Configuring GA for EPiServer 7 when using MVC?

Vote:
 

Hi 

We are using MVC4 on our EPiServer 7 CMS project and want to add the Google Analytics plugin.

However, as the plugin documentation mentions only the web forms implementation, I am wondering how we output the GA Script when using _Layout.cshtml and Razor syntax.

 

Is it possible for us to use the GA Plugin with MVC and Razor syntax?

If you are using the GA plugin from the EPiServer Add-Ons, you actually only need this in the bottom of the layout:

@Html.Raw(Html.RequiredClientResources("Footer"))

   

Optionally, you could manually get the GA script using this:

@Html.AnalyticsTrackingScript(currentPage)

    

If you look at the developer guide for the GA module for CMS 6 R2, they briefly mention how to use it in MVC:

Thanks Chris. 

I missed that line when I read through the documentation.
