Hi,

How to add Google analytics tracking codes in my development??
Pls help me on this...

Look at GoogleAnalyticsProcessor.java to see the logic for generating the javascript.

There is an example of using this already: https://github.com/BroadleafCommerce/De ... /head.html



You will also need to define the googleAnalytics.webPropertyId in your properties file (you may wish to define different values for dev, qa and production; see common-shared.properties for more info).

Hi, I have been trying to find an answer to this question, but I can't seem to get this working as describe. I've followed the demo site usage, i.e.



And I've got a webPropertyId set, however the processor seems to fail to set an ${analytics} that's accessible in scope when the page is generated. I've debugged the processor and it does actually seem to set this variable, but the finished output simply has an empty script block.



I can test for ${analytics} in the page and can confirm that thymeleaf believes it's null. I'm going to keep digging into thymeleaf to see if I can get to the bottom of it but thought I'd pose the question in case anyone has had a similar issue.

I'm on 3.1.2. Note it didn't work in 3.1.1 either.

Surfratwait, you should consider instead using <blc:google_universal_analytics /> which is new as of 3.1.3-GA (current Broadleaf release is 3.1.5-GA). Google has deprecated the older API that <blc:googleAnalytics> was using in favor of Universal Analytics and as of 3.1.3-GA we have deprecated the older-style processor.

By the way, with the google universal analytics processor you don't need the extra <script> tag. Instead, you can just put in the processor invocation and it will transform to a valid <script> tag with the GA tracking code:

Thanks for the tip @phillipuniverse. I have upgraded to the latest GA release, and am now using the google universal analytics processor successfully in dev.
