9 Adds the Google Analytics tracking system to your website.
14 * Google Analytics user account
19 * Copy the 'googleanalytics' module directory in to your Drupal
20 sites/all/modules directory as usual.
25 In the settings page enter your Google Analytics account number.
27 All pages will now have the required JavaScript added to the
28 HTML footer can confirm this by viewing the page source from
31 New approach to page tracking in 5.x-1.5 and 6.x-1.1
32 ====================================================
33 With 5.x-1.5 and 6.x-1.1 there are new settings on the settings page at
34 admin/config/system/googleanalytics. The "Page specific tracking" area now
35 comes with an interface that copies Drupal's block visibility settings.
37 The default is set to "Add to every page except the listed pages". By
38 default the following pages are listed for exclusion:
46 These defaults are changeable by the website administrator or any other
47 user with 'administer google analytics' permission.
49 Like the blocks visibility settings in Drupal core, there is now a
50 choice for "Add if the following PHP code returns TRUE." Sample PHP snippets
51 that can be used in this textarea can be found on the handbook page
52 "Overview-approach to block visibility" at http://drupal.org/node/64135.
54 A code snippet that creates opt-out by role functionality for unchecked roles
55 can be found in the Google Analytics handbook at http://drupal.org/node/261997.
59 One example for custom variables tracking is the "User roles" tracking. Enter
60 the below configuration data into the custom variables settings form under
61 admin/config/system/googleanalytics.
65 Value: [current-user:roles]
68 More details about Custom variables can be found in the Google API documentation at
69 http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/analytics/docs/tracking/gaTrackingCustomVariables.html
73 You can include additional JavaScript snippets in the custom javascript
74 code textarea. These can be found on the official Google Analytics pages
75 and a few examples at http://drupal.org/node/248699. Support is not
76 provided for any customisations you include.
78 To speed up page loading you may also cache the Analytics ga.js
