Loading google analytics on iweb

I set up my GA account copied the code set it in a html snippet hit applied and published my site.
I am still not connecting with GA and it is telling mw it is not installed.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you are publishing your site to MobileMe you can useiWeb SEO Tool to make the edits on the iDisk server instead of publishing to a folder and then uploading. It's a bit slower but avoids the extra step of local publishing.

Safari 7 won't load google analytics

Some time in the past few days, Safari 7 running in OS 10.9 on a late 2012 iMac stopped loading Google Analytics. GA loads fine in Chrome. Have disabled all extensions and reset Safari, restarted, no dice.

Here is a link: https://www.google.com/analytics/web/?hl=en
And here is a screenshot

Google Analytics in iWeb (continued thread from 'Anchor Tabs in iWeb')

Cyclosaurus wrote:
--it's more precise than widget placement (if you add text the y-axis placemnt will change of course screwing up the entire alignment, which is why this royally screwed up without built-in anchor tags)
I'm glad you got it.
I have a precise method for within page anchors but it is too abstract for people here, so I toned it down with javascript scroll function... and yet, people still don't understand it.
The method dynamically set/changes both source and destination of the anchors during the page load. The trick is how to set the anchors in iWeb Inspector.
Yes, I was impressed with the utlization of the array and for loop to create the references for xyz number of links. The code could've been more bloated, but yours was efficient. I have reverence for your code's efficiency and functionality.
That said, as of iweb3... I can build my own widgets to deal with common things like this. I'd built much more complicated widgets than just within page anchors. Have a look at my page:
http://home.cyclosaurus.com/UnderConstruction.html
I've tinkered wtih C, Java, and Javascript enough to appreciate good code. I am not interested in devoting more time to coding (my emphasis is NLP now), so I can't go into more depth with this, but needless to say, I was impressed with how concise, functional (non-buggy), and intuitive your javacript snippet was.
the "_anchors" variable seems to be handled really well and you set it up for cross-browser platforms (// http:/ == Safari , http:/// == EI7 and FF).
I may scrutinze this more to further my understanding of arrays. This is an article I wrote on arrays during a computer science class in college.
In any case. Clean codekid. quality!
Lastly, I have total control over every widget that I add on my page... I don't have to guess which widget# iweb assigned.
Yes, control definitely is the ultimate result to clean, efficient, functional (non-buggy code). I'm working on a set of principles for social, outside, phone, email, physiology, inside, etc that is "Code" for success. It's very complex and needs to have efficiency, functionality, and cleanliness and concision. OKay. cheers.
"Big Brother (aka apple)" HHAHAAH!!!! I love apple! apple computer isn't THAT controlling, but it's true, some things it's hard to have control of with apple (photo booth save folder is the most recent lol). I'll never use microsfot product again (enormous waste of time and moving backwards in life). so long live apple.
GOOGLE ANALYTICS and your STATCOUNTER code. !!!!!!! I'm in the process of needing to set those up on my site. Did you do that efficiently? Do you recommended any widgets??? I have numerous statcounter projects, but need to get it up on my main site. Do you put statcounter html on every page of your site? is that necessary? Do you need to put a google analytics on every page of your site?? Thanks heaps. (this is probably a seperate thread now). Should we start this as a new thread?
I've bookmarked Cyclo's and Toadie's site for thei helpfulness in the future working with iweb.

Should this be another thread? I think so. The subject has now evolved from anchor tags to analytics and other widgets! lol
Do you host your site on mobileme or 3rd-party? I'm currently using godaddy and everyone has their preference. Regardless of which 3rd-party used, the '09 iweb ability to auto publish to ftp server is extremely handy for quickly checking to see if code/updates/changes made in iweb look and behave the way they're supposed to behave in browsers.

I did not mean to be a joke, I'm serious about it.
apple have poked at my site for some of the stuff that I'm doing.
Not just a controlling big brother... but thieves, they'd ripped off my works.
GOOGLE ANALYTICS and your STATCOUNTER code. !!!!!!! I'm in the process of needing to set those up on my site. Did you do that efficiently?
AFAIK I'm the only one (as now) build widgets that *actually work* with iweb3.
So there is nothing for me to compare with, to know if I do efficient works (in iweb3 context).
Do you recommended any widgets???
No. I do look at other widgets to see how they work and how efficient they are...
But I don't use them, I build my own iweb widgets.
I have numerous statcounter projects, but need to get it up on my main site. Do you put statcounter html on every page of your site? is that necessary? Do you need to put a google analytics on every page of your site?? Thanks heaps. (this is probably a seperate thread now).
It's all depend.
As far as I see so far, people (most of iweb users) add GA and Statcounter thru HTML Snippet...
But they don't realize that by doing so the codes don't track correctly.

Google Analytics breaks iWeb blog comments

Does anybody know a workaround for Google Analytics' breaking of iWeb blog comments? Apparently, from some posts I've read, StatCounter and other traffic stat services break iWeb blog comments, too... so it's apparently an iWeb issue rather than a Google Analytics issue. FWIW, I'm publishing to my MobileMe personal domain. Thanks in advance!

I found a decent way of adding Google Analytics to all pages, without using HTML Snippits (which cause analytics to track those odd page names like widget2_markup.html), that doesn't break MobileMe comments, and doesn't require any post-processing of your iWeb site. Just Publish and go! Open up your iWeb app bundle, and drill down to Contents/Resources/Scripts/Site. Open up the file iWebSite.js in TextEdit (or your favorite text editor), and paste the following at the bottom of the file:
// Begin Google Analytics
gaTrackerId = 'ss-ddddddd-d'; // insert your tracker id here
document.observe('dom:loaded', function() {
var gaJsHost = ( ('https:' == document.location.protocol) ? 'https://ssl.' : 'http://www.') + 'google-analytics.com/ga.js';
var script = new Element('script', { 'src': gaJsHost});
var gaTrack = function() {
if (
!script.readyState
|| /loaded|complete/.test(script.readyState)
var pageTracker = gat.getTracker(gaTrackerId);
pageTracker._trackPageview();
script.observe('load', gaTrack);
script.observe('readystatechange', gaTrack);
document.body.appendChild(script);
// End Google Analytics
Credit to this solution goes to this blog post. I got the idea to find a way of using Google Analytics in Prototype (since iWeb sites use the Prototype JavaScript framework) and found that blog snippit.
And yes, since this is editing the iWeb application bundle, you may need to reapply this hack if/when iWeb is updated. Hopefully though, some enterprising iWeb engineer is reading this and will add proper Google Analytics support to iWeb for us.

Want to use google analytics in iweb. Possible?

i transfered domain to .mac and had to convert site to iweb 08 from dreamweaver. is there anyway to continue using google analytics? google webmaster tools? insert any code? adsense seems to work but google informs me apple will share the profits!
are there any web analytics tools native to iweb?

Shiels,
try the AddGoogleAnalytics automator script from here: <http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/addgoogleanalyticsaction.html>
Works fine for me. Even more, Henrik is very helpful in case of problems.

Kai

Using Google Analytics with iWeb site

Is it possible to use Google Analytics with an iWeb site? They have code they want me to put before the </body> tag.... and I can't find that tag. How do I get the code to show in iWeb? Can I insert this with an HTML snippet?
Thanks!

Hello ruralart,
After saving the automator workflow as a Finder Plugin,
mount you iDisk in the finder (ex. click on the iDisk icon in the left pane of a Finder window),
goto the folder iDisk / Web / Sites , select this folder "sites",
control-click on the folder to run the “Add Google Analytics” workflow.
Note : when you have iDisk Sync = ON, you'll see that the folder "web" is an alias so Automator will not work in this situation. You'll have to turn iDisk Sync OFF.
Kind regards,
Leo

Google Analytics for iWeb

Please help.. I am trying to get google analytics (or anything like that) onto my iWeb site so I can see how many people view it and from where...does anyone know how to do this? I tried to google it.. and I just got even more confused... THANKS!!!

I assume you searched this forum and couldn't find anything?
[google analytics|http://discussions.apple.com/search.jspa?objID=c188&search=Go&q=google+analytics]

Google Analytics and iWeb

I'm attempting to insert an html tag generated by Google Analytics into our website that is published using iWeb (the latest version, sorry, I'm no longer on site). Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
Jeff

Since this is your website, the path to the analytics.js file is not correct :
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~kpauker/Pauker_Lab/People.html
The line in the code where it says :
newScript.src = '/js/analytics.js';
should be in order of preference :
newScript.src = '../../../js/analytics.js';
Or :
newScript.src = '/~kpauker/js/analytics.js';
Or :
newScript.src = 'http://www2.hawaii.edu/~kpauker/js/analytics.js';

Google Analytics for iweb 09 site published to MobileMe

At one point I was able to add Google Analytics to my iweb site that's on Mobile Me. That lasted 2 days, till I republished it. I redid it twice, I thought the same way. The last time was yesterday after changing to new iweb 09 software. I published site to local disk (idisk), then went to Automator and added the Google Analytics code (UA-xxxxxxx-x) again and unchecked "Old Style Analytics Code". I saved as a new "Google Analytics plugin". Then I selected website folder on idisk through Finder. Then control-clicked (to run Google Analytics workflow) and chose the "Google Analytics plugin" from menu. After this, I went back to my site in iweb and clicked on "Publish". I assumed that it published the site in idisk, where I had added Google Analytics. But it's been over 24 hours and no results in Google Analytics.
Through Safari, I went to home page of site, then clicked View, then page source and I don't see the Google Analytics code (UA-xxxxxxx-x) shown so it didn't seem to work. I just don't know where I made a mistake. I don't think its because I changed to iweb 09 because I re-did it the same way in iweb 08 (but did not uncheck the "Old Style Analytics Code") and it didn't work then either. Can't figure out how I got it to work for two days when I first tried it.
Please help. Anyone?

It is now easier than ever. You don't need an outside application, or an automator action at all. I used to use Transmit to upload my site, since I first had to export it to a folder, then run the automator action. I again spent some time looking for how to do it for iWeb 09 and found the easiest (and therefore overlooked) way:
1. in iWeb, create an HTML snippet
2. Copy the Google Analytics code and paste into the snippet.
3. Make the box as small as it can go (although this does not really matter since nothing will display on your site)
4. Copy this snippet and go on each page on your site and paste it.
5. Publish your site.
6. It will take a little bit of time for it to show up on the Google Analyics page, so set it up, then walk aawy for a little bit.
This worked for me right away, and I no longer have to export to a folder and use an action of any kind.

Web Page hangs in Firefox when loading Google Analytics

About 1 month ago I noticed that Firefox hangs when loading websites while loading analytics. I know this because it shows analytics loading on the lower left side of the screen. I've read many posts around the net and I don't have a solution yet. Of course, if I hit refresh, the page reloads fine. I'm a developer and I'm noticing this issue with one of my sites. The site is super clean and I've double checked the code and everything looks ok. I'm trying to narrow down whether or not it's specific to Firefox or not. I'm not really noticing this issue in Chrome or IE. It wouldn't be a big deal, but my concern is that there may be visitors to the site that experience this and possibly leave. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Also, because I'm developing I'm constantly clearing my cache and temp files, etc. I'm noticing this hang issue at least 1 time daily. I've posted this issue on the google forums, but they are utterly useless. I'm pretty sure that google is run by a super computer with no actual humans on staff because I've yet to get anything but retarded responses from google groupies/moderators and no one else that has any sort of beneficial input. My bad if you're a google groupie... no offense.

'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

Latest version of Firefox is having problems loading sites, it tries to load to Google Analytics. No error messages, just a page that won't load. How do I stop this?

Latest version of Firefox is having problems loading some sites, it tries to load and then gets taken over trying to load Google Analytics. No error messages, just a page that won't load. How do I get rid of this, it is a "pain in the neck"
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

I just spent 3 days with this issue as well. I finally fixed it by reluctantly adding yet another add-on called ADBLOCK
I was able to selectively block google-analytics. Now pages that weren't loading before are now loading.
eg vimeo.com starbucks.com & other random sites.
This was a tough one to fix because there is NO ERROR MESSAGE..page just shows it's loading...forever..& the bottom of my browser says 'waiting for google analytics'. I finally figured out google analytics is the culprit. Ironically, some help pages in trying to find a fix wouldn't load for me due to google analytics arghhh!
Im on a macbookpro & Safari worked fine for these same sites. It was just Firefox. I nearly switched back to Safari because of this stupid issue.
I'm wondering if this was caused by recent firefox 'updates'...

Google Analytics account pages don't fully load.

FF 14+ won't fully load Google analytics account home. This just started today. Chrome and Opera display my Google account fine. No, new plugins or software or any other changes has been made to FF. Ran avast!, iObit and have no problems with any other software on this machine. Cache has been cleared, cookies trashed... nothing fixes this problem.

By the way, were you thinking of completely removing Firefox and then reinstalling it, or ???
To make a fairly clean break, you could try the new Reset feature. This duplicates certain key data from your active settings folder into a new one, bypassing some add-ons and custom settings. Your plugins will still be active, but could be disabled manually if you like.
More information in this article: [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]].
If the new settings folder has the same problem, you can switch back if you like using Firefox's Profile Manager. (This article describes how to start Firefox in the profile manager. I do not recommend removing anything until you are 110% certain that you will never need any of that profile's data in the future. [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]])
Less rebuilding work if it works.

Google Analytics won't load

Hi,
Is it me or is the heavy Safari that is unable to load Google Analytics page?
The browser is getting heavier every time it is updated... Very sad, will I have to go back to Firefox 2.0 like I did on my PC so much Safari became UNUSABLE!

HI,
Users are having problems accessing Google Analytics. First try Google DNS, help here with that.
http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/
If that doesn't work for you, you can revert to a previous version of Safari if you like. Instructions here...

Data tracking with Google Analytics

Hi
Can I use Google Analytics with iweb?

Yes. You can add it to each page using iWeb SEO which requires it to be reapplied each time you edit a page.
You can also add it an HTML snippet which is a one time application. However, the snippet requires a bit more effort up front. Wyodor posted detailed instructions on how: IWEB : ADDING GOOGLE ANALYTICS WITHOUT EDITING THE WEBPAGE.
Have you looked at the information that you can get about visitors by using a counter from StatCounter.com. It's quite comprehensive and much easier to add to each page.

Old Toad's Tutorial #13 - Adding a StatCounter as an HTML Snippet describes how to add the counter.
I've used both and find the info from StatCounter more complete regarding visitors.

Google Analytics & Personal Domain Set Up

Hello,
I want to set up Google Analytics for iWeb. I have a personal domain set up through .mac.
My question is when I log into Google Analytics to sign up it ask for a URL. Which one do I give? My personal one?
Thanks,
Luke

If your site is hosted on .Mac then you will find that your personal domain is just rerouted to your .Mac
As nothing will be held on your personal domain there will be nothing for google to search for. You will have to route it to http://web.mac.com/yourusernamehere/ address.
IE; For my website: http://www.jamiejonesphoto.com
I would need to give the URL as: http://web.mac.com/jamie_jones/
But doe the Default Address you will need to give it the full address of what ever your front/home/opening page is. For me that would be: http://web.mac.com/jamie_jones/Site/Home.html
I hope that helps.
Jamie
