// INSTRUCTIONS | |
// 1. In the URL above, change the following four variables at the start | |
// of the URL to the ones appropriate for you: | |
// | |
// EDIT__YOUR_ANALYTICS_REPORT_ID | |
// EDIT__NUMBER_OF_DAYS_TO_SHOW | |
// EDIT__INCLUDE_TODAY_TRUE_OR_FALSE | |
// EDIT__URL_OF_REPORT_YOU_WANT_TO_SHOW | |
// | |
// What do each of these actually refer to? | |
// | |
// EDIT__YOUR_ANALYTICS_REPORT_ID (string) | |
// This is the ID of your analytics account and | |
// will look something like a845538w4920063p60424739. | |
// Note that this is different from your GA ID and can be found | |
// by looking at the URL of your analytics reports | |
// e.g. for | |
// https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#report/visitors-browser/a845538w4920063p60424739/%3F_.date00%3D20120620%26_.date01%3D20120627/ | |
// the appropriate ID would be a845538w4920063p60424739 | |
// EDIT__NUMBER_OF_DAYS_TO_SHOW (integer) | |
// How many days back you want the report to go (e.g. 7 for a week) | |
// EDIT__INCLUDE_TODAY_TRUE_OR_FALSE (bool) | |
// Do you want the report to end with yesterday or today? Enter true for | |
// tody and false for yesterday | |
// EDIT__URL_OF_REPORT_YOU_WANT_TO_SHOW (string) | |
// The URL of the GA report you want to see. You can create different | |
// bookmarklets for different reports. | |
// e.g. https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#report/visitors-browser/ | |
// or https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#dashboard/default/ | |
// | |
// A completed bookmarklet should look like the one below: | |
// javascript: function analyticsURL(){ var properties = { profileID: 'a845538w4920063p60424739', daysToShow: 7,includeToday: false,report_url: 'https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#report/visitors-browser' }; function stringify(date){ return date.getFullYear().toString() + pad(date.getMonth() + 1) + pad(date.getDate()); }; function pad(numeral){ return numeral<10 ? '0' + numeral.toString() : numeral.toString(); }; void(properties.report_url = properties.report_url.replace(/([^/])$/, '$1/')); var endDate = new Date(); var startDate = new Date(); properties.includeToday ? false : endDate.setDate( endDate.getDate()-1 ); startDate.setDate( endDate.getDate() - properties.daysToShow + 1 ); return properties.report_url + properties.profileID + '/%3F_.date00%3D' + stringify(startDate) + '%26_.date01%3D' + stringify(endDate) + '/'; }; window.location = analyticsURL(); | |
// | |
// 2. Open your bookmarks manager and add a new bookmark | |
// 3. Copy across the bookmarklet you've made and make sure that it starts | |
// with 'javascript: '. Some browsers (e.g. Chrome) strip this for security | |
// reasons but make sure it's there or it'll stop the bookmarklet working | |
// -------------------------------------- | |
// RAW CODE | |
// (you don't need to see this but it's here if you want to play with it) | |
