Google analytics id not added to pages about google-analytics-module HOT 15 CLOSED

It may be necessary to update the documentation or enable sendHitTask in dev mode, what do you think @pi0 ?

Made a PR: #54

@ricardogobbosouza I agree! I just spent too long trying to figure out why it wasn't working locally, and it turns out that it was because I wasn't setting debug.sendHitTask to true. The readme doesn't really make that clear, and I feel like it should default to true anyway?

Update: in production it seems to work.
So maybe it's just the configuration for dev mode that's not taking effect

from google-analytics-module.

Yes, I just checked and the UA string is present when generating in production, but not in dev mode. Is there a way to enable it in dev mode for sanity checking?

from google-analytics-module.

I'd accept a PR ☺️

I'm also having this bug in Nuxt 2.7.1 with @nuxtjs/google-analytics 2.2.0. I tried using both configuration options in the README.

Hi @syonip , @azigler

Have tried this?
https://matteogabriele.gitbooks.io/vue-analytics/content/docs/turn-off-development.html
Or
https://matteogabriele.gitbooks.io/vue-analytics/content/docs/console-logs.html

from google-analytics-module.

Thanks @ricardogobbosouza, I've tried this setting and it works in dev:

debug: {
          enabled: true,
          sendHitTask: true
        }

so I guess the only problem is that the docs say:
You can disable module for nuxt dev by setting dev: false option in module options,
but it seems the default is for it to be disabled in dev mode.

What should the default be for dev mode?

from google-analytics-module.

@syonip
In mode dev sendHitTask is disabled

from google-analytics-module.

Think we can close this?

from google-analytics-module.

The documentation seems unclear, like @syonip says. Setting dev: true in the module options doesn't execute sendHitTask, which is the expected behavior.

from google-analytics-module.

The documentation in the vue-analytics repo is exclusively for vue-analytics. The package was created standalone and just wrapped in a Nuxt component to be boot up and start doing certain things automatically.
You won't find anything about Nuxt in the documentation so if something specifically about Nuxt is working adding or removing a boolean here or there, is not intentional

@Anaphase @ricardogobbosouza

A hint in the docs (that the module won't send data to GA in dev mode) would make sense from my POV. Please also take into consideration that changes are only made in nuxt dev which makes sense as you usually don't want to have development traffic.

@manniL
I believe a tip in the documentation would help
