Simple Google Analytics - Support

[econcepts]

Trying to read through this thread. I was trying to update to google analytics 1.2.2 in my cart 1.3.8a. Does the new ga.js code not work?

I have edited and changed some files and now I'm lost.

Also where does this code go????

 
<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-xxxxxx-x");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script>

Thanks.

The ga.js code works, but GOOGLE has a glitch on their end which causes the ecommerce tracking to now work properly (missing data at random). So I suggest using the Urchin version until they fix the bug on their end.

You do not have to insert code as you indicated anywhere on the site.

All you have to do is insert one line (see step 3 of the install) into the tpl_main_page.php" page. That inserts the code automatically onto your pages in the proper location.

Don't forget to ad your tracking code in the Admin configuration.

In the code you show it still says "UA-xxxxx-x" and that is for sample purposes only. You need to add your tracking code in the Admin in order for that to be replaced with your own.

Hey econcepts, it works now. For some reason, when I first got the code, it was missing a dashed number at the end. When I checked it a couple of days ago, there was still the original number. When I just checked it now, google had added another number to my code. It works now. Thanks.

Im trying to download this, but the file I get from the zc downloads is called.

simple_google_analytics_1-2-2.zip

My system tells me its not a standard archive and will not open it.

I try to get it from your site and your site page does not open.

Can anyone send it to me please, prefferably as a zip or rar file.

I was having the same problem. Are you on a Mac? If so, right click on the ZIP file and choose 'Open With > Archive Utility' and that will open it. For whatever reason, StuffIt will not open this ZIP file.

Can somebody help me out here? I installed 1.2.2. over a week ago right before I went on vacation. When I got back yesterday and logged into my analytics account, I realized it hasn't been working – even though it says it IS receiving data.

I am using Zen Cart 1.3.7.1 and my website is www.queerrepublictees.com

Thanks in advance for any help and/or advice.

UPDATE: I seem to have fixed the problem. The analytics account ID located under 'Analytics Settings > Edit Account and Data Sharing Settings' in my Google account dashboard did not have the extra '-1' on the end.

In other words, pull the correct account ID from the code that Google generates for you on this page: 'Analytics Settings > Profile Settings > Tracking Code' instead of this page: 'Analytics Settings > Edit Account and Data Sharing Settings'

Thanks again, Eric, for this mod!

The goals I set up in Google Analytics aren't working and I am getting conflicting information from different sources on how to set them up.

Can someone please answer the following?

Do I use my entire URL in the goals such as:
'https://www.your-site.com/index.php?main_page=create_account_success'

Or do I just use what comes after the domain name such as:
/index.php?main_page=create_account_success

THANKS

hey all,

sorry to interject like this...i've gone back through this thread in an attempt to get to the bottom of the google analytics issue i'm having. But nothing I try seems to work, so I think it's time to consult the experts.

Relevant details:

-I'm using version 1.2.2 of the "Simple Google Analytics" mod.
-My Zen Cart installation is 1.3.7.1.
-The mod installed seamlessly
-I have entered my Analytics account number in the Zen Cart admin.
-I've gone to my Google Analytics settings and chosen, "Yes, E-Commerce Site"

Google Analytics is successfully reporting stats and all the other information. The thing that is *not* working, however, is ecommerce integration.

I've been messing with this for weeks now in vain. Talk about frustrating!

my web store is: http://www.homageclothing.com/store/

Any ideas/help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much in advance.

Hello,

Perhaps this subject has already been solved but I can't find it afetr hours looking into the forum. thank you to redirect to the Post if it is the case.

I implement Google Analytics successfully (manually, not using Simple Google Analytics Mod). And I want to track sales. But, when using Paypal IPN, my customers didn't return consistently to my store (in fact they should click the "return to store" link). The result is they never go to checkout_success page and then Google Analytics can't record the events as a sale.

Do you know any solution to achieve that?
