Showing Button Clicked in Google Analytics - How to check which button has been clicked?
-
For my E commerce site in my google analytic in Event Action it is showing "Button Clicked" and Total Events 4005, so i want to know visitors have clicked on which buttons?

When you create event tracking, you can assign a category and label to each button that would help classify the clicks for easier understanding of user behavior.
Here is the code that I use
| onclick="ga('send', 'event', 'Category', 'Action', 'Label');" |
So if I had a category for shoes, action is add to cart and the label would be the specific shoe like Orange Adidas F-30 the code would look like this
| onclick="ga('send', 'event', 'Shoes', 'Add to Cart', 'Orange Adidas F-30');" |
When you view Events in GA, you can then see all up overview, or broken down by category, or action if there is more than one action and then the specific item.
It's a lot of manual work, I use Excel to help with the code by using the Concatenate formula.

You can also use the analytics heat mapping tool. It will show you how many clicks anything on your site is receiving. I added a Generator Sizing Calculator to my site and it told me how many clicks it was getting right away. It is pretty accurate too.

Hi,
Did you just use one event tracking code for all of your buttons on the website?
It's like giving links in a newsletter the same utm code and than trying to find out which item in the newsletter was clicked. I guess you could try and check on the full referral path as a second dimension.For future use of the event tracking try and use specific tracking labels to be able to reference to a certain button.
Good luck!

Google Analytics, new property or views?
Hi All We have an existing Google analytics account which was customised relatively heavily a few years back, with custom variables, e-commerce tracking and the a large number of filters. We have determined that the custom variables and e-commerce tracking, at least for now, are no longer required and actually complicating our lives. We want to simplify the account and add a fresh set of goals and events. Our initial train of thought was to create an entire new property with the usual views, raw, test, main etc. We are proposing to retain both properties (6 months) so we can still do some comparative stuff. We're now wondering if we should retain the existing property and just create new views, the downside being that whilst we can compare data with previous periods it's meaningless to some degree as the filters etc are different. The plus of more views is that we're not firing the tag twice retaining two properties. Views and opinions welcome. Thanks

Google Analytics: How to Track Blog Traffic that Enter the Purchase Funnel?
I've been trying to figure this out for awhile, but I have had no luck. The current ecommerce store that I work for is trying to find out how to track how many people coming in via the blog are converting/buying. The site lives on Magento and the blog is on wordpress and they both use the same Google Analytics code. Site URL: http://website.com/ Blog URL: http://website.com/blog Is there anyway to do this so you can see which landing pages are driving conversions? If not, Is it possible to set up Google Analytics to show conversions and revenue coming from people who enter through blog directory?

Registration tracking with Google Analytics
Hi everyone, I want to track user registrations with Google Analytics for a customer's website. The thing is after registration visitors are not directed to a specific page, so I can't set it as a goal. I thought of tracking submit button with event tracking, but that data would not be true as a visitor may click it more than once, and there's the login with facebook and twitter thing. Before convincig customer to create a registration confirmation page, I want to make sure there's no other way as they don't want to make any changes to the current website. Any ideas?
