Does URI Mgmt change Google Analytic page links

[Jim Cockerham]

I just updated my site to a Ready Theme and enabled the URI management. I notice that the Google analytics module is no longer using (tracking) the short-links (/bask.html) but is now using the long links (/mm5/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=ACS&Screen=BASK) . Is this due to the URI management or something else? The URI is still set to /BASK.html in the new URI Mgmt. My Google Analytics code has not changed. Any ideas?

Thanks

Re: Does URI Mgmt change Google Analytic page links

Have you enabled 'Short Links' under Legacy SEO Settings in URI Management?

Re: Does URI Mgmt change Google Analytic page links

Hi Doak - well originally when I enabled URI management I turned off "Enable SEO-Friendly Store Front" and 'Short Links' in the Legacy SEO settings. But since I am having this problem, I turned the "short links" back on but it makes no difference.

Here is what I ended up with to fix the issue in my instance. I don't really know why the short links are no longer being pulled by the Miva Google Analytics module. I'm posting this in case anyone else runs into this problem. You might have to modify the link structure for your link style:

<script>
(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
})(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');

ga('create', '&mvt:ga_tracking:google_id;', 'auto'); 
<mvt:if expr="(g.screen EQ 'SRCH')">
ga('send', 'pageview', '/SRCH.html?Search=&mvta:global:Search;');
<mvt:elseif expr="(g.Screen EQ 'CTGY')">
ga('send', 'pageview', '/c/&mvt:global:category_code;.html');
<mvt:elseif expr="(g.Screen EQ 'PROD')">
ga('send', 'pageview', '/p/&mvt:global:product_code;.html');
<mvt:else>
ga('send', 'pageview', '/&mvt:global:screen;.html'); 
</mvt:if>
ga('require', 'ecommerce', 'ecommerce.js'); 
</script>

Having the same problem, except my google analytics tracking code page looks very different:
