Hello everyone,

I would like to integrate piwik with LimeSurvey is there any easy way to do it?

How would you like to integrate it?

So that Piwik tracks the usage of the questionnaires?

Exactly!

I already have this idea,

Piwik is really better than google stat ... But don't have time to do.

Put this in feature request

Should be no big deal. You need to add the Piwik code at the end of the template. I guess endpage template would be the right place.

Yes,

but no .

Because then you don't have : actual setp on each survey. I already used the script in welcome.pstpl, then have difference betwwen each survey.

Like GA, piwik take by default the url, bit you can use automatic settings in LS core : piwik.org/faq/how-to/#faq_62

Use actual code for GA to do a piwik analytics can be a great idea.

Do you think that this will work?

Thanks for all your responses!

For template,

Think piwik can be added to surveylist.pstpl and welcome.pstpl.

Then each visit are separated by survey or surveylisting.

vovl, once you succeeded to integrate piwik, maybe you can create a short tutorial for other users?!

Apparently I was hoping for support on how to do that.

Did you try, in welcomepage.pstl only: Just add
piwikTracker.setDocumentTitle("{QID}");
To default piwik code.

This has not worked for me nor did the solutions posted previously. So I appreciate that this is probably not the correct method or indeed good practice but here is my solution.

1.Assuming Piwik is installed and setup add your Limesurvey root URL as a website to track e.g. www.somewebsite.com/limesurvey (in piwik 1.9.2 this is done by going Settings > Websites > Add new website)

2.This will generate the custom Piwik Javascript tracking code, it will look almost identical to the above posted by Denis.

3.Create a new blank html document, with nothing in it, place the Javascript code just before the </body> tag.

4.Upload the documents to your template folder.

5.Open your welcome.pstpl in the last section after (WELCOME) but before any closing </td></tr></table> tags (this will depend on your template) add a link to your blank page using an iframe.

You then need to style the iframe (not the embedded page) using CSS to make it invisible, you can either add this to your template CSS or do it inline. Below is an example:


<iframe name='iframe1' id="iframe1" src="/templates/mytemplate/blank.html" frameborder="0" border="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-style: none;width: 100%; height: 0px;"></iframe>

If you keep this in templates you will not need to worry when you run a LS update. If you use more than one template just replicate it there as well.

…there must be a better way but I have not found it. :blush:
