It’d be very nice. Anyway, I think you should mention using synchronous VWO snippet for Google Analytics integration in this post. It can save time of other people who can step on the same rake

@Vasil: yes, we do have plans to make GA async work with GA script.

This is great feature!
But looks like it doesn’t work with async VWO code. In async VWO snippet, the javascript contanining the “_vis_opt_GA_track()” is loaded AFTER Google Analytics sends a beacon. So the code that should set GA custom variable is skipped. As a result, we don’t have integration.
The solution is using synchronous snippet, but I still hope this can be resolved somehow (e.g. by ordering calls to VWO and GA scripts).

Am I reading this correctly? I have a multiple URL based tests running on my site for a template test across course pages.

I also have a goal page tracking in the test. The goal is picked up by VWO, but I’m not seeing the goal tracking in GA. Is this because I have 29 individual tests for the course template split test and GA will only show the goal results if there is one test running?

The plugin is working for other queries. All 29 tests are on Custom Var 4.

@Zorg: yes, we are planning to update the snippet to allow for multiple tests.

Is it in the near future going to be possible to run multiple tests at the same time?
