Support optional use of Google Analytics #102

Open imaginator opened 11 years ago

imaginator commented 11 years ago

Add the ability of a sysadmin deploying buddycloud to optionally run buddycloud with Google Analytics and optimise for performance.

Expose the propertyID (UA-XXXXX-X) in the config.js file

https://github.com/kendagriff/backbone.analytics and http://nerds.airbnb.com/how-to-add-google-analytics-page-tracking-to-57536 might be useful

ping simon@buddycloud.com if you need a test tracking or access to the buddycloud analytics account.

This would help us to track the ongoing performance of the site. Not sure why it fell off the v1 issue list but we really should be tracking use of the webclient like the other sites.

Please add it soon so that we can track page-load speed.

Should also include piwik support at the same time as its little extra effort :)

Yes. I generally react strongly when I visit a website which allegedly is respecting privacy and find out that it provides Google with data using Google Analytics. And I am blocking Google Analytics using NoScript anyway.
