Google Analytics Plugin

Adds Google Analytics javascript code to specified pages.

▼ Close info

Since version 2.1, this plugin reads settings from configure. It no longer uses a specific template or skin.

You now have the control which pages to track:

for specific users
- for instance, do not track your own visits
for specific webs
- for instance, do not track visits to System and Trash web
for bin scripts
- for instance, do not track login pages

If you are using a version of this plugin older than 2.1: if you don't change anything, the plugin will continue to work as it did:

The previous setting GOOGLESITEKEY will be used as long as the new setting {WebPropertyId} in configure is not set
The skin setting googleanalytics will be ignored
