Google Analytics and Activetab issue

Submitted by vjy on Mon, 2010-02-08 16:22

All,

We have implemented google analytics to track the usage of our portal and we are using the filters to make the url easy to understand. We use regular expressions for url matching and we use the active tab to differentiate between tabs.

e.g. ^/tag\..*\.render\.userLayoutRootNode\.uP\?uP_root=root&uP_sparam=activeTab&activeTab=u13l1s2&uP_tparam.* 

But for sometime now, the active tab numbers are changing creating new entries like  /tag.51fd67b3face4dd.render.userLayoutRootNode.uP?uP_root=root&uP_sparam=activeTab&activeTab=u14l1s2&uP_tparam=frm&frm=

for the same tab. You can see the tab nos. are different.

My questions are

1. How do we determine the active tab numbers (I know they are dynamically generated, but is there any control for us in the generation?)
2. How do we deal with such situations.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Anything from the experts. I am more interested in knowing when would the active number change for the same tabs. The sunguard customer rep. was not helpful.

Thanks.

 

active tab number change

 Our tab numbers have never changed.  I'm assuming you aren't deleting/adding tabs that is causing this?  

Thanks Jason, We have not

Thanks Jason,

We have not edited/updated the tabs. It is strange that the tab numbers for the same tabs are different.

 

Would it be that the user created a custom tab and the account I used could not access that tab (since the account does not have that tab), it goes to the home tab by default. By i think the no. of hits are little too high for this scenario though.

tabs

How do you know that the different numbered tabs are the same ones?  We did the same thing with analytics, I renamed the main tabs, but I see a lot of new tabs with just a few hits.  That's telling me that people are creating their own custom tabs. 

Ours also

Our tab numbers have never changed.  I can almost guarantee that yours also have not.  The different numbers that you see are indeed different tabs, even though you may have them named the same.  Just query your database for that tab and you will see. 

up_layout_struct and such tables

Remember that as a user's role change, they will inherit different tabs based on your fragments and eligibility.

Thanks for the replies. Thats

Thanks for the replies. Thats what I thought, the tabs nos. do not change.

But I had asked the question if its possible that the user created a custom tab, but since the test account do not have that tab, it goes to the home tab (I click the visit this page link in the google analytics).

 

I am not sure if they are different tabs (since when I click visit this page, it goes to the home tab).

Thanks.
