FriendsOfFlarum Analytics - tracking user visits

Gatsu

FriendsOfFlarum Hi, thank you for extension.
I have a problem, I don't see Analitycs page in my admin panel, why?

clarkwinkelmann

Gatsu extensions settings can be found in the extension settings modal. A page only appears if you provide a Matomo token, in which case that page will show an iframe with the Matomo admin panel.

clarkwinkelmann Hi, thank you!

Where find I matomo token?
Where do I insert the token?
In config I see only google code and piwik code ( I dont use it)

clarkwinkelmann

Gatsu the placeholder text inside of the token field tells you where you can find the token in your Matomo dashboard.

Personally I never used this feature, I prefer to access the Matomo dashboard directly. This is just a simple iframe to the same page you get in Matomo.

Filling in the token has no other purpose outside of enabling the iframe. It's not a requirement.

Matomo is the new name of Piwik. The extension might still say Piwik, I haven't checked.

@luceos clarkwinkelmann
installed analytics extension but its not showing in sidebar

clarkwinkelmann

DanielOX the admin panel tab only activates if you're using Matomo and only if you provide a Matomo API Key. It's just an iframe to the Matomo admin panel.

All settings are found in the settings modal. There are no other visible pages added by this extension.

DanielOX

clarkwinkelmann what is Matomo, i provided google analytics api key

clarkwinkelmann

DanielOX you will find your analytics in Google Dashboard.

Matomo is the other analytics software supported by this extension. Matomo can be self-hosted.

DanielOX

clarkwinkelmann so u r saying that google analytics does not work anymore with this extension?

clarkwinkelmann

DanielOX it works. But you can only see Google Analytics stats from Google's own dashboard at https://analytics.google.com/analytics/web/

I have now removed the second screenshot from the first post because I'm fed up with all the questions about that feature. The iframe thingy has always been a Matomo-only feature. I personally think that feature should never have been implemented, half of this thread content is about it and I'm pretty sure almost nobody is using it.

DanielOX

@clarkwinkelmann the extension asked me to enter google analyticsID and i did, now its not showing

DanielOX

clarkwinkelmann no extension is not displaying in my sidebar

clarkwinkelmann

DanielOX there is no sidebar.

Fill in your Google Analytics credentials.
Wait for visitors or visit the website yourself.

0.9.0

Moved from Flagrow to FoF namespace See UPGRADING note below
Added support for Google Optimize and/or GTM (Thanks giffgaff)

Updating

composer require fof/analytics
php flarum migrate
php flarum cache:clear

Composer should remove flagrow/flarum-ext-analytics and replace with this. If for some reason it does not, remove the old package using composer.

Don't forget to enable the extension, as it will be disabled at first!

IanM Enabling the new updated version I got this 'problem' on my forum pages refresh:

Analytics Disabled

Analytics Enabled

IanM

mekici Yes, the old packagist marked abandoned and suggests the new one. I did manage to install from the new fine just now.

What is the error you're seeing?

mekici

IanM I found that there was no problem when I canceled and tried again because the installation was taking too long. Everything is OK.

IanM

robinodds do you see any console or log errors?

robinodds

IanM

robinodds either the cache was not cleared after upgrading the extension, or there is an error in the GTM code entered in the extension settings.

IanM

0.9.1

Fix errors when only Google Tracking Code ID was provided/enabled (robinodds )

Updating

composer require fof/analytics:^0.9.1
php flarum cache:clear
