New dimension for "Internal site search results" #16617

Open Chardonneaur opened 4 years ago

Chardonneaur commented 4 years ago

Hi there, Here is the anatomy of tracking an internal site search within Matomo: _paq.push(['trackSiteSearch', "Banana", "Organic Food", 100 ]); Source: https://developer.matomo.org/guides/tracking-javascript-guide#internal-search-tracking

The internal site search results refers to the number 100 here. This figure will show up within the log visit report when hovering your mouse on the search term BUT it will show nowhere within the archive reports.

The expected behavior would be to find it within the site search report as a metric column.

Currently, we only use this "site search results count" (3rd parameter) for populating the report "Search Keywords with No Results". Therefore it is expected that this number doesn't show in the reports so far (by design). Thanks for creating the issue.

Hi @mattab thanks for your answer, but then, shouldn't we create an issue for it? here the ticket has been closed. Wouldn't be possible to make it available as a metric within the custom reports at least? Thank you,
