GA allows 5 custom variable slots. Here's how we want to set them up (all page-scope except #2)

1

"Tool" in Allura. Change to "Page Type". On Allura, add "-subpage" (see examples below) and start populating for Sfpy pages. Examples:

  • "tracker-search" -- Tracker page to display a list of tickets matching a specific search request
  • "download" - DLPV
  • "project_summary" -- Project Summary Page
  • "home_page" -- Index page of the site
  • "project_registration" -- Register a new project
  • "wiki-page" -- wiki tool the standard view a page view
  • "wiki-edit" -- wiki tool edit a wiki i page
  • "wiki-recent-changes" -- wiki tool view changes that have happened recently.

2

User id, already implemented

3

"Project": shortname. In the case of a non-p neighborhood, use "foobar.adobe" for example

4

"Topic": If a project page, a comma-separated list of the project's Topic-trove shortnames

5

Reserved for A/B test group

Consistency

See http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/tracking/gaTrackingCustomVariables.html and make sure we put the custom var in the right spot in the GA calls, for all codebases.

    _gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'Page Type', 'Wiki', 3])
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageLoadTime']);

_gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 2, 'userid', '1000', 1]);
