I would like to know if Google Analytics automatically keeps track of the pages that have their state retained using the ajax history token ('#'), developed for example with GWT. My app has a single html page and different modules (pages) have the same URL, except that part that comes after # (ex. www.mysite.com?test=true#page=Contacts/id=1).
Also, if this mentioned behavior is not by default, is there a way to set up the Google Analyics to have this functionality ?
EDIT:
I found this article which explains how #hashtag can be tracked: http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/how-to-track-clicks-on-anchors-in-google-analytics.html
But, if i use this solution, will the page access be recorded when a user presses an Anchor with href'#hastag' or only when a a page is accessed directly with that hashtag (in that case, I should register a function that calls trackPageview when history changes)?
I added the following lines to the initial analytics script:
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', location.pathname + location.search + location.hash]);
and
window.onhashchange = function(){
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview',location.pathname + location.search + location.hash]);
}
which tracks the history change.
