Enable Ecommerce Tracking with Google Tag Manager
-
Hello all,
I am having an issue with tracking the sales on a webshop, and I would like to know how I can enable the ecommerce tracking with Google Tag Manager?
Right now I am tracking the pageviews fine, firing a Universal Analytics tag.
How can I achieve this?
Thank you.
-
Great thank you, I am sticking with the normal GA method.

Hello.
We found exactly the same thing, the GTM is very complex! As such we came to the same conclusion and decided to also sick with the normal GA system.
I did get GTM working though but found the results it provided to be not a great deal better.
Have a nice day.
Paul Hughes.

Thank you for your answer. I have looked at how I could integrate the ecommerce functionality with GTM, but it is not as easy as I hoped it would be.
The normal way of just flipping a switch in GA, is much easier, so I just think I will stick to that for now. Thank you!

Hello.
If you have your google tag manager code published already on your site all you need to do is add some additional code for the ecommerce features, which can be found at: https://support.google.com/tagmanager/answer/6106097?hl=en
We found that this was not the only way to do this and we found GA's own tracking to work much easier than via Tag Manager.
Paul Hughes.

Was Google Analytics and Adsense Down Today?
For the last 4 hours of so we were registering zero users and Adsense reporting has not changed. We checked the site, and there were no problems. It seems for some reason there was no reporting. Just now it came back up and we are showing live traffic. Trying to figure out if this was a problem specific to us or if it is on Google's end. Thanks,

Conversion Tracking Setup; Is there a decent guide?
Ok, I'm looking into how to set up conversion tracking for our website, and frankly, I'm totally confused. In looking at Google documentation, I'm not sure if I need to use Tag manager, throw some code into the site with jQuery, or sacrifice a goat. I'd like to implement a variety of tracking goals / events / things on several websites, so I'm really looking for a comprehensive guide. I couldn't find any in depth stuff on google. Help?

Google Analytics - Dashboard Question
I'm looking to set up a dashboard widget in Google Analytics that does the following but can't : Shows traffic sources in a table as the dimension, and wanting to show goal completions to a specific product page and then only show what the average time spent (by source) on just those product pages. It looks like it's showing the whole session duration for the entire source, but I want to create a secondary filter that is only showing the time spent on those specific pages. Can anyone help - or is this possible? Thanks all!
