Simple Google Analytics - Support

100asa:

At this time analytics don't have track your order, Cuda!
:-(

Not sure why you are not tracking....check your analytics account number and then see this page

http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=27203&query=e-commerce+tracking&topic=&type=

and make sure the formating of the hidden form is correct. I was going to check again but looks like you deleted my test account allready. Good luck let us know if you find the problem.

I must be having a really bad day...

the readme says:

admin->configuration->google analytics configuration

My problem is the download doesn't come with any ADMIN files. Is it just me ?

Hi,

I am kind of new at this so sorry if this is a dumb question.

When I am uploading the folders on to my site should the google_analytics folder be installed in:

includes/templates/mytemplate/ ?

or

includes/templates/mytemplates/jscript ?

Do I dump the folder in there or just move the contents of the folder into it. For example should it read:

includes/templates/mytemplates/jscript/google_analytics/
or
includes/templates/mytemplates/jscript/google_analytics.php

I was also wondering if thier is an install for the yahoo site tracker jscript?

Thanks

Hector

When uploading mod files the stucture should be the same as they are in the downloaded file (unless noted otherwise in the readme) this goes for all mods.

So for this mod your path to the google_analytics folder should be:

includes\templates\your_template\google_analytics

There is no jscript folder so nothing to upload there, are you sure you are on the right thread? There is another google analytics mod it is here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43907

there is no yahoo site tracker provided with this mod.....google analytics will track plenty of info and you probably will have no need for the yahoo site tracker....if you are running yahoo ads (or any ads, campaigns for that matter) you can track them by tagging your link urls with google analytics variables see here for an explanation:

let me know if you need anything else

I installed Simple Google Analytics yesterday and I keep checking Google Analytics but I am still getting this message:

Tracking Status Information
Profile Name: https://www.horse-logos.com
Website URL: https://www.horse-logos.com

Tracking Not Installed (Last checked: 2007-04-06 1:08 PM PST.)
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.

This code is on the bottom of my cart pages...

So what did I do wrong or do I just have to wait on Google for longer?

<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> _uacct = "UA-1623104"; urchinTracker(); </script></body></html>

So what did I do wrong or do I just have to wait on Google for longer?

Easy fix for you :clap: .... all you need is your site number (not really sure what it is called to tell you the truth) which is usually just -1 but check your account number in g analytics. So in the admin you need to enter "UA-1623104-1" or if you are tracking more then one site whatever site number this site is...let me know if you need anything else and that I am making sense

I just installed this and it appears to be working, now I am trying to set up a goal. For the "Goal URL" what should I put? I just did a test order and the thank you page url was:

https://www.domain.com/index.php?main_page=checkout_success&zenid=387aa9ebf4f1967f3c7beb63c2d21ade

so do I put:

https://www.domain.com/index.php?main_page=checkout_success

will the zenid at the end cause a problem?

Hi all,

I'm keen to add Google Analytics support to my 1.3.7 cart but am a little confused here..

There seem to be two major threads on the subject. This one I'm posting in refers to The Simple Google Analytics mod that is in the official downloads section. The other thread is not clear at all, but I understand it's a different mod.
Is that the case.. and which one is the one to use?

Also.. I've downloaded the one off the site here and it says it's for 1.3.6 Does it work on 1.3.7? I've searched the forum for that, but no luck.

And finally, if I install it.. just how risky is this mod regarding future cart upgrades? I'm trying not to install anything that is going to make things difficult down the line.

Thanks for any advice on this,
Rob

You do not want your zenid in the url....for goal tracking the checkout_success page is the final goal and you can add all the steps up to that point....just do a test order and everytime you go to the next step enter the url in one of the goal steps...not to hard to do

This should work fine with 1.3.7 and should be easy to upgrade to new releases. There is another mod similar to this one available I just found people were having some dificulties with it and I made this one simple....at least I tried to. Let me know if I can help

Great stuff, thanks for the update Cuda. I'll go and try it out :smile:

I made this one simple....
Wow! You made? Really? Ok, I remove this another mod.

a_berezin let me clarify I reworked your original mod so a lot of the code is yours....I did not mean to offend if I have I appoligize :hug: You do great work...keep it up!!! I was just explaining what this mod was it is a variation of yours....the beauty of open source!

Yes Andrew, I also understood that exactly as Cuda has stated.
The word 'made' in English doesn't have to mean 'created'. It just means he 'changed' or 'altered' it to be simpler.
Thanks both of you.

This "Simple Google Analytics":

• does not support multi-currency operations;
• has problems with some payment systems.

P.S. I don't need any answer or comments.

I posted this over on the Google Analytics Integration thread from a_berezin and just wanted everyone to see it....

a_berezin and all others I apologize for any confusion or strife I have caused anyone....Below is my post that has caused this issue made in the thread for the fork of his mod Google Analytics Integration which I named Simple Google Analytics

a_berezin is the original coder of this mod no doubt and all of his work on zen cart is outstanding and I myself use many of his mods. I would also like to urge a_berezin to not drop his support for this mod...This is the spirit of opensource everyone can have a shot at doing it there way some may like a_berezin's way and others my modded way. It all started out the same much like linux or zen cart for that matter. Zen Cart itself forked from osCommerce and now is much different but some of the code from osCommerce remains. This is a community here at zen cart and the heart of any opensource community is those who are willing to contribute....I saw an opportunity so I contributed this is what keeps opensource alive, I think most will agree with me....

so I really want to say I am sorry for the slight slip in words to a_berezin and urge him to not throw in the towel and keep that fire burning...

Sincerly
Cuda

Newb question:

What's the difference between using this download or just posting Google's tracking code directly to the "templates/custom/common/tpl_main_page.php"?
