I am looking for the most ‘native’ way to track page properties in Piwik.
For example:
One page on my site may be about “Sam” and also about “Jodie”. I would like to track both at the page level.
Custom dimensions don’t work as each dimension has a single value, and there may be several thousand people that an article can be about. Content tracking seems like a hacky workaround (it’s not a little bit of the page that is about Sam or Jodie, the whole article is about both).
Essentially I’d like to track one pageview for a “Sam” article, and track the same pageview for a “Jodie” article.
I’m concerned that each of these are similarly ‘hack-y.’ The most promising being events, however the documentation states “Events are used to track interactions which are not pageviews.”
In this case I am specifically looking to record pageviews. It looks like content tracking is the best workaround available at the moment.
he best I can come up with given current functionality is this:
_paq.push([‘trackContentImpression’, ‘topic’, ‘piwik’, ‘’]);
_paq.push([‘trackContentImpression’, ‘topic’, ‘google’, ‘’]);
If anyone has any further suggestions I’m all ears.
