Installation
Checkout from source control
Code Block |

svn checkout https://farcry.jira.com/svn/GA/trunk
to
./farcry/plugins/googleAnalytics
|
Tip |
---|
TRUNK should be mostly stable. But there are specific milestone tags for those who don't want to risk it. |
Copy the "www" folder to a "googleanalytics" folder under your project's webroot or create a web server alias (virtual directory on IIS) as "/googleanalytics" pointed at the plugin's www folder.
Update project constructor
Add googleAnalytics to the plugin list within ./www/farcryConstructor.cfm

Deploy content types
Go into the webtop ADMIN > DEVELOPER TOOLS and deploy all the plugin content types.
Update Google Analytics configuration file
You will need to update the plugins configuration to include your projects specific Google Analytics URCHIN code. This is found under the Content administration tab, in the Google Analytics dropdown.
You must nominate a matching domain to activate GA tracking. Note this feature allows you to nominate different urchin codes for different domains or none at all. For example, you might not want to track stats at all from developer and staging server machines.
Make sure active is always on; this property is deprecated.
Ignore Types for now; its an advanced option that needs a bit of fleshing out. Crawl through the code if you must.
The username and password for the GA API is entirely optional. It is used to pull statistics into the application on demand from Goolge. You require the GA login credentials in order to see stats in the GA webtop overview tab, or to use the "most popular" content publishing rule.
What else?
That's literally it. If GA Plugin detects that you are serving a page from one of the configured domains, it will automatically include the correct urchin code for your domain in the HEAD of your document.
