Topic: Google Analytics

Updated



Ok... So, although I have been using this plugin in some form for a while I have made some major changes over the last few days and there may be a bug or 2 that I have not ironed out. I promised it today though so here it is please treat as Beta.
https://github.com/mightyhaggis/monstra-analytics

I've not had time to write a site update...

You will need:

  • Analytics operational on your site for stats

  • A google account that has permission to access the stats

  • Your account to be setup as a google developer

  • In your developer account the analytics api activated

  • OAuth credentials setup

  • The View ID from analytics. Located under the Admin tab > Account / property / View > View settings. prefix the number with ga:

Settings in the plugin provides details along with the oauth callback path (Redirect URIs) that you need to set in OAuth credentials.

Note that the plugin can't be run locally unless you have SSL setup as google oauth needs a secure link and make sure that any adblockers are turned off / whitelist you site as they stop the google apis loading

Let me know what you think smile

Re: Google Analytics

@wormsunited

Yes working in Monstra 3.0.1 I'm finishing off and tidying up the code, time is my issue at the moment.
Its taken a fair amount of effort and iterations to get to this point (have a few tweaks planned for later), not to mention figuring out Monstra, so I appreciate you comments smile

Setup:
In order to use the plugin an Admin with a google account that has access rights to the sites analytics needs to enable the analytics API in their developer's account and setup OAuth credentials. Essentially they then grant Monstra Dashboard access rights to the stats.
The output is cached to keep things fast as there are lots of API calls, this is not real-time stats anyway.

Once installed the plugin auto calls itself via the admin_pre_template function and outputs its data under the quick links on the dashboard frontpage via admin_post_template function so the template needs to be unmodified from Monstra standard or at least have the admin_post_template output call.

I've coded the settings modal with the intent of implementing similar in the Plugin settings feature i've mentioned before.
