Directives like _setDomainName or _setAllowLinker should be placed before any _trackXxx directive in order to let GA being properly configured (cookie, etc.) before pushing data to google servers.

_gaq.push(['_setAccount','UA-X-Y']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
_gaq.push(['_setDomainName','none']);
_gaq.push(['_setAllowLinker',true]);

Repro:

GA::Event.new('send', 'evt', "foo'sbar")

Expected:

ga('send','evt','foo\'sbar')

Actual:

ga('send','evt','foo'sbar')

This causes the page to stop executing JS

Hey thanks so much for this nice little Gem! I was wondering if you could help me with this, I want to see the demographics tab on GA but its directs me to the following link:

https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2444872?hl=en&utm_id=ad

Says I need to edit the script to this:

Any way you can help direct me how to edit that?

Thanks for your help!

Any chance of releasing the latest version of google-analytics-rails to RubyGems? In particular it'd be great to see the enhanced link attribute #14 in the released gem.

First noticed this when deploying my app to heroku, but looks like google-analytics-rails breaks the production environment in a relatively vanilla Rails 3.2.3 app.

I have followed the instructions and set the GA.tracker in environment files development.rb and production.rb. Somehow the latter breaks. Any idea what's going on?

☁  xxx [master] ⚡ rails console

Are there any plans to support Google Analytics Cross-Domain Tracking?

There are some cases (especially in single page apps) where it is not desirable to automatically send a pageview event at library initialization. For those cases, we need a way to suppress this event in analytics_init.

Do you have any plans to support Turbolinks? like described here:

http://reed.github.io/turbolinks-compatibility/google_analytics.html

It looks like gtag.js was released recently.
So, Do you have plans for supporting gatg.js format ?

How/where would we add the ga('set', 'anonymizeIp', true); from https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/field-reference#anonymizeIp to comply with GDPR?

Support for track userId.

ga('set', 'userId', 'USER_ID'); // Defina o ID de usuário usando o user_id conectado.

Should the new analytics.js from Google be supported? (without using GA.script_source): https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/advanced

Advanced Configuration - Web Tracking (analytics.js)

This document provides an overview of the analytics.js collection library.

The analytics.js snippet is part of Universal Analytics, which is currently in public beta. New users should use analytics.js. Existing ga.js users should create a new web property for analytics.js and dual tag their site. It is perfectly safe to include both ga.js and analytics.js snippets on the same page.

Tracking events from controller

class MyController < ApplicationController
  def index
    GA.track_event("MyEvent", "tag")
  end
end

I found http://rubydoc.info/github/bgarret/google-analytics-rails/GoogleAnalytics/Rails/ViewHelpers#analytics_init-instance_method but to be honest I find it quite cryptic ;-)

For example:

:local (Boolean) — default: false — Sets the local development mode. See http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google%20Analytics/thread?tid=741739888e14c07a&hl=en

"Sets the local development mode" doesn't really mean anything, to me at least. And the thread referred to is quite long and equally confusing. Maybe I'm just stupid or lazy, but it would really be nice if there were a couple of sentences here explaining how this works. Is this really significantly different from the other suggested usage?

<%= analytics_init if Rails.env.production? %>

Thanks ...

Allows one to see separate information for multiple links on a page that all have the same destination.

https://support.google.com/analytics/bin/answer.py?hl=en&utm_id=ad&answer=2558867

Set using the same interface as the other init settings: analytics_init :enhanced_link_attribution => true

I have a Rails 5 application which serves only as an API provider and executes some background jobs.
I want to know if Google Analytics offers support for these kind of applications where there is no file like:

app/views/layout/application.html.erb

Where am I supposed to put this line of code in that case:

<%= analytics_init if GoogleAnalytics.valid_tracker? %>

Hi,

I've seen in your code that you support siteSpeedSampleRate. How do I configure it?

Cheers and thx!

The analytics_init view helper is missing an option to add a _setDomainName event before the first page view tracking.
Could you add a domain option for this?

Thanks.

What's the best way to use the User Id feature from analytics with this gem?

https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/user-id

/Users/jpbadger/.rvm/gems/ree-1.8.7-2012.02@rvcportal23/gems/activesupport-2.3.14/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:466:in `load_missing_constant': uninitialized constant Rails::Railtie (NameError)

Not too big of a deal, but it may be helpful to note in the README that the gem isn't compatible with Rails 2. Cheers.

Does this gem support https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/display-features?

Do you have any plans to support slim as template engine?
