Simple Google Analytics - Support

[econcepts]

Thank you so much I downloaded it from your site because it's not available on Zen Cart yet. I know this is not the thread for it but any plan to publicly release your mod for Microsoft AdCenter tracking? Thanks!

On the MSN AdCenter tracking, yes, I do plan on releasing that. After the merger of AdCenter and Yahoo, some things have changed and the way the tracking is generated is different.

Google says to place the code just before the tag </header>

Unfortunately that tag does not exist.
Any help would be appreciated

If using this module you do not need to include any tracking as Google indicates (do not follow their instructions.) This module automatically inserts all the proper tracking, on the proper pages, and in the proper locations for you.

Just follow the readme that came with the package.

I have placed the google analytics code in the custom area within the admin configuration/ google analytics

Remove that 'custom code'. You do NOT need to copy and paste any code into the site. The module does this automatically for you. All you have to do is enter your Tracking IDs in the spaces provided in the admin and let the module do the rest.

Just installed SGA 1.2.5 on my Zencart 1.5 dev site. Google analytics does not appear under configuration. I believe in 1.5 either some extya sql is needed, or some extra lines in the function are required to register the module with admin. Can you please check this as SGA is listed on the downloads page as 1.5 compatible? Thanks!

So I upgraded from 1.2.2. I have an odd problem with my configuration menu though. I now have a "Google Analtyics" menu with all of my old options from the previous install.

I also have a NEW configuration menu called "Google Analytics Configuratiion" with just three options:

1. Google Tracking Code Type To Use
2. Add Custom Tracking After Main Analytics Code?
3. Google Custom Code - After

My code seems to be working fine, but the configuration menu thing is driving me a little batty! Any ideas?

We took the "radical" step of removing the ALL the fields relating to GA from the configuration and configuration_group database tables, using phpMyAdmin.

At the same time, we remioved ALL the files (from both the new and old versions).

Then, we did a completely FRESH install of the new mod.

It's not difficult removing the fields from the dbase - but BACKUP THE DBASE BEFORE you do anything inside phpMyAdmin. Exercise care - remember... configuration table AND configuration_group table contain fields that relate to the module.

This should work just fine as is. Do you have any 'Admin Profiles' (passwords etc...) setup? If so, make sure you allow the proper user the ability to see the new addition (Tools > Admin Settings).

Let me know if that helps.

It sounds to me that during upgrade the patch did not see the previous version (for whatever reason). I've never had this happen on an upgrade and it is patch related.

Rather than deleting all the entries as mentioned in the other post you could simply 'move' those items in the 'new' configuration menu to the 'pre-existing' menu option.

To do this you would need to know the group id of the new and the pre-existing menu options. Then either using phpMyAdmin manually alter them and update (changing the group id to the one you want under the three 'stray entries') or write an SQL statement to update this via the admin of zen (if you are versed in that area.)

Let me know if you need anymore info on this.

Hi Eric

Might be worth you adding a description here& in the README to explain how to get the module to display in ADMIN 1.5

Admin > Admin Page Registration

Page Key: (e.g. myModPageName)
Page Name: (e.g. BOX_MY_MOD_PAGE_NAME)
Page Filename: (e.g. FILENAME_PAGE_NAME)
Page Parameters: (e.g. option=1 or, more usually, leave blank)

Note we got it to display by delving directly into the ZC DB and new tables to cater for this..

Good idea Jamie. Thanks for the post!
