Ok, I found a problem with the original code. I was setting the custom variable AFTER the trackPageview call, so Google was never being notified of the custom variable

So, try it this way:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var _gaq = _gaq || [];
    _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-XXXXX-X']); // <== put your GA code here
    _gaq.push(['_setCustomVar',
      1,
      'Template',
      'MyTemplateName' // <== customise here for each template
   ]);
    _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
   (function() {
     var ga = document.createElement('script');
     ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
     ga.src = ('https:'   == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl'   : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
     var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
    })();
  </script>


Really sorry about this. I'm just trying the new version myself and will let you know if/when it starts working.

OK Great, I did the change. I will get back to you as soon as I get some data.

Cheers m8,

Alex,

Although I'm very interested in the solution to this, it has gotten to be outside the realm of support for MetaMod or MetaTemplate. Could I suggest that you take this up with Google, and continue to trawl their forums for alternative methods of achieving the results you are after?

Sorry I can't help more with this.

Best regards,
Stephen
