Hello,
Since I have starting using the SEO friendly store front in Miva and have started having issues with Google Analytics.
First I tell everyone what I have done with all of my Miva pages. Instead of using the pages with all of the Miva code in them (example: the storefront, the category pages, and product pages. ) I just cut the few lines of Miva code that did what I needed.
For my store front I just cut and pasted all the HTML that was used in my index.html file, before using the store front, and pasted it in the Miva storefront template leave nothing that was there before.
For the category page template I used all the same HTML that I used for my store front except removed everything in the content part of the page and replaced it with this:
<mvt:item name="fonts" param="hdr_font">
<b>&mvte:category:name;</b>
</mvt:item>
<mvt:item name="product_list" />
This called all the products and put them where I needed them. I also did this for my individual products. I don't know if this is the proper way to do it but it works.
However after doing all of this I noticed my Analytics started to count backwards and had much less activity.
Does anyone have any idea how to make this work with Google Analytics or if I should even be doing my pages like this. I really need my analytics to work, everyone knows how important tracking your traffic is.
I really need some help with this so any advise at all is greatly appreciated.
here is my main page: www.protection-direct.com (http://www.protection-direct.com)
here is an example of one of my category pages:

Of course you can view the source to see what I am talking about.
Thanks to everyone in advance,
