A reminder, things you also need when installing Google Analytics plugin for EPiServer and using ASP.Net MVC

There are probably some documentation regarding this on EPiServer World but I had some trouble finding the information needed. Installation of the Add-On for Google analytics is really easy but to make everything work we also need to put some code in your views, not only install the add-on

There are two ways of make Google Analytics track your visitors:

Update:

  • Use RequiredClientResources (Recommended)
   1:  @Html.RequiredClientResources(RenderingTags.Header)
   2:   
   3:  @Html.RequiredClientResources(RenderingTags.Footer) 
  • Or use AnalyticsTrackingScript helper if you are not using above already in your _Layout.cshtml
   1:  @Html.AnalyticsTrackingScript(Model.CurrentPage)

 

And that’s it.

Happy tracking
