How to use the Google Analytics add-on

The Google Analytics add-on for Boxzilla doesn’t come with its own settings screen, it’s entirely plug & play. After activating the plugin, box events will be sent to your Google Analytics property immediately, provided you have Google Analytics configured on your site.

  1. Upload boxzilla-google-analytics.zip to your site.
  2. Activate the plugin
  3. View your events in Google Analytics

Please note that it can take a while for your events to show up in Google Analytics, up to 24 hours.

Currently, the following Boxzilla related events are sent to Google Analytics.

  • Box showed
  • Box dismissed
  • Link in box clicked
  • Form in box submitted

What method you use for adding Google Analytics to your site is not important. Both using a plugin, the manual snippet or something custom like Google Tag Manager is absolutely fine.
