I use piwik to track my web page visits and it works fine. I just added this code to the javascript on my page:
var _paq = _paq || [];
_paq.push(['trackPageView']);
_paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
(function() {
var u=(("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https" : "http") + "mypiwiklink";
_paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
_paq.push(['setSiteId', 1]);
var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; g.type='text/javascript';
g.defer=true; g.async=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
})();
// end piwik track code
This code has no problem. It is standard. And I see the page visits on piwik dashboard, as expected. Now I would like to add a custom variable to the same web page, that tracks each call of specific function on my page. So inside the code of the function, which call I would like to track, I’ve added:
var selectTableRowHandler = function() {
// function code
//piwik code inside the function code:
var _paq = _paq || [];
_paq.push(['setCustomVariable',
1,
"Visitor",
"myfile",
"page"
]);
_paq.push(['trackPageView']);
_paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
(function() {
var u=(("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https" : "http") + "mypiwiklink";
_paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
_paq.push(['setSiteId', 1]);
var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; g.type='text/javascript';
g.defer=true; g.async=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
})();
// end of function code here
}
When I debug, I see that the code is executed without errors, but I can’t see any custom varibales added at the piwik dashboard. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!
