Module: Google Analytics Author: Alexander Hass <http://drupal.org/user/85918> Description =========== Adds the Google Analytics tracking system to your website. Requirements ============ * Google Analytics user account Installation ============ Copy the 'googleanalytics' module directory in to your Drupal sites/all/modules directory as usual. Upgrading from 6.x-3.x ====================== If you upgrade from 6.x-3.x (ga.js) to 6.x-4.x (analytics.js) you should verify if you used custom variables. Write down your settings or make a screenshot. You need to re-configure the settings to use custom dimensions or metrics. There is no automatic upgrade path for custom variables feature. All other module settings are upgraded automatically. See https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2795983?hl=en for more details. Usage ===== In the settings page enter your Google Analytics account number. All pages will now have the required JavaScript added to the HTML footer can confirm this by viewing the page source from your browser. Page specific tracking ====================== The default is set to "Add to every page except the listed pages". By default the following pages are listed for exclusion: admin admin/* batch node/add* node/*/* user/*/* These defaults are changeable by the website administrator or any other user with 'administer google analytics' permission. Like the blocks visibility settings in Drupal core, there is a choice for "Add if the following PHP code returns TRUE." Sample PHP snippets that can be used in this textarea can be found on the handbook page "Overview-approach to block visibility" at http://drupal.org/node/64135. Custom dimensions and metrics ============================= One example for custom dimensions tracking is the "User roles" tracking. 1. In the Google Analytics Management Interface (http://www.google.com/analytics/) you need to setup Dimension #1 with name e.g. "User roles". This step is required. Do not miss it, please. 2. Enter the below configuration data into the Drupal custom dimensions settings form under admin/settings/googleanalytics. You can also choose another index, but keep it always in sync with the index used in step #1. Index: 1 Value: [current-user:role-names] More details about custom dimensions and metrics can be found in the Google API documentation at https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/custom-dims-mets Advanced Settings ================= You can include additional JavaScript snippets in the custom javascript code textarea. These can be found on the official Google Analytics pages and a few examples at http://drupal.org/node/248699. Support is not provided for any customisations you include. To speed up page loading you may also cache the Google Analytics "analytics.js" file locally. You need to make sure the site file system is in public download mode. Known issues ============ - Token: The minimum required Drupal 6 version is 6.x-1.14, but for some technical reasons 6.x-6.16 or later is highly recommended. Token module is optional for GA, but if installed you need at minimum this versions or you may experience the issues documented in #1035030. - Ubercart: The minimum required Drupal 6 version is 6.x-2.6. - Chameleon theme fails to add JS code to page. This only works for PHP themes. A workaround is to edit your chameleon.theme file and add googleanalytics_add_js() to chameleon_page() function as below: ... $output .= drupal_get_css(); googleanalytics_add_js(); // Execute theme preprocess functions manually. $output .= drupal_get_js(); ... Manual JS debugging =================== For manual debugging of the JS code you are able to create a test node. This is the example HTML code for this test node. You need to enable debugging mode in your Drupal configuration of Google Analytics settings to see verbose messages in your browsers JS console.
