    Default Google Analytics update

    Just wondering if the instructions posted here: http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...ight=analytics on how to integrate GA into ZC are still valid with the newest version (1.3.0.1). Sorry to start a new thread, but the other one is locked and I would really like to use GA without breaking the cart.

    This is what they had concluded I think:

    #1 Go to your Google Analytics Settings -> Edit Settings -> Edit Main Website Profile -> E-Commerce Website : Yes

    #2 Edit
    includes/templates/your-template/common/html_header.php
    At the very bottom just before </head>


    Code:
    <?php if ($request_type == 'NONSSL') { echo
    '<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    _uacct = "UA-XXXXXX-1";
    urchinTracker();
    </script>'; } 
    else { echo
    '<script src="https://ssl.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript">
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    _uacct = "UA-XXXXXX-1";
    urchinTracker();
    </script>'; } 
    ?>
    </head>

    #3 Create a new file:
    includes/modules/pages/checkout_success/on_load_ga.js
    Insert into the new file:


    Code:
    javascript:__utmSetTrans()

    #4 Edit
    includes/templates/template_default/tpl_checkout_success_default.php
    At the very bottom add:


    Code:
    <?php
    $ga_orders_id = $db->Execute("select orders_id from " . TABLE_ORDERS . " where customers_id = '" . (int)$_SESSION['customer_id'] . "' order by date_purchased desc limit 1");
    $ga_utm_t = $db->Execute("select order_total , order_tax, delivery_city, delivery_state, delivery_country from " . TABLE_ORDERS . " where orders_id = '" . $ga_orders_id->fields['orders_id'] . "'");
    $ga_utm_t_delivery_country = $db->Execute("select countries_iso_code_2 from " . TABLE_COUNTRIES . " where countries_name = '" . $ga_utm_t->fields['delivery_country'] . "'");
    $ga_utm_t_delivery_state = $db->Execute("select zone_code from " . TABLE_ZONES . " where zone_name = '" . $ga_utm_t->fields['delivery_state'] . "'");
    $ga_utm_t_ship = $db->Execute("select value from " . TABLE_ORDERS_TOTAL . " where orders_id = '" . $ga_orders_id->fields['orders_id'] . "' && class = 'ot_shipping'");
    $ga_utm_i = $db->Execute("select * from " . TABLE_ORDERS_PRODUCTS . " where orders_id = '" . $ga_orders_id->fields['orders_id'] . "' order by products_name");
    //$ga_utm_i_category = $db->Execute("select categories_id from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_TO_CATEGORIES . " where products_id = '" . $ga_utm_i->fields['products_id'] . "'");
    //$ga_utm_i_category_name = $db->Execute("select categories_name from " . TABLE_CATEGORIES_DESCRIPTION . " where categories_id = '" . $ga_utm_i_category->fields['categories_id'] . "'");
    
    $ga_utm_i_array = array();
    while (!$ga_utm_i->EOF) {
      $ga_utm_i_array[] = array('product_id' => $ga_utm_i->fields['products_id'],
                   'name' => $ga_utm_i->fields['products_name'],
                   'price' => $ga_utm_i->fields['final_price'],
                   'quantity' => $ga_utm_i->fields['products_quantity'],
       //'category' => $ga_utm_i_category_name->fields['categories_name']
       );
      $ga_utm_i->MoveNext();
     }
    ?>
    <form style="display:none;" name="utmform">
    <textarea id="utmtrans">

    <?php $ga_utm_i_array_displayed = array();
    for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($ga_utm_i_array); $i<$n; $i++) {
    if (!in_array($ga_utm_i_array[$i]['products_id'], $ga_utm_i_array_displayed)) {
    echo ' UTM:I|' . $ga_orders_id->fields['orders_id'] . '|' . $ga_utm_i_array[$i]['product_id'] . '|' . $ga_utm_i_array[$i]['name'] . '||' . sprintf("%01.2f", $ga_utm_i_array[$i]['price']) . '|' . $ga_utm_i_array[$i]['quantity'];
       }
     }

    The more effective way to do the step you mentioned above for "includes/templates/your-template/common/html_header.php" is to create a new file called:
    includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/jscript/jscript_google_analytics.php

    ... and put the code you suggested above into that file instead.

    This will make upgrading Zen Cart easier because it won't have touched the html_header.php core file.

    But being in the includes/templates/your-template/common/ directory, isn't the file untouched anyway?

    yes, it's untouched, but if the next version of zen cart includes an update to the template_default/common/html_header.php file, then YOU NEED TO MERGE THOSE CHANGES into YOUR includes/templates/XXXXXCUSTOM/common/html_header.php file

    I was just suggesting to use the jscript overrides system to save yourself the step.

    drbyte,

    You said to create another file in the jscript directory. Exactly what code should be entered into that file? all of it, or just the stuff thats suppose to be in html_header.php?
    and the rest of it is as stated? or does all the code go into that one file?

    Any help would be great

    sorry for the double post, but im noticing something that might be a problem


    for some reason the tpl_checkout_sucess_defualt.php file is located in

    /includes/templates/template_defult/templates

    is this correct, or did i mess something up when i updated??????

    everything has been functional, although this dont seem to be the correct structure that you guys have listed here...

    You have to set it up as an "e-commerce" site. It's hidden somewhere in the Google Analytics settings.

    Default Re: Google Analytics update and YAHOO conversion tracking

    Regarding YAHOO conversion tracking, it gives a single file like:

    Example of a basic HTML document using recommended tagging method
    HTML Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Sample HTML File</title>
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    <!-- Overture Services Inc. 03/01/2003
    var ov_tagVersion = "1.0.0";
    var ov_accountID = "XXXX";
    var ov_queryStr = "?" + "tv=" + ov_tagVersion + "&ai=" +
    ov_accountID + "&rf=" + escape(document.referrer);
    var ov_convImage = new Image();
    ov_convImage.src = "//oa.overture.com/Conversion.gif" +
    ov_queryStr;
    // -->
    </SCRIPT>
    </head>
    <body>
    This is the content of your web page.
    </body>
    </html>
    Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I tried putting my file in a similar file to jscript_yahoo_conversion.php (along the lines of Dr Byte's suggestion) but it's not including it. Can two javascripts be called? Or have I made a typo?
