Adding analytics javascript (HotJar) to site.

by Guest October 12th 2017, 9:28 am

Hi peeps,

I'm looking to add some analytics to our forum and it needs to be done via the head tags of each page in Javascript.

I have tried to add this via: Admin > Modules > HTML & JAVASCRIPT > Javascript codes management > (placement) in all pages. The page still won't verify going this route.

I wasn't sure what to do with the title field so i just made it up. Here is the instructions: Copy and paste the code snippet into the <head> tag on every page where you wish to track visitors and collect feedback. I've adjusted some info in the code to keep it anonymous - but provided something as an example.

code is:

<script>
(function(h,o,t,j,a,r){
h.hj=h.hj||function(){(h.hj.q=h.hj.q||[]).push(arguments)};
h._hjSettings={hjid:653238,hjsv:6};
a=o.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
r=o.createElement('script');r.async=1;
r.src=t+h._hjSettings.hjid+j+h._hjSettings.hjsv;
a.appendChild(r);
})(window,document,'https://static.hotjar.com/c/hotjar-','.js?sv=');
</script>

Any help implementing this would be super. Thanks again!

As I have to put in the GA Tracking ID in it's not relevant for the Javascript - which I needed to put in the header tags of the sites pages. Unless I'm missing something?
