In reply to: [Track Everything] Plugin stopped workingAlright. I’ve fixed the error. (Some code in the previous update wasn’t properly sent to WordPress).
If you update the plugin, everything should work again. I’m so sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks once again for letting me know.

In reply to: [Track Everything] Links on certain pagesIf you only want to track on one page, the simplest way to do this would be to use the Paige’s body classes. In well built themes, each WordPress page has a selection of body classes. One of which is something like page-id-123. Find what your contact page’s id is, and then you may use descendant selectors to only select the element on the contact page. Your final sector will be something along the lines of:
.page-id-456 a.yarpp-thumbnail
If however, I’m misinterpreting your question and each page does have the class of page-contact or page-sitemap then use that as the descendant selector, as it is easier to undertand:
.page-contact a.yarpp-thumbnail

In reply to: [Track Everything] Not workingI looked at the website and noticed Track Everything wasn’t activated. Can you please confirm it is?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Track Everything] Not workingThe plugin was one of the first to work with Universal Analytics and Ethoseo was the first to produce a universal analytics solution. (However you’ll need to click the checkbox enabling Analytics.js)
I’m out at the moment but I’ll check the website out in the morning.
Thanks again.

In reply to: [Track Everything] Not workingI’m sorry I hear the plugin didn’t work. Not were you able to contact the company who created it. What form and phone number did you use?
This plugin is very much still maintained. What version of wordpress are you running? If you can share, what’s the URL for the site you are using this on?

In reply to: [Track Everything] Track elements that have no special ID or classThank you! That’s great to hear.
If you can’t change the togglers then I recommend adding that snippet to the page. If you don’t want to edit your theme you can use a plugin to insert the Javascript.
Good luck with the Flash!

In reply to: [Track Everything] Track elements that have no special ID or classYou can track the toggles. To track any click on a toggle you could use the selector
.toggler
. If you wanted to track only closed toggles you could use.toggler:not(.active)
and for only open ones.toggler.active
. Unfortunately, in all scenarios the labels are not going to be extremely helpful. Track Everything does its best to identify a label, but in this case the label would be#
for every one, which I can’t imagine being particularly helpful.To remedy this you must give names or titles to everything with the class
toggler
. I’m not sure how you’re creating the toggler, but if the plugin allows naming a title for each one, it should be relatively simple. Otherwise, you can add this javascript snippet to your page and it will make sure to name the togglers something more understandable:jQuery(function ($) { $(".toggler a").each(function () { $(this).parent().attr("title", $(this).text()); }); });
As for Flash, it’s tricky. Unfortunately, you cannot track events that occur in Flash players. However, the plugin you’re using to do play the audio might have a “Javascript API” that would allow you to push events to Google Analytics, unfortunately though that is outside of the scope of Track Everything.
Please let me know if all this makes sense.

In reply to: [Track Everything] Tracking the more tagThe site appears to be set up correctly and the console event is what’s expected. Are you finding the events are not showing up in Google Analytics?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Track Everything] How do I see if it is correctly set up?The best way is to ensure your code is working is to turn on Debug Mode in the main settings panel. Doing so will add CSS classes to the links being tracked. You can observe these with Selector Gadget, Firebug (in Firefox), or Web Inspector (in Chrome & Safari). Additionally, if you are using Chrome/Safari/Firebug/IE Inspector, a console event will be recorded each time a tracked event occurs.
