Simple Google Analytics - Support

[edwinlloyd]

I have managed to answer this question for myself. In case it is of use to other people, the solution was to:
copy the code from:
\includes\templates\custom\google_analytics\google_analytics.php
lock, stock and barrel into the bottom of:
\includes\templates\custom\checkout_success\tpl_footer.php and save the file.
It now works.

Hi there

I have installed Simple Google Analytics recently, I see Google Analytic is working. But the adwords conversion tracking for signup and purchase do not work. It still says verification failed.

I want to know if I have to put the google provided conversion code anywhere in the website. Please tell me where I should put the code for signup conversion code and purchase success conversion code.

Up to now, I have setup all the google analytics setting in zen cart admin.
Here is my site. http://www.omegagolfshop.com

Please help, I have tried for two weeks already.
Thanks

Some may encounter this error, Check this if you can not get connected to google.
If you don't have 8 digits entered the mod will fail. If you don't have UA-1234567-8 it may be because google doesn't list #8 on the Profile Page and you have left it off or added one of these:
UA-123456-7 or UA-1234567; so your a digit short.


Clickj the test connection from google. It will fail- in the code they will now list your full UA. Make sure this is entered in the Admin so when its called it is the correct and full UA- might want to throw it ini GC also if you botched it like i did.

<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-xxxxxxx-X");
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script>

Hello everyone,

I have successfully installed SGA into my zencart and my status is now "Waiting For Data". I am sure it is correctly installed - so there shouldnt be any problems here.

My questions are regarding conversion tracking (NOT google analytics). And I have searched the whole forum (over a few days) but got more confused after that. So hoping someone can answer these questions individually.

1. I believe I can use SGA for Conversion Tracking. This is because I can Activate Conversion Tracking and also set my Conversion Tracking Number on my zencart Admin at Configuration->Google Analytics Configuration. So I am going to conclude that I can use SGA for Conversion Tracking. Is this correct?

2. How do I use SGA for conversion tracking? Do I just set conversion goals and funnel on my Google Analytics account? And that's all to it?

Or do I have to copy and paste the Conversion Tracking code onto one of my zencart page?

3. If I have to copy and paste the Conversion Tracking code, I will create a Conversion Tracking code for Purchase/Sale. When I create the Conversion Tracking code, what do I put for the "Revenue for your action"? Do I put <?php echo TEXT_YOUR_ORDER_NUMBER . $zv_orders_id; ?> or something else?

4. After creating the conversion tracking code, where do I paste the code to if I want to track purchase? I know it should be one of the file connected to checkout_success but I cant figure out which file and where.

Thanks everyone! I am definitly a Noob as far as this is concern and would appreciate all the help I can get.

I'm facing the same problem as many, the GA data is not accurate, I can see it because I have other means to verify, in fact even the transactions are not well reported on GA's site. This, with the new ga code.

So I was looking around for some solution when I saw this difference :

On Google site the code is :

var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxx-x");
pageTracker._trackPageview();

In /catalog/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/google_analytics/google_analytics.php the code is :

var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(\"" . GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_UACCT . "\");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();

Do we need to correct the google_analytics.php file so that it gets the same code as the one given on https://www.google.com/support/googl...n_US&utm_id=ad
???

Thanks for help

Regards
Hubert

After hours of trying to find a solution to jrox and google analytics, I found that this was the best solution although I'll have to wait till tomororw to check if google logged my test purchases!

I have managed to answer this question for myself. In case it is of use to other people, the solution was to:
copy the code from:
\includes\templates\custom\google_analytics\google_analytics.php
lock, stock and barrel into the bottom of:
\includes\templates\custom\checkout_success\tpl_footer.php and save the file.
It now works.

I just installed this contribution and everything was working and google was receiving data. But then I noticed that my website was getting this pesky "Would you like to display unsecured/secured data?" prompt.
I narrowed it down to this file:
includes/templates/your template/google_analytics/google_analytics.php

I get this prompt in IE 7 but not in Firefox. I'm running ZC 1.3.8a

I've since deleted that file so I wouldn't get that prompt but I still haven't figured out why this is happening.

Any ideas?

Hi all,
I just installed google analytics (zen-cart v1.3.8, a new install), I ran the sql, updated tpl_main_page.php. View source of the page has the tracking code. However, the google anlaytics account kept saying "Tracking Not Installed".
What else I should check? Can someone help me? Thanks so much. Btw, I am using a template from template monster.

Hi

I've just installed this mod in my zencart 1.3.8 - not activity yet but I note that I will have to wait until tomorrow.

I want to link my adwords account into analytics. The setup instructions in admin/configuration say to insert "your unique Google Conversion Tracking ID". I've gone though the process to get the code and got some code to insert into my site. This contains a 10 digit number, the google_conversion_id - I can't see a number anywhere else.

I've two questions

1. Is this the number I insert?
2. Do I still need to insert the code provided into my site?

Many thanks in advance.

Philip
