GA Tracking

I was wondering if it is possible to add GA tracking code to my forum? Since my site and forum are 2 URLS I want to place universal analytic's tracking code across both. Sorry the vanilla tracking is not going to do it for me.

    I would suggest using Pockets, or adding the code to your theme's master template.

    Ok but this does not make sense since you need to add the tracking code the closing </head> of your html. The template if am correct only handles the css. "Pockets" again is only adding custom css capabilities. I just need the html of the forum...I must not be seeing the objective clearly

    The master template (generally found in /themes/yourthemename/views/default.master.tpl) let's you modify the page markup used on every page. You can also modify the head tag in there.

    Incorrect. You can write anything you like in a "pocket" and it will render on the page "as is". Add the GA script, and it will run. Alternatively, use Aelia Advanced Analytics plugin, which supports both Google Analytics and StatCounter, and allows to exclude specific roles from the tracking.
