Hi there.
I install the Google analytics plugin on my blog (v1.2.2), and I activate download and link tracking.
But after 10 days I haven't any result on GA.
Any idea about what is wrong ?
My website :
http://blog.jeuxdepied.org
Thanx !

Yes, I use the right account number : all stats seems working, except download and link tracking.
I think I got a hint, but I'm not sure it leads to the answer :
I migrate my blog from "
http://one.eye.pied.free.fr/blog" to "
http://blog.jeuxdepied.org" a few month ago. So, in GA my account is named "
http://one.eye.pied.free.fr/blog" with the account number after it, but my profile is named "
http://blog.jeuxdepied.org".
Is that the problem can come from there ?

Fixed, at least I hope so. I'll test it over the weekend and if it's working, I send it to Garvin for Spartacus.

It seems it work : I got one result in ga for an extlink today.
But :
Some download link were detect like extlink :
Code: Select all
<a onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/extlink//uploads/podcasts/OEC02_mix.mp3']);" href="http://blog.jeuxdepied.org/uploads/podcasts/OEC02_mix.mp3">mp3</a>
These link is generate by the "easy podcast plugin" that I have lightly modified.
In my memory those links were correctly detected as download in the previous version.

I didn't changed anything in the detection, only in the generated link. But I will check that asap.

do you have mp3 as downloadable extensions in the setup?
Is blog.jeuxdepied.org in the list of internal hosts?
Maybe post a screenshot of your configuration.

Everything seems to be well configured :
- All checkbox to "yes"
- download to track : "zip,rar,mp3,pdf"
- Hosts : "blog.jeuxdepied.org"
- User to not track : none
Link for Pdf files in sidebar and entries looks right :
Code: Select all
<a onclick="_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/download/uploads/documents/O_weens.pdf']);" target="_blank" title="O_weens.pdf" href="/uploads/documents/O_weens.pdf">O'Ween's, page de base</a>
The problem came from a link generate by the "Easy Podcast Plugin". I hacked it for changing the player and add link to direct download, RSS, and I-Tunes.
Here is the code I wrote for this block in "podcast_player.php":
Code: Select all
/* XSPFPLAYER remplacé par Dewplayer*/
@DEFINE('PLUGIN_PODCAST_XSPFPLAYER' ,'
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="#plugin#/player/dewplayer/dewplayer.swf"
width="200" height="20" id="dewplayer" name="dewplayer">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="movie" value="#plugin#/player/dewplayer/dewplayer.swf" />
<param name="flashvars" value="mp3=#url#&showtime=1" />
</object>
<div style="text-align:center;">
<a href="#url#" alt="Télécharger en mp3"><img style="border:none;" src="#plugin#/img/32_download.png" alt="Télécharger" title="Télécharger en mp3"/></a>
<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=346546143" alt="S\'abonner via I-Tunes"><img style="border:none;" src="#plugin#/img/32_podcast.png" alt="I-Tunes" title="S\'abonner via I-Tunes" /></a>
<a href="http://feeds2.feedburner.com/OneEyeClub" alt="S\'abonner par RSS"><img style="border:none;" src="#plugin#/img/32_feeds.png" alt="S\'abonner par RSS" title="S\'abonner par RSS"/></a>
</div>
');
Maybe the problem came from this little hack...
