Hi Mate,

Thanks for this mod, was simple enough to install. All seems to be working so far but need to wait until we make a sales before I can confirm if the e-commerce side works as I could never get it to work on the standard mod.

Thanks again

No problem.
Thanks for the heads up on v4.4.2

Oh my mistake. I guess I put that together too quickly. Thanks for the catch I’ll update the code.

Hi Jason,
Our comments overlapped.
See my reply to my own comment above.

Ah, I worked it out.
In the version of ga_code.tpl for the 4.4.x package, you have the call for the Google account number as:
{$config.Google_Analytics.ganalytics_code}

It should be:
{$config.Google_Asynchronous.ganalytics_asynchronous_code}

Replacing the former with the latter fixes the issue.

Rupert, I have it installed on a 4.4.3 installation and I am not getting the same result. Can you try it again, but this time clear your cache and also clear your template cache on your server for X-Cart?

Should be at:
x-cart dir /var/templates_c/

Depending on how your X-Cart is set up this might cause the issue. I’ll investigate the code and see if there might be something there. Although you may consider upgrading to 4.4.3 anyway, there are a lot of bugs in 4.4.2 especially with the address book.

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the mod.
Just installed it on v.4.4.2 and can only get the Google Account number to show up in the asynchronous code if I have the old Google Analytics mod switched on as well as the field for the account number in there populated.
(that of course means that I have both old and new codes appearing on the page).
Any idea on what I can do to fix this (short of hard coding the account number into the ga_code.tpl).?

Many thanks
Rupert

There is a new plugin uploaded with 4.1.x files and 4.4.x files, and I’ve updated the version to support Speed Tracking in the new Google Analytics panel.

Just remember speed is a ranking factor now.

No I haven’t. I don’t have a copy of X-Cart 4.1.x available to me any longer. It’s pretty out of date. There has been a little interest in it, if I could get my hands on it I could take a look. I have a license but as you know QualiTeam only has the latest releases in their file area, and all my clients have upgraded.
