   Hi, first i would like to thank you for your great plugin. Very good work and exactly what i was looking for!

   I need to track the full URLs for outbound links. This works ok:
   onclick-Handler is set, GA receives the data, so everything would be fine, except:
   I use the german, localized GA, and when i click through "/outbound/" "/article/", the next clickable item is: "/http:/" and thats the problem. It should be "/http://". The only way to workaround is to manually add %2f in the URL-field of the browser to get the outbounding URLs displayed.

   Because this sucks, i hacked the googleanalytics.php to skip adding "http://" for full url tracking:
   In function ga_parse_link($leaf, $matches), i changed:

   } else if ($options['domainorurl'] == "url") {
   						$coolBit .= "javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('".$leaf."/".$matches[2]."//".$matches[3]."');";
   					}

   to
   

   } else if ($options['domainorurl'] == "url") {
   						$coolBit .= "javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('".$leaf."/".$matches[3]."');";
   					}

   Seems to work nice so far, but maybe there is an official workaround for this Problem?

   Kind Regards,

   RokBlog

   Hi RokBlog,

   I've asked here for assistance here about an onclick tracking issues with GA and domains with two dots (e.g. .co.za) but no one has replied so I wonder if you can offer some assistance?

   My support topic is at http://wordpress.org/support/topic/274888

   Thanks in advance.
