Google analyses not working

[Dennis]

Greetings

Soon after I installed Elxis I added my Google tracking code but, it isn’t tracking anything and my visitors stats are down for 99%!

Any reason it doesn’t work?

make sure that your tracking code is just above </body> tag..

[Dennis]

Do I have to add the tracking cote too? Why isn’t that mentioned where I add my code ID?
In which file do  add the code?

Are you using a module? or trying to add it manually?

Do I have to add the tracking cote too? Why isn’t that mentioned where I add my code ID?

it is obvious that elxis can not tell you where somebody wants you to add a custom code?

in other words=> the person who offer the code has to tell you where to put it!

Ps. do not mix the ID with tracking-code

[Dennis]

Well, I wonder why offering an add-on to just add your tracking code ID but also need 
to put the whole code into a file??

Many cms offer this same feature but, without adding the tracking code into a file as it is
the purpose (I assume) to just add the ID and bingo, go to google and watch your stats!

playback your question!

what-where-how are you trying to do!

i am trying to guess what are you looking for..! 
i can not play bingo!


and you nat not see stats right away.. you have to wait a couple of days..

ANY ONE THAT ASKING FOR HELP HAVE TO BE CLEAR...

what have you installed-where-how-and what is actually your problem

in every new post you say something new..

1- trackind code
2-id code
3- addon module

i am not the god to read your mind!

First off, I am referring to my code ID and the title of this post tells which module I am referring too but,

Administration > Modules > Site Modules > click on > Module Google Analytics > and add your tracking ID into > AnalyticsCode:

in > Pages / Items  > choose “All” (on right hand site)

In my ignorance (trusting without double checking) I assumed this would just work! but is does not.

So my question is, into which file do I add the tracking code including my tracking ID so google will track the traffic?

[ks-net]

post title(and firsts post)  not referring to a module.. but in google analytics in general!

there are 3 ways to add google analytics at you site...

1- manually add the tracking code to your index of your tpl  before </body> tag
2 -making your own module and manually add the tracking code , the same way as we do with google-adsense => http://wiki.elxis.org/wiki/Google_AdSense_custom_module
3 by using google analytics module .. installing - adding your tracking id and publishing it in a position that exist in your tpl.


that is module is on beta stage, second it is not an official release from elxis-team so it is not offered by elxis but from a third-part company, and last as you see in elxis downloads it is not yet verified.. of cource this not means that it is not working.

In my ignorance (trusting without double checking) I assumed this would just work! but is does not.

i dont know what you mean here... didn't you checked analytics-control-panel that the tracker works?

is the tracker recognized?

Thank you,

This is a 10 months old site which I changed the CMS as the one I used didn’t work out as expected,
therefore the google tracking code was fully functional before and I have two other CMS sites with this
same function, just added the code ID and bingo, it worked from day one.

Therefore I didn’t check if it did work or not, just assumed it would work.

[Dennis]

Just one more, where will I find this file?

1- manually add the tracking code to your index of your tpl  before </body> tag

[ks-net]

this the index.php file inside your template folder

templates/your-template-name/index.php

[ks-net]

same function, just added the code ID and bingo, it worked from day one.

Therefore I didn’t check if it did work or not, just assumed it would work.

if you used the module from elxis-downloads you have to publish it in position that exists in your tpl for example "left"

personally i never used a module for analytics... i always add it at the very bottom of the page before </body> manually!
it is only one time copy-paste!
