Is it possible to have a search form on every page of my WordPress site, in the header.php for instance, that contains a search form for Google Maps? When someone adds their postcode into the box they get redirected to the search results page which shows their results.
If so, does anyone know how this works or can anyone provide any code?
Many thanks

This is quite possible, and is described here in google's API. You can redirect the user using data gathered by your form, or you can actually even embed a map into your own webpage (which seems like a better user experience, and lets the user spend more time on your site).

My client asked me to allow user to search for images on the website using the search bar in Wordpress. It is a big client so really don't want to lose this job. Please help me already spent many days looking for that.
Basically he wants the images to popup when somebody input the keywords. Very simple example:
user digit "cat" on the search bar
cat images are shown in a sort of
tiled-gallery
I've been struggling for days to reach that,
thanks!!

I have a form that allows users to search my website. The site has different sections, each one corresponding to a custom post type (it's based on Wordpress), so I've added a filter where the user can check in which of the sections they want to search.
How can I detect which checkboxes have been ticked so that when the results page is loaded they are correctly filtered? Can I do it with $_POST or do I need a cookie?
I'm sure this is pretty simple but I have little experience with forms and posting values, so I need a little direction. Thank you for your help!
The correct option is use GET. This way, filter options will be on url, being able to share, refresh and bookmark.
Also, WordPress already provide some GET filters (taxonomies).
WordPress recommends you to register your GET variables for security.
I embed custom links into each resume I send out, so I can see who as clicked on the links. I then take the custom value (passed through a url parameter) and pass it into Google Analytics as a session level custom variable. What I want to do is create a report that will show me all the typical information I can normally see (pages visited, time, etc), but filtered down by custom variables. i.e. I want to see that people form company X have looked at these parts of my website. I've been reading through all the documentation and feel like a custom report is the right way to go, but I'm not really sure. Any suggestions, links, instructions would be appreciated.
Create a custom report. Play around with some configuration like the following:
I am integrating Google Analytics in my tumblr-Template. The Problem is, every time I visit the blog to see how it looks like, Google will count me as a visitor. I would like to avoid it.
So I need something Like this in my template:
{block:NotAdmin}
<#Google-Script>
{/block:NotAdmin}
I couldn't find anything useful on the tumblr-Site.
Any suggestions?
ps. I am visiting the blog from different IP´s, so Google-IP-Filter wont work.
Some possible ways to detect if a user is signed in: How to detect if a tumblr user is logged in?
Assuming you can get some form of the above code working, you can add a conditional to the _trackPageview call:
if (!logged_in)_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
This way, all the analytics code is still being loaded, but the pageviews are not being tracked when you're logged in.
Perhaps try Google's opt-out extension? A good thing to do would be to set up a new user within Google Chrome, and switch to this user whenever you want to view the blog.
I have a site that contains the file
redirect.php?id=123
It redirects folks to another site using an id it pulls from the database.
I'd like to track the page on Google Analytics, see where users are coming from, and what popular sites they're going to.. etc.
I currently set up the page so that it pulls (with PHP) the link from the database, and outputs the ga.js stuff and a javascript redirect.
The issue is that I'm getting the data on my analytics dashboard as if every id is a different page..
What is a better way to do this?
If you want to check for pages of the type redirect.php?id=x then the page Carlos links to is how you would do it.
You would want to exclude the id parameter from your search. Then Analytics would combine all the redirect.php?id=1 redirect.php?id=2 redirect.php?id=3 pages as just a single page named redirect.php
How do I exclude query parameters from my reports?
