working fine. Stats going back for years, and then zeros for a little while..
When prodding on the GA website.. I see that there is a old interface and a new beta interface..
In the old interface, there is this green tick showing 'receiving data'... In the new interface, n the tracking code page it says this... 'Tracking Not InstalledLast checked: 09-Nov-2008 12:34:03 PST'... Thats like 3 years ago... So mybe there is a bug in the new interface... No idea how to make it check now that I have installed the code onto my site..
One other thing, bac to the old interface. There are 2 entries for my domain, one current with lots of stats, and one old UA code that was used by a previous company yers ago... But.. That old UA code is also showing as green tick with receiving data... But.. Its not... The old code does not exist in a single place on my zen cart.!! very odd.!!
None of those interfaces has to do with any of Simple Google Analytics or Zen Cart.Quote:

Having said that, if your tracking seems off, my guess is that when the site was upgraded, something was overwritten in how the Simple Google Analytics module sends data to Google.
In short, if you are getting data (don't even worry about the old interface and what any of those account says) in your Google Analytics side, then it should all be ok.
Hi, I just installed the Simple Google Analytics Mod on my website for the first ime, which is running Zen Cart v1.3.9h. But I'm having a bit of trouble with the customization steps that are listed in the Readme file. In Step 3, Part B where it instructs to insert the given code into the /includes/templates/[your_template]/common/html_header.php directory of the website, I've run into the issue of my site not having a html_header.php file. I'm running the cherry zen template on my site and am wondering how I should proceed with the install from here on? Thanks in advance for any advice anyone can offer.
Go find the html_header.php file in the default header common folder, and make a copy of it in your Cherry Zen common folder... then edit it there...Quote:
