Hi Kay,

we developed some enhancements for the piwik extension in the past. Please feel free to merge the features from:

https://github.com/Intera/typo3-extension-piwik

The changes are already rebased on the latest version of your repository.

Please let me know if we can help.

Cheers,
Alex

Piwik has new optional options for his tracking-code.

_paq.push(["setDocumentTitle", document.domain + "/" + document.title]);
paq.push(["setCookieDomain", ".example.com, http"]);
paq.push(["setDomains", [".example.com, http","*.example.com"]]);

Test OpenId Plugin for that -> needs to add user + permissions before via API

I've installed the master branch in TYPO3 7.5 and get an error

PHP Fatal error: Class 'Tx_Piwik_PiwikApi_PiwikTracker' not found in typo3/sysext/core/Classes/Utility/GeneralUtility.php on line 4348

If I add
require_once(\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::extPath('piwik').'Classes/PiwikApi/PiwikTracker.php');
in ext_localconf.php like it is done for Footer.php
everything works like it should.

I thing this is just a workaround and not a real fix.

Piwik offers to evaluate internal search parameters.

Piwikintegration could offer to search for such parameters in typo3 and installed extensions (e.g. tx_indexedsearch[sword],tx_browser_pi1[sword]) and auto-configure piwik.

Hi,

the -Tag ends up with invalid markup because the ampersand sign of the src attribute of the tracking pixel isn't masked as entity. I did a little change to footer.php as a workaround (line numbers 131-135:

131    if (strlen($this->piwikOptions['trackGoal'])) {
132       $template = str_replace('###TRACKING_IMAGE_URL###', str_replace('&','&', $this->piwikTracker->getUrlTrackGoal($this->piwikOptions['trackGoal'])), $template);
133    } else {
134        $template = str_replace('###TRACKING_IMAGE_URL###', str_replace('&','&', $this->piwikTracker->getUrlTrackPageView()), $template);
135    }

The second str_replace(...) instruction does the trick.
HTH

There have been some bugfixes since the 3.1.0 release. Can we expect a new release sometime soon?

I think in getBaseUrl() we should change self::$URL .= '/piwik.php'; ==> self::$URL .= 'piwik.php';
The slash is already in piwik_host and causes double slashes in the fallback image url.

With older Piwik versions it was possible to use multiple tracking codes in one page.

This does not seem to work any more. When trying to call trackPageView multiple times you get a JavaScript error.

There is a possiblity to provide an addtional tracking URL and website ID to track the same page to multiple trackers:

https://developer.matomo.org/guides/tracking-javascript-guide#multiple-piwik-trackers

Feel free to cherry-pick a solution for this from:

Right now ext_emconf.php states compatibility wirth TYPO3 CMS 4.5.0-6.0.99

This is a bit annoying on 6.2 LTS instances, as the extension seems to work nicely... :-)

With newer Matomo versions you will likely get some tracking error messages because the IP address is submitted as a parameter which requires a valid API token:

https://matomo.org/faq/how-to/faq_30835/

You see a failed tracking request with this error message when you use specific tracking parameters as part of the HTTP tracking API without authenticating the request correctly. Some parameters that require authentication are for example cip (forcing a specific IP address), or cdt (overrides the datetime of the request).

The updated version of the Matomo PHP API fixes this problem by only submitting the IP address if an API token is available.

Feel fee to cherr-pick an updated version of the API from:
Intera@775f252

Right now trackBackendUsers = 0 does only work within the same domain you are logged in to the backend.

Is there a possibility to enhance this functionality that it would work for a page tree serving multiple domains?
