Google Analytics
Modern Campus CMS offers two different Gadget options that pull in Google Analytics data: Page analytics and Site Analytics.
Use Page analytics for a more fine-grain look at data specific to a page and Site Analytics for a more general overview of data trends.
Please report any Google Analytics related issues to the IT Service Desk.
Accessing Gadgets Menu
The gadgets menu is accessible on the right-hand side of the screen near the top of the scrollbar.
Please note that the availability or visibility of different gadgets depend on the type of content you are trying to edit. For example, Page Analytics is only available when you are on a .pcf file.
Page analytics is a dropdown menu. Click on the down arrow to see more of its functionality. Click on Expand View to access more detailed views.
Page Analytics Gadget
Page analytics provide a more fine-grain data set specific to your chosen page. As with Site Analytics, you are given the option to choose between default date ranges or create your own custom date range .
Note in the Analytics pop up window:
- 1 - Analytics Home Button
- 2 - Site Dropdown
- 3 - Date Range Selection dropdown and date picker
- 4 - Forward and Backward Arrows to expand data set selections
Troubleshooting
Ensure that you have selected the correct parent website in the dropdown or you will not be viewing correct data. In the example above, note that the dropdown is showing [SOM - GA4] data.
Site Analytics Gadget
Site Analytics can be accessed via the CMS's Dashboard View. This offers analytics information pertinent to your entire site.
Verify that you are accessing the correct website. In this example, the dropdown is showing [www.lsuhsc.edu GA4] data.
You can select from default date ranges or create a custom date range from the calendar icon.
Troubleshooting
If you are unable to see Site Analytics on your dashboard, click the gear icon for Configure Dashboard Gadgets inside your user account module. This will open the Dashboard Configuration window. Make sure Site Analytics is checked, and be sure to save your changes.
