• How to configure and validate a Funnel in Piwik Analytics

  16 janvier 2017, par InnoCraft — Community

  In the last blog post we have covered how the conversion Funnel plugin enriches your Piwik experience. This post will focus on how to configure and validate your funnel in Piwik so you get the correct data when you view the funnel reports. When you set up a funnel, it is crucial to have it configured correctly as the funnel report will be only as good as its configuration. When we built this Funnel feature, we focused on making the configuration and validation real simple because it is so important to get it right.

  To recap quickly : A Funnel defines a series of steps that you expect your visitors to take on their way to converting a goal or a sale. Funnels, a premium feature for Piwik developed by InnoCraft, lets you define funnels so you can improve your websites and mobile apps based on this data. Learn more about Funnel.

  Configuring a funnel

  As you will notice Funnels integrates nicely into the Piwik Goals management. You can configure a funnel whenever you create or update a goal. You can access the Goals Management either via “Administration => Goals” or via the reporting menu “Goals => Manage”. Then click on either “Add a new goal” or select an existing goal to edit it. At the bottom of the goal form, you will see a new row letting you configure a funnel. As with all our premium features we focused on displaying lots of inline help and explain directly in the UI what a funnel is about, what the steps are in order to configure a funnel, how a funnel helps you and more. This lets you use the Funnel feature even if you have never created or analyzed a funnel before.

  Preparing your Funnel configuration

  Before starting to configure a Funnel we usually have a brainstorm session identifying the funnels on a website or app and the paths we expect users to take there. Once we have identified each step, we click through those identified pages in our website and we note the URLs for each page as the URLs will be needed when you configure a funnel.

  Setting up a Goal

  Once we have finished the planning phase it is time to log into Piwik. We start by either adding a new goal or selecting an existing goal. If you are unfamiliar with setting up goals, have a look at the Piwik Goals user guide. At the bottom of a goal form when you create or update a goal, you can configure your funnel. The UI will first explain you everything about Funnels, what they are, how they help you and which steps you need to take in order to configure it.

  Configuring Funnel steps

  We start by configuring the steps we have identified in the planning phase. Those are the steps we expect our users to take when they convert a goal or purchase something. Now we need to add a step for each page we expect users to take, each step consists of a name and a pattern.

  The name will be shown to you in the funnel reporting so think of a good name that describes each step best, for example “Product”, “Cart”, “Checkout” and “Order”.

  The pattern is needed to define when a visitor will enter this step. Here it comes in handy to have already notes for each URL from the planning phase. You can select lots of different patterns based on “URL Path”, “URL” and “URL parameter”. For example “URL starts with”, “Path ends with”, “URL contains”, “URL matches the regular expression”, and more. Most tools make this configuration unnecessarily hard because they only allow you to choose from one or two patterns (only complicated pattern like regular expressions) and they don’t let you validate whether the URL you have in mind actually matches the pattern. There are three ways to validate your step configurations.

  

  Validating funnel steps

  When we configure a funnel, we validate our steps in the following three ways.

  1. Via the help icon next to the step configuration

  When you click on the help icon, you will receive valuable tips about configuring steps, what “required” means and how to match popular pages. It will also show you a list of all URLs that were tracked in your Piwik in the past and match your specified pattern. For example say you specify a pattern “Path starts with /products”, then Piwik will list all URLs that were tracked in the past matching this pattern. This lets you validate whether your pattern actually matches the URLs you had in mind. It will also show you if the pattern doesn’t match any known URL which can indicate that your configuration may be wrong.

  

  2. Via the URL validator

  Below the steps configuration you find a form field that lets you enter any URL.

  

  We recommend to enter each URL that you have noted before in the planning phase. Once you enter a URL, the configurations will be validated immediately and the result will be shown to you in the step configuration. When a step matches your specified URL, the background will become green, when a step does not match the URL, the background will be red.

  

  If the URL does not match the expected step, simply change your step configuration and the steps will be re-validated as you change the configuration. This way you will see instantly as soon as you got the configuration right.

  What you don’t want is that either all of your steps don’t match (red background) or that several steps match a certain URL (green background). When several step match one URL, then one visitor might enter several funnel steps on just one page. This usually indicates a problem with the step configuration.

  3. Manual funnel validation

  After we have created or updated the goal (more about this soon), we always test a funnel configuration manually. This means we now open our website and click through the pages that we hand in mind and check afterwards whether the steps we took actually appear in the funnel report as expected. This is just another safety net to make sure your funnel configuration is right.

  It is really crucial to have a correct funnel configuration as otherwise the shown data in the funnel reports might not be as helpful. That’s why we focused so much on making the validation part real easy.

  Activating and saving the funnel

  Once you are happy with your configuration, it is time to activate your funnel. As soon as you activate your funnel, a report for this funnel will be generated and the links and reports for this funnel will be visible in the UI. If you are later no longer interested in the funnel, simply deactivate the funnel so it won’t appear in the reporting UI anymore.

  

  To save your funnel configuration simply click on either “Add goal” or “Update goal”. The funnel will be automatically saved whenever you update your goal.

  Goals Management

  The funnel plugin also enriches the list of goals in the Piwik goal management. At a glance you can see whether a funnel for a goal is configured and activated (green tick in the funnel column), whether a funnel is configured but not activated (grey tick in the funnel column) or whether no funnel is configured for a goal (no tick at all).

  

  How to get Funnels and related features

  You can get Funnels on the Piwik Marketplace. If you want to learn more about Funnels you might be also interested in the Funnel User Guide and the Funnel FAQ.

  Similar to Funnels we also offer Users Flow which lets you visualize the flow of your users and visitors across several interactions.

• Piwik 3 Development Update #1 – New UI design, API changes & release date

  1er septembre 2016, par Thomas Steur — Community, Development

  Over the last months, we have been actively working on the Piwik 3 release and we want to introduce you to the changes that we have done so far. They include a new and modern UI redesign, new widgets for your dashboard, and technical improvements under the hood.

  New Piwik 3 UI

  Based on Material Design we have revamped the user interface which is now more responsive, more usable and faster. While the UI is not yet finished, we invite you to check it out already and to let us know what you think.

  

  This new Piwik material design is a visual language that synthesizes classic principles of good design with the innovation and possibility of technology and science.

  More responsive

  Piwik 3 will look and feel much better on your mobile phone and tablet. Many elements have been improved : the menus, the segment editor and dashboard selector, the widgets, the settings pages and most other pages so you can fully experience and enjoy Piwik on any device !

  

  Improved usability

  We have updated the menu structure, the dashboard selector as well as the footer in reports to make your life easier when using Piwik. We love to keep these complicated things simple. There are also many other tiny improvements that you will appreciate.

  

  The Zen Mode lets you view in full screen your analytics reports and dashboards. Users love this feature and it can now be accessed by pressing “z” key.

  

  Faster

  To make the Piwik interface faster, we have refactored most of our CSS, HTML and JavaScript and moved more and more of our code into the client. As a result, Piwik now needs to reload the page much less often ! For example when you change the date or change the segment, Piwik will now load the reports instantly. To improve performance even further, Piwik will now load multiple reports on a single page in parallel.

  Native fonts

  Over the last months more and more web services have started using system fonts, and so will Piwik 3. System fonts look better, improve language support and give you a more native, familiar feeling.

  For more details and screenshots have a look at the pull request for the Piwik 3 UI update.

  New widgets

  With the “Latest Piwik Plugin Updates” widget you won’t miss any newly added or updated plugin anymore. This will help you learn about and discover the useful plugins and themes available on the Marketplace.

  

  Super users can now see at a glance the current state of the Piwik system, thanks to the new “System Check” and “System Summary” widgets.

  

  API Changes

  Piwik is the leading open analytics platform, highly customisable and extensible thanks to a flexible plugins architecture and a design based on APIs. In this new major Piwik 3 release, we significantly improve the foundation of our open platform and several of its core APIs.

  The new Widgets and Reporting API makes it possible to add reports and widgets to any existing reporting page. In the past, reporting pages had to be created manually which was time consuming and it was hard to maintain a consistent look across different reporting pages. Now reporting pages are generated automatically by the Piwik platform.

  The Plugin Settings API was changed to improve performance and to let plugin developers customize the Websites Manager. This is one step towards our goal to let users not only manage websites but also mobile apps, cars, coffee machines or any other thing.

  To see a full list of changes in the Piwik 3 analytics platform, have a look at the developer changelog.

  Developer docs

  The Piwik Developer Zone is full of guides and API references to help developers understand, integrate and extend Piwik. As some APIs have changed in the Piwik 3 release it is now possible to select the Piwik version in the top right corner of the developer zone.

  

  We are updating guides for Piwik 3 and added a Piwik 2 -> Piwik 3 Migration Guide for plugin developers. Many other guides were updated such as Menus, Custom Report and Widgets.

  Release date

  The first Piwik 3 beta release will be available in the next four weeks. Beta testers automatically receive the update if they are subscribed to the “Latest Beta” release channel. The final Piwik 3 release will be ready before the end of the year. If you want to give it a try, you can either use Piwik from Git and check out the “3.x-dev” branch, or download Piwik 3 from GitHub.

  Closing thoughts

  With faster & more beautiful reports, better APIs and more stability, Piwik 3 is a big step forward for all Piwik users. As our mission is to create, as a community, the leading international open source web analytics platform that gives every user full control of their data, we are very excited to introduce you to this upcoming release.

  We now offer Custom Development services if you like to sponsor a new feature or bug fix, or if you have any custom requirements. And if you use Piwik Analytics to grow your business and need quality help, contact the Piwik analytics experts to get started.

  Until our next Piwik 3 dev update, Happy analysis !
