Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support
Hi,
I've installed Simple Google Analytics, and wanted to ask a quick question about a possible modification. My store is on a subdomain of my main site. Google says that in order to track subdomains in the same profile as the main domain, a line of code needs to be added to the normal Analytics call.
The line that needs to be added is the one in bold. (This is the code as copied right off Google's help page)
Code:
<script>
_uacct="UA-xxxx-x";
_udn="mystore.com";
urchinTracker();
</script>
So, do I just add this line to the google_analytics.php file like so:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "' . GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_UACCT . '";
_udn="mystore.com";
urchinTracker();
</script>';
(with my domain in place of mystore.com)
Should that work? Thanks!

Yes, that's the right place to add it.
What happens when you do ?
Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support
Dr. Byte,
Any idea why I'm getting the double // in my error message above? I checked the google analytics file and it just has one / in it.
thank you,
betty

post a copy of your /store/includes/templates/custom/common/tpl_main_page.php file for review.

Judging by View Source, it appears to have worked!
Thanks, Dr. B. -- Zen Cart is my first experience with PHP, so I wanted some reassurance before monkeying around with this too much. :smile:
Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support
bettysue,
Since you're apparently only running this for checkout_success, then perhaps you need to change the logic to check and be sure the file exists.
Try changing this:
Code:
<?php
require($template->get_template_dir('.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'google_analytics') . '/google_analytics.php');
?>
to this:
Code:
<?php
if (file_exists($template->get_template_dir('.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'google_analytics') . '/google_analytics.php')) {
require($template->get_template_dir('.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'google_analytics') . '/google_analytics.php');
}
?>
Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support
Is that advice for me or the other poster Dr. Byte?
If it's for me, that is the only place the mod said to put the code. Should it be elsewhere also?

Yes, that was for you.
I only suggest the fix for that particular location. Haven't considered other places.

I actually got the identical error bettysue described in doing test runs through my site. I plugged your fix in on tpl_main_page.php and what it does now is just not call for the google analytics code on checkout_success (although the script appears to show up just fine on every other page in the site, including the other pages in the checkout process.)
Obviously it's preferable to have no error code show up, so I thank you for the fix! But I am curious as to what it is about checkout_success that causes the error in the first place, when it didn't occur on any other page in the site.
