I'm trying to track my users through a website. I've installed google analytics but its a bit too anonymous for me. I'd like to track users on a per user/per visit basis.
Is there a service out there that does this (I can't seem to find one)? Would I be better off writing some bespoke code to do it?

Can anyone tell me how can I track number of views,likes,comments and shares in a collaboration and community site. This is not a Google site. This site was created using lumapps. It's a collaboration site, Which works similar to Google+, where you can write a blog, post and like/ share the same. I need a way of keep tracking the likes/shares/views on such posts or blogs, So that I can display the same in Google data studio.
I heard it's possible using Google tag manager. Can anyone confirm this OR let me know about anyways of achieving the same.
Thanks and Regards
Kumar
You would do this by sending an event to Google Analytics and using this source in Data Studios.
Please see reference on how to send events using Google Tag Manager and custom Variables.

We are currently trying to use Concrete5 to create an internal Intranet for the company I work for (this is a web-based server). What we would like to do is allow our employees to sign in using their Gmail and be able to see their personal calendars amongst other things on sign in.
I would like the employees to just sign in once, get automatically asked for granting permissions during the login, and then be taken to the home page.
I'm having trouble figure out how to modify Concrete5's built-in Google login to request these scopes. I am pretty bare-bones in my PHP knowledge and no amount of Google searching has really answered my question specifically for modifying the authentication for Concrete5.
So to sum up my question:
How would someone go about modifying Concrete5's Google authentication to request additional permissions? We are using 5.8.3 and are always updating as necessary, so modifying the core is not really an option to prevent overwrites in the future.
The best way to do that would be to copy the core Google login system to create a new one. You could call it Google Custom or anything you want. You could include it in the folder application/authentication or in a package, with the appropriate modifications.
But to be honest, if you're bare-bones in your PHP knowledge, it all might be a bit too difficult to achieve
My company just set up a new service. We are going to use WordPress as our CMS. To solve the WordPress search engine issue we got the Google Search Appliance. Unfortunately after setting us the GSA the collections does not give us any results.
Does anyone have an experience with GSA and WP?
Any help appreciated.
It may not be an exact answer to your question, but you may want to look at other solutions for your Wordpress site that are not GSA. For example, Algolia has a search plugin that takes just 2 minutes to install and set up, with out-of-the-box relevance, typo-tolerance & a great analytics dashboard to monitor activity.
If there isn't a particular reason you've opted for GSA (curious to know if there is), this might be an easier solution than building out (or buying) a connect.
Is there a way with Google Analytics, or maybe with something else, to get the old analytics information on the wordpress website? I have not used any kind of analytics to track visitation.
So sorry if this is a stupid question or does not make sense.
Not possible to use JS(Google Analytics, etc) to access past visitors. The only thing you can possibly do, I would assume, is viewing the past server logs and seeing whos accessed the site by I.P. You could possibly parse this to show unique ones, showing unique visitors.
Though it's not at all accurate, that's the only option you have as far as I'm aware.

Is good to place google analytics in pages like admistration, article edit page, ... ?
The reason why I use Google Analytics is to give important information to my clients about how their websites are being used. Because of that I wouldnt include the admin area of the website because it doesnt affect their sales or conversions.
By adding code into the admin zone you are inflating the total pageviews. If you really want to track this information then its not a disaster, you would just need to be sure to setup a profile which filters out these urls when making business decisions with your Analytics info.
Technically I think to use Google Analytics it is supposed to be on a free, public website but I guess having some of the pages locked isnt going to get your account closed.
Yes, it keeps stats on how often you or others use admin features. I also suggest that you use Google webmaster tools on them too.
