Works brilliantly.

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.)

I have downloaded and installed the files needed, and the SQL patch as per the OP.

I then went to Configuration from the admin panel, then to the Google Analytics, then added my # starting with the UA, UA-50140XX-XX.

We posted the site on a few forums, and according to GA, the site received no traffic, but according to Zen Cart, we got 800+.

Any help as to why this happened would be nice.

Thanks guys.

Two things.

1) Zen cart only tracks "hits". It is not a good indicator of actual traffic received to the site. You need to use Google Analytics to truly get an idea.

This article might help clarify the difference:

2) Post a URL to your site and I'll see if you have it installed on the page.

3) Did you "verify" the url with GA once you added the tracking? Does Google say "Tracking not installed", "Waiting for Data", or "Gathering Data"?

It says gathering data
