(Let me know if I should post this question in the Reflex forum)
Can you tell me what is the best method or extension to add Google Analytics to my RT Reflex template on a Joomla 1.7 site?
I found this topic by searching the forum but it's from a post that's a year old so I'm wondering if there's a newer/better extension or method to add Google Analytics to a Joomla 1.7 site with an RocketTheme template:

Thanks for any advice! - Last Edit: 13 years 5 months ago by nemmar.

if you are using a Gantry template the google analytics input box of the features tab of the template manager is good.
Okay, I just enabled the Google Analytics button in the template manager and I added my full Google Analytics account number, such as, UA-123456-7.
However, when I save this setting and refresh my front-end site pages, using Firebug I can't find the Google Analytics UA account number listed in the source code of the pages. I can see the following line of code in the head tag of the pages but not the UA account number:
<script type="text/javascript" async="" src=" www.google-analytics.com/ga.js ">
Am I doing something wrong? Shouldn't my Analytics account UA number show up in the source code of the pages? - NOTE to forum mods: Right-Click is disabled on my site but source code is visible.

if you have the analytics feature toggled on, you should see something like this:or
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-15575703-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

I don't see that in the source code.
Can you take a quick look at my site and let me know if my Google Analytics account UA code is there and I'm just not finding it?
I haven't used Firebug before so it's possible I'm not using the search feature of it properly and the code is there but I'm just not finding it. - Last Edit: 13 years 8 months ago by nemmar.
