Simple Google Analytics - Support

[knighs2]

Hi,

I've followed the instructions for this plugin, but if I append the PHP code to the bottom of the tpl_footer page it makes my footer disappear. If I append it before the closing body tag, it makes my whole site disappear.... In the page source you can only see the head, not the body...

any ideas? Thanks!

nocabt,

if im not mistaken, you dont add code to the foorter. its the tbl_main_page.
Google Anylitics by Andrew uses the tbl_footer but not this mod.

I have a question. I have installed this module do I still have to insert the code from Google Analytic base also. I had Andrews installed but I really didn't like that one so good. Thank you

which format is the google account number suppose to be entered in the configuration?

for example if google shows me my number is UA-1234567

is it like this UA-1234567-1

or UA-123456-7

The number should bee entered EXACTLY as Google shows it. If your number has the "-" then add it. If not don't.

Google has a variety of ways of giving the tracking number.

i cant seem to get it to work, when i look at my source it has the google analytics account number on the bottom of every page. on google's end everything is fine because when i used to just have a "coming soon" splash page as my home page it was reporting. but i've never had it report on my zencart pages. right now im using it with the urchin tracker.

Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean "Google Base" or the Analytics "base code"? If you had Andrews version in you may want to make sure you completely uninstall that before using this one. Mine should clean up some of that upon install, but to be safe you might want to uninstall and remove all file changes made by Andrew's.

This version operates in a lightweight manner and does not need the number of files that Andrew's version requires.

Thank you for you response. I have completely uninstalled Andrews even the data base. What I was saying is do you have to add this

<script type="text/javascript">
var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-4694054-1");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script> 

To the tpl_main_page.php along with the this code in the module

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

This is what I need to know. Thank you

No. You do not need (or want) both codes in there. The only thing you need to install on the tpl_main_page.php is the:

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

portion of code. My contribution does the rest for you.

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if anyone has had a similar issue to me.
Ive been running the mod and after some time testing which urls to put in finally got Anylitics to capture goal data.

However although im showing X amount of people clicking on product pages its not showing that ANY of them moved on to view cart, billing etc Although there have been sales. View cart gets no hits at all.

I removed view cart and just had product pages and then login/billing etc
Again lots of hits but no one moving from products to checking out.

Instead it shows the customers as entering on the billing page, or the login etc and then it goes down the funnel.

I do have SSL on the checkout. Is there a problems going from non SSL to SSL ? Could that by why they dont travel down the funel ?

Thanks
