New extension: Google Analytics Panel

sorry to bother but couldn’t get it to accept my username (that is my google analytics email?)

Can’t wait to see it running though.

thanks a lot for the contribution!

Hey all - I just pushed version Analytics Panel version 1.1 to GitHub, which adds:

• MSM support

• member group permissions (decide which groups can display the Analytics Panel)

• better password security (passwords are now base64-encoded, and never displayed to the user on the settings screen)

• “yesterday” and “last month” stats are cached daily for quicker home screen load times

Thanks for all the kind words, I’m happy to see people excited about it. (Sucker for praise.)

MSM support? No way! 🐛

Update!

Ok, I have installed the extension in a 7 site MSM installation and it is working beautifully. All sites have separated credentials and stats and everything is working without even a hick-up.

Very nice work!

I sorted the stats view to the top right hand pane of the control panel home page and I’m realizing how much I like having a quick overview of what is happening on the site today. It’s even more helpful than I expected and my expectations weren’t low.

Thank you very much for a great extension! Now… I need to go review and ‘5 star it’ at devot-ee.

Thanks for the glowing praise Todd. 😊 Happy to contribute.

After I updated to 1.1 and selected the site from the choices, I get these errors in the extension’s settings page. Seems to be working otherwise:

Warning: Division by zero in /home/site/public_html/site_url.com/sys/extensions/ext.analytics_panel.php on line 618 Warning: Division by zero in /home/site/public_html/site_url.com/sys/extensions/ext.analytics_panel.php on line 623 Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/site/public_html/site_url.com/sys/extensions/ext.analytics_panel.php:618) in /home/site/public_html/site_url.com/sys/core/core.functions.php on line 296

Kyle - just pushed an update to fix this. You either had a really great month (no bounces!) or a really bad one (no visits!). 😊

It’s a new site and I just set up Analytics right before install. The update took care of my sad, sad scenario. Thanks for another great add-on!

Just tried this on another website on a completely different web server (running php 5.1.6) and it worked great, first time.

Glad it worked out on another server. I wonder if maybe the first server was lacking cURL and had fopen disabled? One of the two are required to authorize.

Hi D-Rock - I have similar problem as sm9. Where/How should I deal with this problem : server was lacking cURL and had fopen disabled ?

Moving to different server is not an option for me.

Thanks a lot

Beebs - go to Admin -> Utilities -> PHP Info. On that page, search for ‘cURL support’ and ‘allow_url_fopen’. If both are disabled, you’ll need to contact your host and ask about enabling one (cURL is preferable).

Thanks for your reply.

I have checked and here are the info :

cURL support enabled allow_url_fopen Local Value : On Master Value :On

Thanks to Beebs’ graciously giving me access to his server, I sorted out this issue, which was blanking the control panel in cases where Analytics Panel was the only extension using the ‘show_full_control_panel_end’ hook. Version 1.1.2 is on GitHub now.

Thanks to D-Rock for the effort. Hopefully any user who has similar problem like me can refer to this.

Hi D-Rock,

Just to update you for the last minute development : now there’s error as follows :

MySQL ERROR: Error Number: 2006 Description: MySQL server has gone away Query: SELECT settings FROM exp_extensions WHERE class = ‘Analytics_panel’ LIMIT 1

What do you think?

Looks like your MySQL server timed out or went down (MySQL server has gone away). Did it resolve itself?
