Tracking Doc Views in the Live Preview World
Reported by WTG User | April 28th, 2010 @ 10:01 AM | in Flagship 2.2.1
Is there any way that we can tally how many times the live preview link is clicked on a PDF or Word doc and sum that number with the total number of raw downloads? Now that we have the much-needed Live Preview, it's likely to be extremely popular and could cause the number of downloads to drop dramatically.

I actually don't expect the number of downloads to drop
significantly. Unless Google is caching the document it's still being
accessed, just by Google not the end user.It's probably a good idea to throw some analytics JS into the live
preview JS to help distinguish the two sources of downloads. -

I added the following code to gaq.push(['trackEvent', 'document', 'live_preview', '<%= @document.id %>']); to the studentsenate code. This isn't committed because not everyone uses Google Analytics....
