Simple Google Analytics - Support

[27gerd27]

I found the failure myself, if anyone need it - you have to make a change in the sql patch:

SET @t4=0;
SELECT (@t4:=configuration_group_id) as t4
FROM configuration_group
WHERE configuration_group_title= 'Google Analytics Configuration';
DELETE FROM configuration WHERE configuration_group_id = @t4 AND configuration_group_id != 0;
DELETE FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_id = @t4 AND configuration_group_id != 0;

INSERT INTO configuration_group VALUES ('','43', 'Google Analytics Configuration', 'Set Google Analytics Options', '1', '1');


You have to add the red marked ,´43´

is needed for the german ZenCart 1.3.7 Version.

Hello all.

I am trying to get this great mod working on one of my sites but although I think I have followed instructions ok I get the following error on the google analytics page:

"The Google Analytics tracking code has not been detected on your website's home page. For Analytics to function, you or your web administrator must add the code to each page of your website."

Whilst I understand by reading the posts here that this mod does away with the need to add the code to every web page (thanks goodness) I am unsure about what to do to fix it.

Could you please suggest what I could have done wrong here?

Many thanks.

BTW, the URL is www dot mulberrycrafts dot com.

Just a quick update. After trawling a little bit more through the posts here I decided to add the -1 to the end of my account number and it all seems to be working now. Did I miss something or is this just one of those weird days!

Anyway if anybody else has a similar problem do what I did and stick -1 at the end of their ID and it may just resolve the problem.

I have read thru this post and cannot seem to figure out why the google conversion tracker will not work. Here's what i checked so far:

- Made sure i have the google tracking # in the admin section
- Made sure the activate conversion tracking is set to yes
- Have the latest version of the this mod installed
- put the tailing / at the end of the url

but i still get the Verification failed error message on my google adwords campaign management.

The Analytics section of google works fine... i set up conversion goals and they seem to be working (just set them up today, the status says receiving data but i have not seen any goal conversions yet). Just can't seem to figure out why the conversion tracker keeps giving me the verification failed error message on google.

I set this up for the analytics couple months ago, but never looked into tracking or conversion goals until today... so i know everything was installed correctly cause i have been getting other reports on the google dashboard (traffic sources, visitors, ecommerce all work fine and i assume conversion goals will start reporting tomorrow) but just can't set up the conversion tracker.

I have had the same problem. Analytics worked great, but then when I tried to enable conversion tracking the tracking didn't work. I wish I had a suggestion for a fix but I don't. I did notice however that the ecommerce reporting (sales amount in analytics) seems to have completely stopped working around the time that I enabled conversions. I have now disabled conversion tracking in the zencart admin and will see if ecommerce reporting resumes.

Re Tracking not installed error

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 for that - I have been mucking around for days trying to get the tracking working . Could I recommend an update to the simple analytics' read me file? When entering the tracking code given by Google into the Simple Goog. Anal. module admin, users need to make sure that there is a "-1" at the end of the tracking code and if not, add as necessary.

I have conversion tracking enabled... and both my ecommerce reporting and all my goals are working ok.... just the conversion tracking is not working... i contacted google to see what they say they want me to email them conversion tracking code & the url for the site i am tracking. I will let you know what they there response is once i email them the info.

ALSO...

When i view the source on my page is see this:

<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-3341378-1");
pageTracker._initData();
pageTracker._trackPageview();
</script></html>It does not show the google tracking #.... but i have my tracking # in the admin section of zen cart.... so i am not sure if that is the problem.

Where can i find the google tracking code # in the zen cart files???

I am suddenly having problem with my conversion tracking too. Neither my goals or my conversion tracking is working. I have checked the code and everything looks fine.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on?

Ok.... now i am confused.....

I went to check out my google conversion tracking and i had a NEW action/name setup called Purchase/Sale and it had a conversion report!!!



That is great... but i did not set this up.... so is it safe to assume that once you set up the conversion tracking in zen cart admin YOU DONT HAVE TO SETUP ANYTHING IN THE CONVERSION TRACKING PAGE ON GOOGLE???

I thought you had to setup the conversion tracking on the google page??? So that is why it was not working... I JUST NEEDED A SALE!!!

Before all this happened i contacted google to find out why my conversion tracking wasn't working and they gave me the canned response that i did not put the code on "thank you for your order" page. So google is no help at all.

Hope this will help out others who are having problems with the conversion tracking for google Ad words.
