Google Analytics goal / funnel conversion

Hello,

I have been trying to setup a goal with funnel from the register page to the activation link.

So far I have not been successful.

I am finding it a bit frustrating because It seems like there is quite a delay before you know if it is working or not.

Anyone know how to test this or if you set one up successfully could you screen shot it..

It is tracking the funnels now with the updated goals.

I am attaching a screen shot.

The goal is they goto the register page.. Then to the activate page.

Below where some changes to the plugin

I put the code in the header of the page instead of the footer via anlytics instructions

<br />

//add_action('wp_footer', 'google_analytics_output');<br />

add_action('wp_head', 'google_analytics_output',100,1);<br />

right before the </head>

I updated the code to what google analytics had for there instructions for a multi domain setup.

<br />

<?php<br />

if ( !empty( $google_analytics_site_tracking_code ) ) {<br />

?><br />

var _gaq = _gaq || [];<br />

_gaq.push(['_setAccount', '<?php echo $google_analytics_site_tracking_code; ?>']);<br />

_gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'none']);<br />

_gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);<br />

_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);</p>

<p>                <?php<br />

}<br />

if ( !empty( $google_analytics_blog_tracking_code ) ) {<br />

?><br />

var _gaq = _gaq || [];<br />

_gaq.push(['_setAccount', '<?php echo $google_analytics_blog_tracking_code; ?>']);<br />

_gaq.push(['_setDomainName', 'none']);<br />

_gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker', true]);<br />

_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);</p>

<p>                <?php<br />

}<br />

?></p>

<p>            (function() {<br />

var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;<br />

ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';<br />

var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);<br />

})();<br />

</script><br />

<?php<br />

I don't know if any of that fixed it..

Hi jozwikjp,

We are observing some issues with the latest version of our GA plugin. I am currentling testing things and will get back to you. This 24h delay in stats is killing me. Very difficult to test minor code changes.
