Including Google Analytics

For your convenience, we have a handy HTML helper available for outputting the Google Analytics script.

@Html.IncludeGoogleAnalytics()

Set your API key in the properties of the Root Event Tracking content node

Including the Tracking Script

Next, just add this bit of razor code anywhere AFTER you include GA in your master template

@Html.IncludeGaEventTracking()

How to Use

After installing the package you will see that we have added a whole bunch of events for you

Feel free to delete these if you wish, they are just there to help you get going.

Standard Events

These events are aimed at making the process easier for simple events that don't require a huge amount of configuration

Using stardard events makes things quicker and easier but give you less control over the label and less actions to choose from

90 % of the time we only expect you to need standard events

Advanced Events

These events are for when you need more control

The label field lets you specify a template string to use. For example, "My label string {PAGE_URL}"
