User tracking mod

[TamyA]

Hi Laura,

What version of zen cart do you have?

I also installed it over 1.3.8a and nothing is showing, I made sure that all the troubleshootings steps in the read me file were followed but nothing is showing?

Is user_tracking_for_zen 1.3.6.2 compatible with Zen cart V1.3.8a? Thanks.

OK, my mistake by copying
<?php if (ZEN_CONFIG_USER_TRACKING == 'true') { zen_update_user_tracking(); } ?>
to the wrong template.

It is working now.

This mod is brilliant. Thank you.

Highlights the odd thing on the site that needs tweaked when you realise the issues that make some customers leave.

Also....Am I the only one who presses the 'report' button literally every other minute? It's like being down in that bunker they had in Lost!

I upgraded my site yesterday. Everything was running smoothly. I went to check on a product I added early this afternoon (admin working fine) and I got a blank page.

I installed the debugging and got this error:

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_update_user_tracking() in /includes/templates/custom/common/tpl_footer.php on line 67

I went in an retyped the text into the tpl_footer as directed by the install directions but the error keeps showing. The whole site is non accessable except the admin side. I went in and "dropped" the user tracking table but that didn't work either.

Anything I can do besides re-upgrade the site?

Hi

Just started getting this error message:

144 Table './DIRECTORY NAME NOT SHOWN/user_tracking' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed
in:
[select customer_id, full_name, ip_address, time_entry, time_last_click, last_page_url, page_desc, session_id, referer_url, customers_host_address from user_tracking where time_entry > 1301727600 and time_entry < 1301814000 order by time_last_click desc]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Please point me in right direction to correct.

Thanks

I just installed and I'm not getting everything under the admin (configuration) user tracking config. Pictures to show what I have. Also, I had an error message when I installed the sql pictures as well. Any help will be kindly appreciated. thanks in advance!


This is the error message when installing the sql 1062 Duplicate entry '999' for key 'PRIMARY'
in:
[INSERT INTO znc_configuration_group (configuration_group_id, configuration_group_title, configuration_group_description, sort_order, visible) VALUES (999, 'User Tracking Config', 'User Tracking', 31, 1);]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.


2nd. The only fields showing on the admin are: Title/Value &Action. I thought it would be more (perhaps I'm wrong)

I installed the user tracking mod yesterday and really followed the instructions. I can't get it working.
Can anyone please help me out?

In my Tools I now have 2 options:

- User Tracking, wich shows the following:

troubelshootings: (from the readme file)
1- first check again if all files are correctly located in the zen directories.
2- go to phpmyadmin, in table, configuration, delete all values related to user tracker , in table configuration-group, delete the table user tracking
3- try install sql package with alternative methode (if the first time was phpmyadmin, so this time do with zen admin add sql patch tools)
4- chack again if you have added two modifications to tpl.footer.php and footer.php (Make sure it is the right template)

Good luck

To all the users of the usertracking mod!

I'm in the process of upgrading to 1.3.0.1 from 1.2.6, and translating the english files to swedish (8815 lines of code...) and fixing the other mods I've installed.

Please bear with me, this will take a while.

In the meantime, post problems and solutions to the usertracking mod in this thread.

Can you help me out with my user tracking?
My admin shows nothing. If possible I would ask you to log in to my admin and fix my errors

I was just poking around the UT code a bit and noticed that the user tracking function file is checking to see if there's a customer id (in other words its checking to see if the person is logged in or not) and then querying the database for the customers first name and last name every single time a new page loads up for that person.

So if the person is logged in we don't have to query the DB, their first and last name are already in the $_SESSION.

As long as your user tracking code snippet isn't one of the first things to be loaded, to help improve your load time you may try the following.

in includes/functions/extra_functions/user_tracking.php
find the following code

if ($_SESSION['customer_id'])
            {
                $customer = $db->Execute("select customers_firstname, customers_lastname from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " where customers_id = '" . $_SESSION['customer_id'] . "'");
                $wo_full_name = addslashes($customer->fields['customers_firstname'] . ' ' . $customer->fields['customers_lastname']);
            }

replace it with

if ($_SESSION['customer_id'])
            {
                $wo_full_name = $_SESSION['customer_first_name'] . ' ' . $_SESSION['customer_last_name'];
            }

Has anyone incorporated tracking restrictions using the spiders file? And to take it a step further, incorporated it so that the data is still logged with an option to hide spider views or show them when reviewing the log?

This last question is asked, because it seems that ip addresses to not log are specifically that, not logged versus not shown. Would think that would want to log all accesses (unless REALLY concerned about log space) and just ignore them when reviewing the logs.
