hyn/analytics ; google analytics website statistics

luceos

This extension allows easily adding the google analytics tracking code to your forum.

repository

download

You can use composer to install the extension. If you have composer installed globally on your system, connect with ssh (or a console) and run the following command from the flarum installation directory:

composer require hyn/flarum-analytics

If you have a local composer.phar file, use the following command in the flarum installation directory:

php composer.phar require hyn/flarum-analytics

Visit your admin - extensions page afterwards and enable the analytics extension, a popup will be shown to add your UA tracking code. Once entered, the tracking code is automatically added on the forum at the end of the page.

If you want to update the tracking code, just visit the extensions page in your admin and click on the three horizontal dots appearing after hovering over the extension.

BlackSheep

luceos Can you make it compatible with some others analytics tools ? Like Piwik for example.

Franz

Cool! You may want to announce this in this feature request thread, too, once a release is done. 🙂

luceos

BlackSheep Like Piwik for example.

yes ofcourse that is very simple, but let me get to a first preliminary release first, ok?

luceos

BlackSheep Like Piwik for example.

Piwik requires a tracker url and a site id? Are those the only two things (at first) to configure?

BlackSheep

luceos Yes, of course, haha 🙂

luceos

BlackSheep updated TS to reflect supported trackers

luceos

A first release is available for all forums running the latest dev-master.

Do not install on beta-2!

Here's what my wordpress piwik tracking code looks like

Pastebin (for some reason posting the code here make it disappear but still exist in edit. Is it being run? Seems like a bug..

<!-- Piwik -->
<script type="text/javascript">
  var _paq = _paq || [];
  _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
  _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
  (function() {
    var u="//piwik-site.tld/";
    _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
    _paq.push(['setSiteId', 1]);
    var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
    g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.defer=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
  })();
</script>
<!-- End Piwik Code -->

piwik-site.tld is where your main site is where you'd lookup statistics.

To connect it looks like it needs to know the location and its auth token.

Kulga Weird, I don't see your code, it's somehow hidden.

It's showing if you're removing  and :

<script type="text/javascript">
  var _paq = _paq || [];
  _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
  _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
  (function() {
    var u="//piwik-site.tld/";
    _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
    _paq.push(['setSiteId', 1]);
    var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
    g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.defer=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
  })();
</script>

Qiaeru I see. Odd.. Here's a pastebin of the code..

luceos

So the complete url + an access token, that makes sense. I'm thinking about making this a separate page instead of a popup, just like the tags extensions, it's another milestone for me if I can make that work.

samymassoud

@luceos i'm trying to use it with the latest version but it didn't appear in control panel !

luceos

My apologies. It's not compatible yet. I have been ill for a few weeks now. Once I am back in the saddle, I'll move all my extensions to the latest beta.

samymassoud

I hope you will be fine and go over through your illness.

and take your time 🙂

luceos

samymassoud i have moved this extension to the top of my queue; it's almost ready for use again.

luceos Hi luceos, when I activates your extension I get a blank page all over my forum and I must edit database to desactivate it. Maybe I did it wrong? I downloaded (wget) extension from repository and enabled it in panel admin. It 's ok?

I tried differents names for the extension's folder, like flarum-analytics, hyn-analytics, ot just analytics, etc. It seems not work.

jsthon

Hiob me too
