    Default Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

    Hi,

    I have a problem with SGA and ecommerce revenue... I have JAM affiliate installed aswell, and that seems to mess up the GA code, as the JAM has its own tpl_footer (placed in a folder called .../[my template]/checkout_success). That footer overrides the other one, and thus removes the SGA code from checkout success - where I need it to be, to track revenue etc...

    Any idea how to work around this?

    Yes, the fix for how to integrate the two (JAM and SGA) can be found here:

    Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page (in the comments section). I've detailed out how to integrate the two there.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Question: once this is all setup and configured - analytics and conversion tracking done - should the checkout_success page contain some sort of analytics code at the bottom?
    I just processed on offline order (the lead was generated through the website but not through the cart) to test everything, and the final checkout_success page contains no tracking code.

    edit: tracked the problem: I extracted into my zenCart folder on my HD and missed the google_analytics folder inside includes/templates/my_template (lol)

    Stuck it back in, refreshed the checkout_success page, and tracking code is now there. Let's see if it turns up tomorrow.

    If I only have a few sales already, is there any way I can enter them manually, at the times they happened?

    You can't enter them through Zen Cart unless of course you checkout.

    You also can't add them through GA (directly) but might be able to come up with a "fake" thank you page that has the code (goal tracking only ... likely won't work for ecommerce as that is dynamic in nature) hit that page and it should register the sale.

    My suggestion would be to simply keep a log of the missed sales since the tracking code and know they are there. Unless there were a ton, it really won't make a difference in the overall picture of things anyhow (bigger samples provide better measurement.)

    Riiight... I think I did what I was supposed to, but I have two problems now. First, I didn't find the yourdomainhere in the code, and second, the footer is messed up on my site (www.hjemmemamma.com/nettbutikk).

    Where did I go wrong?

    "yourdomainhere" refers to your actual domain (replace that text with your actual domain name.)

    I looked at your site and it does not appear that you have the Google tracking installed at all now.

    What you need to do is follow the instructions at the link I provided very closely. That should get you exactly what you need.

    Let me know if that helps.
