Google Analytics Admin account not allowing us to add other users?
-
Our Google Analytics Administrator account is not giving us access to the User Manager, and because of that we are unable to add users; have you ever ran in to a problem such as this, if so what was your solution.
Thanks a Billion impressions,
Vijay

Vjay,
For the other two accounts you definitely don't have the administrator rights, because this would have give you access to the EDIT actions which show in the other 3 accounts. For my own account this is exactly the same, like you can see in my screenshot here. For the first 5 accounts I've got the administrative access. For 2 other account I'm only a "user" which don't give me access to the User Manager and the EDIT functions shown on the right side.
The best way to do this is to ask the account owner to give you administrative acces, because this is clearly not a bug within Google Analytics itself.

So of the 5 accounts that I am able to access, 3 of them allow me to see User Manager option to add users but 2 accounts do not give me that option. I hope that clarifies my concern. Yes Martijn you are right its on the individual accounts, but that option is available only on the three accounts and not all 5 for some reason. Please hepl

Hi Vjay,
It looks like you're looking in the wrong place ;-). You're currently looking at the overview of your accounts. But this page never had the ability to click trough to the User Manager. If you click on one of the accounts the profiles for that specific account will appear and also give you the ability to share one of your accounts. The User Manager will appear on the bottom of the page.
Hopefully this answers your question.

Google Analytics Goals - Button Tracking
Does anyone know if there is a really easy way to track a button in Google Analytics yourself? It seems that most button click goal setups involve some use of tricky code and I'm wondering if there is a much easier way to do this that will allow us to simply setup and track certain button clicks as goal conversions in Analytics. Your help here is much appreciated!

Collecting post codes / zip codes in Google Analytics - Terms of Service
Hi Mozzers, Just reading up on Google Analytic's Terms of Service and wondering if collecting post codes / zip codes (from a website's 'Find my nearest...' tool) adhere's to the following: "You will not (and will not allow any third party to) use the Service to track, collect or upload any data that personally identifies an individual (such as a name, email address or billing information), or other data which can be reasonably linked to such information by Google." What do you think?

Is there a way to find out who the admin of a Google Analytics account is?
We have a client who has been searching high and low to gain access to the GA account that is tied to their website, but previous agencies keep stating they don't have access. Is there a way to find out who the admins are on a GA account with the tracking number so we can reach out to that person and ask them to admin the client?

Tracking time spent on a section of a website in Google Analytics
Hi, I've been asked by a client to track time spent or number of pages visited on a specific section of their website using Google Analytics but can't see how to do this. For example, they have a "golf" section within their site and want to measure how many people either visit 5 page or more within the golf section or spend at least 6 minutes browsing the various golf section pages. Can anyone advise how if this can be done, and if so, how I go about it. Thanks

Why is Google Analytics showing index.php after every page URL?
Hi, My client's site has GA tracking code gathering correct data on the site, but the pages are listed in GA as having /index.php at the end of every URL, although this does not appear when you visit the site pages. Even if there is a redirect happening for site visitors, shouldn't GA be showing the pages as their redirect destination, i.e. the URL that visitors actually see? Could this discrepancy be adversely affecting my search performance? Example page: http://freshstarttax.com/innocent-spouse/ shows up in GA as http://freshstarttax.com/innocent-spouse/index.php thanks

Google Analytics and DNS change
Our new alumni application is going be tested at domain uva.imodules.com . We are going to collect traffic data with a Google analytics account number UA-884652-XX. So going to uva.imodules.com/myPage.html would send its data to Google Analytics with that account number. Then when it is ready for production we are going to just change the domain name of the application and switch the DNS over to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu . So going to dardencommunity.darden.virginia.edu /myPage.html would send its data to Google Analtics with that SAME account number. Aside from having the testing domain data in the same profile are there any other issues/problems we may run into?
