Where to put Google Analytics code in Vanilla 2

Raize

Anyone know a good place to put my analytics code?

P.S. The search function on this forum really needs some work, it would help avoid a lot of dupe questions

Hi Raize,

I put the GA-code in the head of the file:
~/themes/yourTheme/views/default.master.php

If you look there, you won't find the file, so first you have to copy it from here:
~/applications/dashboard/views/default.master.php

Hope this helps you and others.

For those who want a simpler way to accomplish the same thing, I've released an add-on that only requires that you put your tracking id in default.php:

Hope it helps!

It helped and solved my problem. I'm using it at http://www.centraldetaxis.pt/forum/ and works like a charm!!

I know this is a dumb remark but I'm a newbie to VanillaForums and I took a few minutes to understand what you said... "you put your tracking id in default.php"....

It's on /plugins/analytics/default.php ... Hope it help someone... Also had to clean /cache some files to start working...

Thanks Lykaon!!
