I will no longer be supporting this plugin. This plugin supports Classic (or Old) GA. Univiersal Analytics is out of Beta and in a short time Google will require that everyone converts their GA accounts to UA. Everyone should be migrating upgrading their accounts and migrating to the new code.

Please see my previous announcements below. My suggestion is to switch to UA and use Google Tag Manager to do all the event tracking this plugin was doing and more.

Installs GA on site. Event tracking of outbound, email, click to call and document links. Form Tracking. Conversion Tracking. Cross site Tracking.

Anouncement:

With recent changes to the Google Tag Manager, this tool now basically removes the need to have a script like this one that installs GA and addes events to links, forms, and everything else these plugins do. I am currently evaluating my future plans for this plugin.

Important Notice: This plugin uses Classic Analytics (ga.js) and not the new version of GA Universal Analytics (analytics.js) currently in public beta. For more information read this anouncment. If your GA account is set up for the new version then you cannot use this plugin. I have added making this plugin compatable with the new version of GA to my "To-Do" list.
