Re: [IUG] Google Analytics - Placement of script, warnings or drawbacks?

[Steve Sowder <sowder at andrews dot edu>]

I inserted the Google Analytics code directly into our patroninfo file 
two or three months ago and have not had a problem.

I also attended the IUG session you mentioned. Last Friday I added the 
code to our botlogo file and reviewed the reports on Monday.
Other than a LOT of pages being listed there has not been a problem. 
Each search is shown has a separate page.
ie the full url (with all of the search codes present) shows as a 
separate page in Google Analytics.

Now I need to figure out the "filtering" mentioned in that IUG session.

I put the script in the bottom logo as instructed in the presentation.  The instructions for Google Analytics call for the script to appear before </body> and the botlogo token appears right before the </body>.  However by reading the IUG archives, I found out that at least one person put the script in the toplogo and one put it someplace else I think.  I viewed the source and it didn't seem like it was in the top or the bot logos.  Is there a good reason for the script not to be in the botlogo? -
