Hello,
I have a problem with the e-commerce tracking, the transaction are not record in google analytics.
I have follow the guide and the folowing point from another topics on the forum :
– I do have an Analytics account working properly.
– I do have installed Yoast’s Google Analytics For WordPress plugin.
– I do have E-Commerce Tracking enabled in my Analytics account.
– I have checked the “Enable Google Analytics Tracking” checkbox in the setting menu of the WP eStore plugin.
– I do have “Auto Return” turned ON in my Paypal profile.
– I give Google Analytics plenty of time, because of the delay, to display the sales. Sales that happened yesterday still don’t show in my Google Analytics account (0 sales yesterday, 0 sales today according to Google Analytics).
Here is the code I get in the source code of the confirmation page :
<script type=”text/javascript”>//<![CDATA[
// Google Analytics for WordPress by Yoast v4.06 | http://yoast.com/wordpress/google-analytics/
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push();
_gaq.push(,‘_addTrans’,’7P476046160843905′,’Style For Modern Men’,’1.00′,’0.00′,”,”,”,”,‘_addItem’,’7P476046160843905′,’1′,’Ebook look’,”,’1.00′,’1′,‘_trackTrans’);
(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘http://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();
// End of Google Analytics for WordPress by Yoast v4.0
//]]></script>
Thank you for your help !

I know that there were a few bugs in analytics plugin when Yoast upgraded to the v4 (he made some major changes in v4). Yoast released a few patches to address those issues. Can you upgrade the Google analytics plugin to v4.0.9 (this is the current version now) and give it a go?
January 19, 2011 at 9:47 am #28143nuxlyMemberHi,
Thank you for your answer.
I had already the 4.0.9 to make the test.
The visitor are recorded but still not the transaction.
Is there the possibility to use another analytics plugin ?
January 20, 2011 at 3:16 am #28144amin007ParticipantYeah it should be possible to use a different analytics plugin. eStore just adds the bit of code related to the transaction:
‘_addTrans’,’7P476046160843905′,’Style For Modern Men’,’1.00′,’0.00′,”,”,”,”,‘_addItem’,’7P476046160843905′,’1′,’Ebook look’,”,’1.00′,’1′,‘_trackTrans’
Let me know which plugin you want to use and I will see what options they have to add the transaction tracking.
February 12, 2011 at 1:40 pm #28145jessie.m.davisMemberI’m having the same issue that nuxly is having and I’ve followed all of the instructions, but my ecommerce is still not coming through on my Google Analytics. In addition, I don’t see the eStore transaction code in the source code of the thank you page when a sale has been made, so that may be my issue. Could you tell me what I might be doing wrong?
February 13, 2011 at 3:26 am #28146amin007ParticipantAre the download links getting shown on the thank you page after a payment?

February 13, 2011 at 11:04 pm #28147jessie.m.davisMemberI’m actually not selling downloads, I’m using it in conjunction with eMember. Does that make a difference?
February 14, 2011 at 4:53 am #28148amin007ParticipantDoesn’t look like you have done step 3 from this instruction:
http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/google-analytics-e-commerce-tracking-for-wp-estore-850
Even if you don’t sell downloadable you need to do step 3 so the thank you page can contain the transaction information. This transaction details is then sent to the Google Analytics plugin.
February 18, 2011 at 9:30 pm #28149jessie.m.davisMemberThanks for your response. So I made the changes you suggested. I turned on the PDT, put in the identity token and pasted the shortcode into the thank you page.
