@santiagobiali do i have to enter all google tracking code or just the ID?

santiagobiali

arjoni just the id

arjoni

santiagobiali Thank you. Maybe you should write that to the plugin because it says tracking code. ?

arjoni nice find.

0.3.2 is out.

Kulga it has the site id option now.

santiagobiali I successfully got it working!
With piwik, If you're using a https flarum install and sending the tracking through http for the piwik.js, it won't work.
Had to get a cert for my piwik install so it could use https and suddenly everything worked ?

Also, site id works perfectly!

santiagobiali

Kulga thanks for the reply.
The extension uses the same protocol of the forum, if you are using https you browser blocks http connections as a safety measure.

Glad you got it working ?

0.3.3 is out.

Great Changes, a page in admin was added, it shows piwik's(only, for now) dashboard in flarum.
You can add/remove/move the blocks and let it the way you want!

santiagobiali Very interesting, how did you integrate that? Is it just an iframe?

santiagobiali

Franz yes it is.

Kulga

Looks like it uses Widgetize in Piwik

Display any Piwik report in your website or app with a simple Embed HTML tag.

Despite the user being used (per the auth token) I notice it only displays the correct (current) site even though it has view permissions for other sites. That's really good ?

Kulga it choses the site by the site Id that is being used to display the tracker in the forum. So it displays the dashboard of the forum that the extension is tracking.

I think Kulga meant to say it's great you implemented it like this ?

Just a suggestion: a good choice for the next integration might be https://segment.com/

We use them to send tracking data to a bunch of services simultaneously. They've gotten extremely popular in the startup world, and it would allow you to say you support "all" of the analytics providers for people who are willing to use a 3rd party service.

They're also open source, so integration is pretty simple, e.g.:

barillax we will check it out, thanks for the tip. Actually never heard of them before.

No problem! Thanks for all of your hard work, Flarum is really looking great.
