Name 

Description 

 

GetSessionRank 

Gets the Session rank of the visiting user. A session rank of 0 is the first page a new user has visited. A session rank of 1 is the first page a returning user has visited. A session rank of 2 is any other page.  

 

HardDumpAnalyticsBuffer 

Forces the analytics buffer to write to the database. This surpasses the checks to see if the time before write or number of records have passed.  

 

QueryAnalytics 

Provides a simple way of querying the database for analytics data. Returns the result as a weakly typed DataSet. Note that the connection is to the Analytics database and not to the standard CMS database.  

 

SoftDumpAnalyticsBuffer 

Conditionally writes the analytics buffer in memory to write to the database. If the time before write or number of records before write conditions have been met or exceeded, this function will force the write to the database.  

 

TrackVisit 

This is the overview for the TrackVisit method overload.

Description 

 

AnalyticsEnabled 

Indicates if Analytics has been enabled through a setting in the web.config file. If disabled, no analytics tracking will be done. If this property is set to true, tracking on the control level can still be disabled through the "EnableAnalytics" property in the AnalyticsTracker server control.  

 

AppendToIISLog 

Indicates whether or not the web.config has been set to append user_id and content_id information to the IIS log.  

 

InMemoryContentHitsData 

The dataset that stores all the page/content view information in memory until it reaches its record or time threshold and writes back to the database. This is a strongly typed dataset of type 'ContentHitsData'. The underlying static member is initialized on demand.  

 

RecordsBeforeWrite 

Indicates the number of records to hold in the static memory buffer before writing to the database. This is used mainly to smooth out the number of writes to the database. This value and the 'TimeBeforeWrite' property are evaluated and, if any value has been exceeded, the buffered data will be written to the database.  

 

TimeBeforeWrite 

Indicates the number of seconds before writing the in-memory buffer of records to the database. This is used mainly to smooth out the number of writes to the database. This value and the 'RecordsBeforeWrite' property are evaluated and, if any value has been exceeded, the buffered data will be written to the database.
