FriendsOfFlarum Analytics - tracking user visits

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.

clarkwinkelmann no extension is not displaying in my sidebar

DanielOX there is no sidebar.

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

robinodds

IanM Both GTM code ID and Optimize Tracking Code are empty. I cleared the cache many times

IanM

robinodds Ok, I assume the error disappears if you disable the Google Analytics section of the extension, but leave the extension itself enabled?

To confirm (to help track down the problem)

You have a valid entry in Tracking Code ID, and both GTM Code, Optimize Code are empty (also no whitespace there)?

I need to understand the exact circumstance so that I can investigate fully

robinodds

IanM I assume the error disappears if you disable the Google Analytics section of the extension, but leave the extension itself enabled?

Yes

IanM You have a valid entry in Tracking Code ID, and both GTM Code, Optimize Code are empty (also no whitespace there)?

Yes again. GTM and Optimize Code do have only the placeholder text 'GTM-XXXXXXX'

IanM

robinodds Thank you. I will begin investigating this now

robinodds

IanM works fine now, thanks

@santiagobiali
Is there an update planned, so that Matomo also works? Actually it doesn´t work because of the old piwik code.

clarkwinkelmann

SecurityDog did it stop working? I know we're still using the older "piwik" names and paths but I'm not aware of Matomo dropping the backward compatibility yet. I'm successfully running the extension with the latest Matomo on my website.

SecurityDog

Okay for me it doesn´t work, but I disabled it now, because of DSGVO & GDPR ... Living in EU with an own website isn´t the easiest these days ...

SecurityDog use Matomo instead. I do and reside in the UK.
