Lay Theme Forum

Thanks @arminunruh

hei @fabiandraxl
hei @Richard

i dont know, how to finally fix this. but i am experiencing the same issue. but while i deactivated the carousel addon, there are no cookies set. so i assume, the third party integration of youtube is happening right there.

Hi all!
I am using matomo together with laytheme. And as you know, laytheme builds javascript single page application, the page visits are hardly to track. Luckily after a long search I found a code snippet, that helped to get this functionality and I want to share it to those, who are struggling also. Inserting it into the head section will get the page view tracking running.

Cheers!
Sebastian

<!-- Matomo -->
<script type="text/javascript">

  // Custom locationchange event
  history.pushState = ( f => function pushState(){
      var ret = f.apply(this, arguments);
      window.dispatchEvent(new Event('pushstate'));
      window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'));
      return ret;
  })(history.pushState);

  history.replaceState = ( f => function replaceState(){
      var ret = f.apply(this, arguments);
      window.dispatchEvent(new Event('replacestate'));
      window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'));
      return ret;
  })(history.replaceState);

  window.addEventListener('popstate',()=>{
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'))
  });
  
  var _paq = window._paq || [];
  _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
  _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);

  (function() {
    var u="//{$PIWIK_URL}/";
    _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'matomo.php']);
    _paq.push(['setSiteId', {$IDSITE}]);
    var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
    g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.defer=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
  })();
  
  // Single Page Application Tracking
  var formerUrl = location.href;
  window.addEventListener('locationchange', function() {
      _paq.push(['setReferrerUrl', formerUrl]);
      _paq.push(['setCustomUrl', location.href]);
      //_paq.push(['setDocumentTitle', document.title]);

      // remove all previously assigned custom variables, requires Matomo (formerly Piwik) 3.0.2
      _paq.push(['deleteCustomVariables', 'page']); 
      _paq.push(['setGenerationTimeMs', 0]);
      _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
  });
</script>
<!-- End Matomo Code -->

Well, it's not possible to insert it as link unfortunately. But as workaround you can edit the source code directly in the 'add text' window.

Dear @mariusjopen

I just found out, that you implemented a checkbox (See Lay Options -> Other -> Embed Instagram JavaScript) in one of the last updates, to not embed the instagram javascript code. So first my wp_dequeue_instagram is not needed anymore and second I know now, that the js is needed to embed instagram stuff.

Thanks anyway!

Hi @leooo,
beside what Marius said, you're right in your assumption. Google is ranking websites without ssl negative. So you better activate https.

Hi!
I would suggest a new feature: As I did a lot of bugfixing, I had to remove and add custom code again and again. Instead of this copy/paste-mechanism I would prefer a switch in the laytheme settings to turn off all custom code at once.

Looking forward to feedback!

Cheers,
Sebastian

Well, this is an unexpected solution. But it works.
Thanks!
