The code for Simple Google Analytics is OK on your site. See below. I would just give it sometime to collect data. I see nothing wrong on your site. You may have entered the wrong info on Google end. I don't know.

<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 src="http://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">

var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-xxxxxx-42");

pageTracker._initData();


pageTracker._trackPageview();

pageTracker._trackPageLoadTime();

Thanks for checking I will give it a bit of time and then get back to you if it is still not collecting anything.

I'm still trying to see why when I click "view source" one of my sites shows the Google Analytics data, but my second site doesn't show any of the Simple Google Analytics code at all.

Since the includes/templates/mytemplate/common/html_header.php and tpl_main_page.php are the same for both sites in terms of the Simple Google Analytics installation, would any other file in that common folder be relevant to the "view source" reading the Simple Google Analytics code?

Are their any ways to debug this?

A link to your sites would be nice so we could take a peek.

Countrycharm,

Thank you if you want to look at my site's view source. My site is www.g o k a r a o k e m a c h i n e.com. (I add spaces so that a google search for the site by name will not bring up this post.) My webstats show 350 to 400 visitors a day but Google Analytics just reads zero (I have basically no sales, however, for 2012.) I have taken the sub-domain out of maintenance mode for at least a couple of months now, but that has made no difference.

I don't expect you to really put time into this problem, but any suggestions will be followed. I'm considering just deleting the test sub-domain, and then trying to get Google's attention to index the site. I do not know if it ever was indexed.

You have not installed Simple Google Analytics right. Go back and install it again being careful that all files are named and uploaded in there right places.

Make sure your body tag in /includes/templates/[your_template]/common/tpl_main_page.php
includes this code.
At the bottom of /includes/templates/[your_template]/common/tpl_main_page.php
Copy and paste the following lines of code (found below) just before the </body> tag:

<?php
if (GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_TRACKING_TYPE == "Asynchronous") {
// Do nothing
} else {
require(DIR_WS_TEMPLATE . 'google_analytics/google_analytics.php');
}
?>

1. Once you have completed a successful install, login to your Zen Cart admin and go to configuration->google analytics configuration and set your google
analytics account number and any of the other settings as you see fit.

2. Login to your Google Analytics account and make sure your site is set to "receiving data"
or "waiting for data" (this means you have sucessfully installed the analytics code on your
site.)

3. To take advantage of Google Analytics E-Commerce Tracking, you must login to your Google
Analytics account after installing this contribution and enable e-commerce reporting as follows:

a. Log in to your account.
b. Click "Edit" next to the profile you'd like to enable.
c. On the Profile Settings page, click "edit" next to Main Website Profile Information.
d. Change the E-Commerce Website radio button from No to Yes.
e. Save your changes

I hope this will help.

Hi, Countrycharm, thanks very much for your help.

So far, I have checked the installed code that used to work, and I am wondering why the code you mention is not the same; and also, why you have not mentioned the code that is in the html_header.php file.

In my tpl_main_page.php file I have this code--is it really wrong if it used to work?

<?php
if (GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_TRACKING_TYPE == "Asynchronous") {
// Do nothing
} else {
require($template->get_template_dir('.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'google_analytics') . '/google_analytics.php');
}
?></body>

In my html_header.php file I have the following code:

<?php
if (GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_TRACKING_TYPE == "Asynchronous") {
require($template->get_template_dir('.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'google_analytics') . '/google_analytics.php');
}
?></head>
<?php // NOTE: Blank line following is intended: ?>

Secondly, following your suggestion, I tried to see if my site was receiving tracking, and although so far I cannot see where to edit my site data, I saw that it says "Tracking not installed."

I'm still trying to see where to find out how to install the tracking in Google Analytics, because in my site it does have the tracking code entered in Admin, and it used to track. I now recall that I did change the Google Analytics view to the new version, and am wondering if that has any relationship to losing ability to track my site.

I will just keep looking around the Google Analytics site to see if I can get somewhere. At the moment it takes me everywhere but where the answers are, it seems. I will let you know if I get somewhere with this problem, but in the meantime just have the curiosity about why my tracking code is different from the one you suggest, and why you do not mention the html_header.php tracking code.

Hello everybody!

I install this Google Analytics on my ZenCart website, 1.3.9, and it seemed that it was installed correctly - at least the "Google Analytics Configuration" appeared in the "Configuration" menu and I was able to insert my GA account number into it. But then it stuck - GA says that ...Tracking Not Installed... and I checked the Page Source - GA tracking code was not there... What did I do wrong?

The website (I have just launched it) - www.aptekarus.com

Thanks in advance for any help!

Yaro,

There are a few more steps you need to follow, including some file edits. Go back through the instructions, you'll find the steps you missed.
