I know I’m late to the party as I have been off work, but we use “Custom 
variables” quite a bit and there is little that can’t be done with them.

Apologies if a later poster has discussed these!

Cheers

Subject: [phpug] OT: Track download of PDF with Google Analytics

 

A contact has Google Analytics on her Wordpress site, but as Analytics tracking 
is client-side she doesn't know how to tell how many people download her pdf 
brochure. 

I know this can be tracked using the web server's logs, but correlating that to 
Analytics looks like hard work.

Does anyone know how to get GA to track the downloads?

Thanks in advance
