I have implemented Google Analytics in the footer of my Wordpress site. On my homepage, I have a section where I show several posts in a category. For some reason, when I log into my Google Analytics account and select in-page analytics, I cannot see any clicks on these posts.
I am sure that there should be some clicks on it. Is it possible that because these posts are coming from Wordpress custom fields, Google Analytics in-page analytics is not registering the clicks?
Thoughts?
the default in-page analytics can't see when one page element has multiple destinations or track buttons, menus, and actions driven by JavaScript.
