Question

I have added a custom var to my google analytcs tracking to group pages, for example:

_gaq.push(['_setCustomVar', 1, 'page-group', 'cat-technology', 3]);

Now I’m able to view customvar’s analytics, but it only shows me visitors.

How can I display pageviews for a customvar?

Answer 1

If you are looking to see the results specific to those custom vars in any report, you can also se a Advanced Segment and apply it to the reports:

• Click on Advanced Segments on any report, and choose + New Custom Segment
• On the Field, choose “Include” and CustomVar(Key (Your Key)), then “Containing” and finally type in the value you are looking for ( or range, using a regex )

There you go, you can now see almost all reports containing only information about the visits marked with that Custom Var.
