Hints and Tips¶

Tracking Logged In Users¶

You may add logged in user name using _setCustomVar call just before _trackPageview. Following Google Analytics code examples store user name in visitor-level slot #1 named 'Login'. They were tested on Redmine 0.9.3.

• traditional code:

  ...
  pageTracker._setCustomVar(1, 'Login', document.getElementById('loggedas') != null
    ? document.getElementById('loggedas').childNodes[1].textContent : '(anonymous)', 1);
  pageTracker._trackPageview();
  ...
  

• asynchronous code:

  ...
  _gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'Login', document.getElementById('loggedas') != null
    ? document.getElementById('loggedas').childNodes[1].textContent : '(anonymous)', 1]);
  _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
  ...
  

Results will be available in "Visitors" -> "Custom Variables" -> "Login" report.

Tracking Redmine Search Queries¶

Follow appropriate Google Analytics Guide and use "q" (without quotes) as "Query Parameter". Results will be available in "Content" -> "Site Search" reports.
