Simple Google Analytics - Support

shrimp-gumbo-mmmhhh:

Is Google watching our board? :)

System Message: Analytics Processing Delay from April 30th to May 5th
Google Analytics experienced a data processing error from April 30th to May 5th. Almost all of the data has been recovered and is currently being reprocessed. The recovered data will be reflected in your reports within a few days. Please note that a small percentage of data, particularly in the area of e-commerce reporting, was not recoverable from those dates.
We sincerely apologize for this processing issue and are taking every precaution to prevent such disruptions from occurring again in the future. The Google Analytics Team

I believe information has been updated but it looks like the updates were for the worse as much more information is missing now for these days. Now it almost looks like analytics was shut down from May 1-4.

:oops:

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

Hi Everone,

Simple Question anybody can answer:

Does your visited pages (top content) report in google loook somethinglike this:

/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=68
/index.php?main_page=login
/index.php?main_page=shopping_cart

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

Under "Top Content" is "Content by Title". Click on that. It looks like it picks up meta tag data so put your title in the ZC meta tags. See my attached screen shot.

Yes I agree I am able to see the content by title too but when you are trying to analyze entrance paths and navigation summaries etc you are still stuck with URL's that are not readable.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

The other mod by andrew actually did the names perfectly but it does not do conversion tracking and has html validation issues, but i am sure its is possible to put in a code hack that will do the names correcty, I am no php coder otherwise I would do it but Eric, Andrew or anyone else might be able to....

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

I have seen in a number of instances where the installation of JAM (creating a new "footer" file for the checkout success page) causes problems with the code that is inserted during Google Analytics install which goes on the "tpl_main_page.php" page.

This might be something to look into with the JROX code as well.

To resolve this I have moved users JAM code to the tpl_main_page.php file and added an if then statement as such:


Can you please be clear on this, I am facing the same problem, no conversions showing after JROX is installed , do we remove the includes/templates/xxx/checkout_success folder and replace it with the above code, also the above codes seems incorrect because it only has the closing the tag </table> , we have the foll JROX code,

<?php } // flag_disable_footer ########################################## ## START JAM INTEGRATION WITH ZEN CART ## ## ZC Integration code by DrByte 8/2006 ## ########################################## if (isset($zv_orders_id) && (int)$zv_orders_id > 0 && isset($order_summary) && is_array($order_summary)) { if (!isset($_SESSION['affiliate_order_id']) || $_SESSION['affiliate_order_id'] != $zv_orders_id ) { $_SESSION['affiliate_order_id'] = $zv_orders_id; $commissionable_order_formatted = number_format($order_summary['commissionable_order'], 2, '.', ''); echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="http://www.yoururl.com/affiliates/sale.php?amount=' . $commissionable_order_formatted . '&trans_id=' . $order_summary['order_number'] . '"></script>'; } } ####################################### ## END JAM INTEGRATION WITH ZEN CART ## ####################################### ?>

Please post a complete set of codes to be replaced.

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

I have a problem with Google Analytics, I upgraded and I got this message.

1062 Duplicate entry 'GOOGLE_URCHINTRACKING_ACTIVE' for key 2
in:
[INSERT INTO zen_configuration (configuration_id, configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function) VALUES ('', 'Use Older "urchin.js" Tracking Code', 'GOOGLE_URCHINTRACKING_ACTIVE', 'No', 'This enables you to select which type of tracking code to use (either the older "urchin.js" version or the newer "ga.js" version. By default the system now uses the newer "ga.js" code.

I then uninstalled it, and then installed it again over writing all the old files.

but now there are not configure files in the admin. This is all that shows in the admin.

You should have this file. It is a core file. If you do not see it in your custom folder, then you can copy the version found in the "/includes/templates/template_default/common/ directory and paste it into your custom directory to alter (as such /includes/templates/your custom template/common

That error means that during your uninstall, you either did not uninstall it correctly, or something went wrong during the uninstall.

If you are upgrading (which you will not be now .. it sounds like you'll need to install from scratch since you removed some files) you need to use the upgrade sql patch (not the new install patch).

Using the wrong patch might cause that error.

I would suggest to try to uninstall again, then reinstall.

Post the results here and we'll see where we get.

Thanks!

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

Quick question regarding urchin. Is ga.js working correctly yet? I have read back and the last mention I saw of the issue was a couple months old. Has there been any information released about whether it is working properly yet?

Thank you

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

Hi,

I've followed the instructions for this plugin, but if I append the PHP code to the bottom of the tpl_footer page it makes my footer disappear. If I append it before the closing body tag, it makes my whole site disappear.... In the page source you can only see the head, not the body...

any ideas? Thanks!

nocabt,

if im not mistaken, you dont add code to the foorter. its the tbl_main_page.
Google Anylitics by Andrew uses the tbl_footer but not this mod.

Re: Simple Google Analytics - Support

The number should bee entered EXACTLY as Google shows it. If your number has the "-" then add it. If not don't.

Google has a variety of ways of giving the tracking number.

Not sure what you mean here. Do you mean "Google Base" or the Analytics "base code"? If you had Andrews version in you may want to make sure you completely uninstall that before using this one. Mine should clean up some of that upon install, but to be safe you might want to uninstall and remove all file changes made by Andrew's.

This version operates in a lightweight manner and does not need the number of files that Andrew's version requires.

That is correct. The code for this mode is added to the tpl_main_page.php file not the tpl_footer.php file.

To my knowledge, Google has not yet corrected the problems with their "ga.js" version. I personally am using the urchin version until otherwise noted. It is far more reliable at this point.
