Google Analytics without tpl_main_page.php

[timstoel]

I do not have a tpl_main_page.php file on my store.

First - is this a problem? Everything works fine.

Second - is there a way I can get Google Analytics to work for me?

Thank you.
Tim

Yes, there is, but I'd love to see a link to your site.

I read through the 77 pages of forum posts on Google Analytics, and it gave me some insight. I added:

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

to the very end of my tpl_header.php. I'm not sure if this is the RIGHT way to do it, but it appears to be functioning because my Google Adwords ID shows up in the code of all the pages in Explorer and Firefox. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
