Extension talk:Google Analytics

Ok...added this extension and I can't get it to work properly. Google analytics works fine with my wordpress blog. On the status I see *Waiting for Data...

Here is what the script code looks like.

On google it is:

  _uacct = "UA-xxxxxxx-2"; urchinTracker;

While on my site source it is:

_uacct = "UA-xxxxxxx-2"; urchinTracker;

Any ideas? Thanks. Kdewalt 04:18, 2 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I have updated the code, just moved that line down 2. Update your code and you'll be all set!  davec 02:37, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

My question is: how do i do this within the wiki?

 * He replied in email, and his reply was basically "No it doesn't do that, sorry I don't have time to update it."
 * I took it upon myself to hire someone to write the script, and I am sharing it with the world. You will need to use the other analytics extension, which it relies on.  Here is the solution.  davec 19:05, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

New version of Google analytics
It seems that there is a new version of Google analytics. See there : http://www.google.com/support/analytics/bin/answer.py?answer=75129. Do you plan an update of your extension for non IT guys ? Thanks, 1001nuits 16:09, 14 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'd love it to be updated to. This makes it nice not having to mess with the code. --74.77.80.214 02:42, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

How do I use this to limit GA results to a single category?
Rather than create a namespace so that there's a common URL pattern across all designated articles, I want to track Google Analytics for a specific MediaWiki category — can I do it with this extension or another? Thanks in advance. --Torley 21:25, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Better way of implementation
Hi guys, i just downloaded your extension and read the code. You simply exclude the GA Code from getting executed if the user is a bot or a sysop. I think there is a better way of implementing this feature. Read about custom variables in Google Analytics here! If you use a custom variable "usertype", you don't loose any information...
