Hi Justin, can you please provide version of this code for asynchronous version of GA? By the way, bought your book ‘Google Analytics’. Very, very good. Use it all the time as an reference book. Unfortunately this bit is missing there as well.

I thing that Required Step setting in the funnel excludes visits only from funnel visualization. Conversion will be counted even if a first step is required and custommer doesn’t visit first step page.

Great post, thanks!

Vicki,

If you’re getting pageviews for the virtual pageviews then I bet your problem is with the Required Step setting in the funnel. This setting will force GA to only track data in the funnel report IF the visitor hits the first page in the funnel setup. My guess is that the virtual pageview for the first step of the funnel may be wrong and specified as a required step.

Hope that helps,

Justin

I am encountering technical problems with the goal funnel visualization in GA. I set up all the goals based on virtual page view URLs in GA a month a go. Since then we are able to see the total CVR for each metric we have set up to track however the goal funnel visualization is not matching up to the totals and in some cases contains no data at all. I realise its very hard to assess without seeing the problem. Please could you send me an area where I can upload some screen grabs or alternatively I can send a temporary login to the account to see for yourself. I would appreciate any help from anyone who is experienced with Goal reporting in GA. Thanks Vicki
