Adding Matomo tracking

[gokomer]

Hello,

I'm trying to add Matomo tracking script to cactus. Matomo gave me a js code and I modified it as below and add it to the _partial/scritps.ejs.

<!-- Matomo -->
<% if (theme.matomo_analytics.enabled && theme.matomo_analytics.site_id && theme.matomo_analytics.site_url && theme.matomo_analytics.subdomain){ %>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    var _paq = window._paq = window._paq || [];
    /* tracker methods like "setCustomDimension" should be called before "trackPageView" */
    _paq.push(["setDocumentTitle", document.domain + "/" + document.title]);
    _paq.push(["setCookieDomain", "*.<%= theme.matomo_analytics.site_url %>"]);
    _paq.push(["setDomains", ["*.<%= theme.matomo_analytics.site_url %>"]]);
    _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
    _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
    (function() {
      var u="https://<%= theme.matomo_analytics.subdomain %>.matomo.cloud/";
      _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'matomo.php']);
      _paq.push(['setSiteId', '<%= theme.matomo_analytics.site_id %>']);
      var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
      g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.src='//cdn.matomo.cloud/<%= theme.matomo_analytics.subdomain %>.matomo.cloud/matomo.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
    })();
  </script>
  <noscript><p><img src="https://<%= theme.matomo_analytics.subdomain %>.matomo.cloud/matomo.php?idsite=1&amp;rec=1" style="border:0;" alt="" /></p></noscript>
<% } %>

Add the following to the _config files.

matomo_analytics:
  enabled: true
  id: 1
  subdomain: subdomain
  domain: domain.com

But matomo can't get any data from my site. Can you give me any info about what's wrong with my approach?

I do not know Matomo, but it seems that you forgot to add site_id and site_url to the config.

I'm sorry. It looks like I posted older config file. It looks like the below.

matomo_analytics:
  enabled: true
  site_id : 1
  subdomain: subdomain
  site_url: domain.com

If this is all I need to do to implement this tracking then I'll check the configuration of matomo side.

Simply look at the html source of your site and check whether the tracking code is there. It seems ok to me.
