Google Analytics with Moodle 2.0

I wanted to use Google Analytics with the Moodle site because further down the line I know people are going to want to see those numbers.  Plus, you know, I can use it to improve the site.

Implementing the tracking code is easy enough but like everything with Moodle I had to search around for information on how to do it.

Firstly you have to sign up with Google and register for Analytics (search for Google Analytics and follow the steps until you get to the Tracking Code section.)

Copy the generated Tracking Code, then on your Moodle site go to:

Site Administration > Appearance > Additional HTML

Paste the code into the 'Within Head' box and click Save Changes.  Return to the Google Analytics page and click Save and Finish.

Now wait for the hits to roll in.
