Don't want to track logged-in admin users

    A very, very basic requirement of a Google Analytics plugin is that you can stop logged-in users from being tracked, otherwise your statistics are distorted.

    In your FAQ page you have the following:

    The plugin can track login and register page?
    If the option is set to “Yes”, Yes, it does.

    I have set this to “No” but I was being trackeded when I am logged-in as an Administrator.

    Two months ago a member, Tilto, was having the same problem and suggested a patch to fix this problem.

    I used his suggestion and I was no longer counted.

    Your new version has just been released, and I am being counted again. I reinstalled Tilto’s code and the problem was once again fixed.

    Now, it is your plugin, and you can have what ever code you want, but I am curious why you haven’t included this fix. Am I missing something?

    Hi Keith13,

    I was thinking about your request and did some changes, for now is just a “beta” http://www.marodok.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/nk-google-analytics.zip

    Can you test and give some feedback?

    Regards

    Hi Marodok,

    Thank you for your efforts, but something is not quite right.

    I can’t activate the beta version of your plugin, and I am getting the following error message at the top of my plugin page:

    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘[‘ in /home/wantok/public_html/walkinginfrance.info/wp-content/plugins/nk-google-analytics/NKgoogleanalytics.php on line 84

    Best wishes

    Hi Marodok,

    I tested the beta version every way I could think of and it worked perfectly.

    Well done, but (there is always a but)…

    I installed the beta version over the 1.3.9 version, and it didn’t pick up the Google Analytics ID from the 1.3.9 version. I had to re-enter the Google ID, which isn’t the best.

    Anyway, thank you very much.
