Onsite Search Reporting?

I've looked for an answer, but there's nothing worse than doing a search that includes the keyword "search" :blink:

I was wondering if there was any reporting available for Onsite Search... you know, searches that are done for products on your web site. I would like to see what people are searching for.

My client is running Zen Cart v. 1.3.9d, probably waaay out of date, but my hands are tied.

Thanks!

Re: Onsite Search Reporting?

Thank you, nothing really came up except for a way to use Google Analytics to do this. I guess that's the answer I'll go with unless someone knows of a specific way to do this in Zen Cart.

Nobody's tracking this unless you set it up

Re: Onsite Search Reporting?

A search of "search" in add-ons comes back with too many results. Is there a title of an add-on that you recommend?

My client is running Zen Cart v. 1.3.9d, probably waaay out of date, but my hands are tied.Tied? Not really. Upgrading from 1.3.9d is just a matter of copying over a handful of files changed in 1.3.9e and then those changed in 1.3.9f, then g, then h.
If you've customized any of those files for some (unlikely) reason, then you'll need to adjust accordingly. Conflicts are generally rare.
