Using Custom variables to output all widgets on a per variable basis

Hi,

We have a marketplace style site and wish to show sellers complete stats on their pages including things like referrers and keywords etc…

Is this possible using custom variables? I have had a play with them and the widgitised reporting seems fairly limited (though I may have missed somethign of course).

eg /admin/stats/index.php?module=Widgetize&action=iframe&moduleToWidgetize=Referers&actionToWidgetize=getKeywords&idSite=2&period=day&date=yesterday&disableLink=1&widget=1&segment=customVariableName1==Member;customVariableValue2==Memberid_1325

the above displays no data.

I guess another wat to do it is to map a member to a new “site”, but this seems liek overkill.

Am I completely off track?

Would labels be the right thing to use here?

if so, how and where to you add a label into the tracking code?

Custom variables should work in this case. Maybe in the segment you meant customVariableValue1 instead of customVariableValue2 ?

Ahha. I have this one working now, but I still can’t get the entire dashbaord to work. If the code below is working ofr me, what should it be please to geenrate the entire filtered dashboard?

Many thanks Matt.

Add the &segment=XX to the end of the dashboard URL and it will filter all widgets with this segment
