Hello Rocketeers!!!
Has anyone been able to gather demographic information from Google analytics?
I go here to edit my analytics file
JOOMLA_ROOT/libraries/gantry/features/analytics.php" file
I changed:
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','__gaTracker');
__gaTracker('create', '<?php echo $this->get('code'); ?>', 'auto');
__gaTracker('send', 'pageview');
to this:
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','__gaTracker');
__gaTracker('create', '<?php echo $this->get('code'); ?>', 'auto');
ga('require', 'displayfeatures');
__gaTracker('send', 'pageview');
But when I do this for some reason, my Google Analytics ceases to function anymore. I wonder if there is something wrong here.
If anyone had any successes with this, I'm all ears!!!
Thank you for reading.

You can't mix __gaTracker and GA in this reference.
Try using this in the edit to see if it makes any difference.

It won't validate.
I add like this
// start of Google Analytics javascript ?> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','__gaTracker'); __gaTracker('create', '<?php echo $this->get('code'); ?>', 'auto'); __gaTracker('send', 'pageview'); __gaTracker('require', 'displayfeatures'); <?php // end of Google Analytics javascript
Google suggests add this?
ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://' : 'http://') + 'stats.g.doubleclick.net/dc.js';
Maybe I'll just skip the validation process. Will wait 24 hours for confirmation for demographics. - Last Edit: 11 years 3 weeks ago by KO.
