I added spiderable package to my app.
When I load my pages with ?_escaped_fragment_= it renders my page correctly, like it is a static one. But when I try to render it with 'Fetch as Google bot' using Webmaster tools and ask for a version without this query parameter, Google shows a blank page with some basic meteor scripts included. Not sure if it's the expected behavior or an issue with my setup.
That is expected behavior.
Use tools such as Screaming Frog Seo Spider to check if your Ajax Crawling Protocol is ok.

We are using in-premise version of confluence but still do not have insights to the confluence code but would like to track page views, actions, users etc using Matomo (https://matomo.org/) or Google Analytics.
To enable any kind of tracking, we atleast need to paste a few lines of JS code to index.html.
But in case of confluence, since we do not have access to the code, how we can make this work.
Can anyone please help here.

I'm having trouble using Google's API to update amp pages from a site I'm working on. The site is a Wordpress based site using WP Amp to generate amp pages, it appends /amp to any enabled pages.
I've read the documentation here and it seems like it should be a simple GET request using this structure:
https://cdn.ampproject.org/update-ping/c/s/www.example.com/example-category/example-page/amp
..which gives me a 204 No Content reply (to be expected Google's docs say). However, when retesting via my phone (with cache cleared etc) it is showing the same old amp page not the updated one.
Surely I'm missing something obvious, look forward to finding out what it is.
Figured this out finally after leaving it for a while and coming back to it.
The URL format for updating Google's cache is:
https://www-example-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.example.com/example-category/example-page/amp
Google states that to update you need to have the /update-ping/ prefixing the /c/s switches but that never worked for me. After much trial and effort using the above format works for me every time.
If you run it in your browser expect to see the old version on first page load but if you refresh after that the updated amp page should show.
When trying to look at In-Page Analytic in firefox I get this message:
"Problem loading In-Page Analytics
We've identified problems in your setup. These may cause problems loading In-Page Analytics.
Your site doesn't load ga.js from Google. If you host the Google tracking code on your own servers, it isn't updated automatically and can miss important changes.
We didn't find a tracking snippet on your site. In-Page Analytics cannot load. Please make sure you have tracking installed correctly. If your snippet is included in a separate JavaScript file, you'll have to manually check it is being loaded correctly."
When trying to view In-Page Analytic in Chrome I get:
"Access denied. Please try relaunching In-Page Analytics from the report.[Error: 20006]"
I don't understand why this is not working because when I look at other reports in Google Analytic like page views everything seems to be working fine...
Any help would be much appreciated.

Recent web browser updates block http scripts from loading in a https session by default. In the URL bar click the shield icon and Load unsafe script to show in page analytics.
Credit
I had the same problem in Chrome and this worked for me like a charm:
After you try loading the report, look at the Chrome browser’s Address
bar. At the right side of the bar, a shield icon is displayed. Click
on the shield icon. Then you’re notified that the site contains an
unsafe script, and you’re given the option to run the script. Once
you grant permission to run the script, the report appears as it’s
supposed to
Clear your browsing data and try again. (Ctrl - Shift - Delete)
You should also verify your View settings are correct - please have a look at this GA troubleshooting document:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2559761?hl=en
I had the same issue as user1697748 & Alex Lockwood. I change the property settings to
Start In-Page Analytics in "Full View Mode" instead of embedded mode.
This you can find in Admin --> Property Settings.
Now I the In page analytics opens in new window but get this error.
Access denied. Please try relaunching In-Page Analytics from the report.[Error: 20006]
I am getting the other data from analytic but having issues with in page analytics.
So I did following to fix it.
Make sure the url is same in all your properties. I had at one place http://www.studyn.us and at all other places it was http://studyn.us. Google also recommends to keep it same
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/2559761?hl=en
Delete all cookies. Close windows and re open it.
Worked for me.
It has been more than 2 years since In-Page Analytics report started to have problems with loading the data in Google Analytics interface. There are a few things you can try:
You can disable the security in your browser (not recommended).
You can download a plugin for Chrome to view some of the Google Analytics data directly in your browser (you wouldn't be able to apply any segments or filter the data by using the plugin).
You can recreate the report using Google Analytics data (the best solution) in Excel or Tableau. It isn't very hard to do, and once you are done, the problem is gone forever.
Here is a detailed step-by-step description of how to recreate In-Page Analytics report.
Example
Google anaytics inpage analytics feature has been disabled and will be removed soon. To overcome the loading errors a new page analytics chrome extension has been developed which is more easier to use and analyze page.
Follow the step by step guide to using inpage analytics chrome extension.
seems to be a widespread problem with this whole inpage analytics thing.
I had/ have several problems my self and there is not only one step towards the solution because there is more than just one problem. So I will write here some of the steps and solutions I made so far which worked:
1. Problem: Access denied. Please try relaunching In-Page Analytics from the report.[Error: 20006] = Solution = If updated to universal analytics you get a code snippet, which is not complete: you get this from analytics
ga('create', 'UA-1200274-1', 'sgo.ch');
ga('send', 'pageview');
but you have to put in an extra line between those two lines
ga('require', 'linkid', 'linkid.js');, plus you have to go under admin ->Property settings-> and switch on Use enhanced link attribution, DONT use full side mode!
Now when you try inpage analytics again it depends on the browser you are using: In IE, it appears an allert, you have to click on "view whole content" (sorry I have it in german, it might be in english saying something else, like loading page, or show whole page or so..), In google Chrome you have to look in the url bar, there is kind of a shield and you have to click on it and say load unsecure script.
Well that is the way how to solve the two error messages with Access denied. Please try relaunching In-Page Analytics from the report.[Error: 20006] and "Problem loading In-Page Analytics We've identified problems in your setup. These may cause problems loading In-Page Analytics..."
Now at least you can anaylse the main page (eg www.example.com), but in my case when i click further, then it doesnt stop loading for ever or it just appears that error again Access denied. Please try relaunching In-Page Analytics from the report.[Error: 20006],
I was really analyzing and testing and breaking my head, until I found out, that when I copy the Url, at the end of the url, my webpages adress repeats again. like this https://www.google.com/analytics/web/?hl=de&pli=1....%2Fwww.example.com/. so i just deleted the last part from the www... out of the Url and pressed enter and then all the datas appeared... Its a little annoying because you have to delete the www out of ech url you are anaylzing manually, but at least you can use the inpage analytics. Sorry for my very bad English skills, but I hope at least some one understood it:)
Please dont stop posting more solutions and ideas:)

I have a e-commerce site using Umbraco.
The google analytics code works fine on most of the pages but for some reason doesn't work on the 'secure pages' (pages the user has to log in to see).
I've tried moving the code to various places in the HTML with no joy.
Any ideas?
The best way to resolve this is try to track for yourself, if the __utm.gif is called on the page that should be the Goal URL. You can use the Net tab in Firebug, Live HTTP Headers or Fiddler (if you use other browser than Firefox) to track all request on the page.

FROM GOOGLE
I have written a page and need to test it locally.
How can I see the result of my development site served from my local machine using Google's "Fetch As Google" feature in Webmaster Tools?
(disclaimer: more of a comment than an answer)
This is an excellent question and there are amazingly little sources on the web for a solution.
Fetch Google Bot - http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=158587
The Fetch as Googlebot tool lets you
see a page as Googlebot sees it. This
is particularly useful if you're
troubleshooting a page's poor
performance in search results. For
example, if you use rich media files
to display content, the page returned
by the tool may not contain this
content if Google can't crawl it
effectively. You can choose to fetch a
page as Google's regular web crawler
sees it or, if you publish mobile
content, as our mobile crawlers do.
I followed the link above and tried out User Agent Switcher but it doesn't accomplish what the asker is looking for. See this thread: chrispederick.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=788
You can change the user agent settings
to be the same as GoogleBot, for
example, but I'm not sure if sites
also change their appearance based on
the headers the search bot sends.
Changing the headers is beyond the
scope of the extension, however.
And chrispederick.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=259
Q
For example if i put googleBot i'd
like it to customize that it would be
emulate Google's spider.
A
The User Agent Switcher has always
been designed to be a simple,
light-weight solution so I'm not
planning on adding anything like this.
In short I don't think there is a solution. This would be a great opportunity for a google app
Do you mean you want to see how your site will react to the google web crawler?
For this you could use Firefox with the User Agent Switcher addon.
In order to test your localhost website with the official Google tools, you can use Ngrok as i described in this post : https://www.aymen-loukil.com/en/blog-en/how-to-test-localhost-website-with-google-seo-tools/
Fetch as Google is not possible to use directly with non verified domain in Google Search Console (Webmaster tools). A trick to view it, is to iframe your Ngrok URL in a another verified domain.
- you should have a website verified in Search console
- Make an iframe that loads your Ngrok URL of your localhost webpage
Ngrok + Fetch as google combination is great, but you will need to go through the verification process each time you launch ngrok on the google tools side.
In my case I just needed to check if server side render was properly done, just went to google Chrome navigator settings and disabled javascript:
Settings >> Advanced >> Content Settings >> Disable >> Javascript Allowed (off)
It allowed me to check that the page was being 100% rendered in the server side(nextjs server side rendering) and no JavaScript render was being run on the client side.
