Google Analytics code?

I've searched the forum and haven't been able to find an exact answer to this question.

I have GA on my site. I want to insert GA Conversion tracking.

I know I need to cut n paste the GA code into the Extra Text/HTML box. But what code do I cut n paste? Shouldn't the converting page have different code to identify it? Should I edit my site settings as an e-Commerce site in GA? Should I be creating a "Funnel" in GA?

A bit lost here. Any help is appreciated. I know DLG can do conversions, but I'm using a different Buy Now button.

Thanks!

Hi Bluesquares,

I haven't used GA myself, so I can't help you with how to use their system.

Keep in mind, though, that any code pasted into the Extra Text/HTML Code box will ONLY be displayed for that particular product.

So if the code is unique, then it'll only be displayed when someone buys that product you're currently editing.

I hope this helps!

cheers
Sam

Hi Kenth,

That's interesting, I didn't know they offered that!

You can create your own download links, if you wish.

Have a look at the current download links DLGuard is displaying for you.

It'll be something like:

http://www.example.com/dlg/downloadfile.php?r=1234&p=1

Copy this, and then replace the receipt number (r) with this:

http://www.example.com/dlg/downloadfile.php?r=%%customerreceipt%%&p=1

You can paste this link directly into your download page template.

THere's info here about editing your download page template:

That'll allow you to add the extra Google code!

cheers
Sam
