Site analytics data plug-in
Use the AnalyticsData rendering plug-in tag to inject microformats for Active Site Analytics into the web content.
The microformats gather information about the content items that are rendered on the portal pages. We can insert more than one tag into the content.
Add the AnalyticsData plug-in tag to the content or presentation template design. Each tag can contain only one attribute. Use the following syntax:
[Plugin:AnalyticsData property="" | element="" | value= "" css-class = ""]
To select a value used in the microformat for Active Site Analytics, use one of the following attributes:
property
id The unique identifier of the content. title The display title of the content. path The unique path of the content in the library. lastmodified The date when the content was last modified. authors The author or authors of the content. If the content has more than one author, one microformat tag is written for each author. element Select an element from the content. The element must be a text or short text element type. For the value of this attribute, specify the name of the element to be selected. value Pass a text value to the plug-in. If you set this attribute, also set the CSS class value using the attribute css-class. See the following description of this attribute for details. In a single reference to a tag, we can use only one of the previous attributes. To use more than one attribute, add another reference to the tag.
- css-class
- Control which CSS class is used for the microformat tags. This attribute is mandatory when we specify the value attribute. The attribute is optional when we use the property attribute or the element attribute. If you do not specify this attribute with the property attribute or the element attribute, the CSS class is determined from the value of the property attribute or the element attribute. In this case, the CSS class is generated by prefixing asa.wcm.content_item. and the value of the property attribute or the element attribute.
