Multiple GA codes, one site.

[WonkyDog]

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

You can run multiple GA codes on a website when using for example Google Tag manager. You can store multiple tags in a container. The only thing you have to think of when implementing is: GA is normally placed in the of the page, while Google Tag manager is placed (preferably) right after the opening tag, so probably a code change is needed for you.

Apologies, I didn't get the notification of your response! I am looking now. And the site is down for me right now. Says the server is misconfigured?

Many thanks for the reply, a site with both tracking codes can be seen at http://digitalcatwalk.co.uk/

The top code is the one assigned to the domain in GA and works fine, the second code is the generic one and is not pulling at data

Can you share a URL that has an instance of your tracking code with two trackers on it?
