GA Regular Expression
-
Can anyone tell me how to do a regular expression in the new version of GA? I want to remove specific keywords from organic reports.
In the previous version of GA I used the following (phrase1|phrase2|phrase3) but that doesn't work anymore.

Thanks Craig...didn't see that!

Hi Omar,
The option is still there. Next the the search box that you used to put the RegEx in, click on the advanced tab and select "Exclude" , "Keyword" "matching RegEx"
See the attached image. I hope this helps.

Hi Omar,
Wow, missed this one. Quite weird that Google Analytics 'decided' to leave the Does not Match Regular Expression out of the new version for advanced segments. I know this is not the best solution. But while the old version is still available I would recommend to create an advanced segment in there. It will also be available in the new version.
Allright, Craig beat me on this ;-)! Missed the exclude for this one.

Multiple GA codes, one site.
Hi all, Is anyone running two GA codes on one website successfully? My organisation own a number of websites so we used to have one global GA code on all our sites to track global stats, and then we would also have site unique GA on each property to just track that one property. This worked fine, but of late we seem to be getting no data from the globally based code. Obviously, with the site-specific codes we can enter the name for that domain in GA but for the overall code, it is called 'all.com' I'm wondering if Google has now tied the GA domain to the code or if we are doing something wrong. All the codes are the same as they always were but have stopped working. As a stop gap, we have swapped to using Piwik as the all.com code. However, we are then comparing the stats in two different analytics programs so will get a different result. Also, it would be nice to be able to add the all.com to tools such as this to generate weekly reports. Anyone else having GA woe like this? Thanks. Carl

Creating Goals in GA
Hi I don't know if the below can be done, and I can't seem to find an answer anywhere. Ideally I want to capture the event of registering for an account. Ultimately I want to know which products, pages etc drive customer registrations but which do not lead to a purchase (Registered Not Bought). Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks Andy

Has GA changed how it calculates bounce rate?
Updated website from Magento backend to Wordpress and since the redeploy, my bounce rate has dropped from 40% to 4%. I did check to see if there was duplicate GA tracking code but only one call. I checked reports under "visitor flow" and one page visits seem inline with the previous bounce rate. Weird. Never experienced this before.
