    Open your includes/view-functions.php file.

    Inside display_form() function, around line 1827-1833 you'll find this:

    <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>{$form->name}</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="{$css_dir}view.css" media="all" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/view.js"></script>
{$calendar_js}
</head>


    Simply insert your tracking code between those head tags.

    Hi,
    Google seem to want their analytics code placed just before the body close tag (though I guess it make no difference really), so you could place the tracking code between lines 1854 and 1855 of includes/view-functions.php if you wish.

    Hi, Thanks for the quick response.

    Question: how will this code know which form to to track. I have 20 forms and only 1 needs this code?

    Yes, this code will track all your forms. Each of them with its own id number.

    Hello! I was hoping to confirm the set up of Google Analytics in 3.5. I found the includes/view-functions.php file, and in the code, 4 instances of the <head> tag. Should I add the path to my GA code in each instance? ie, <script type="text/javascript" src="../js/google-analytics.js"></script>?

    Thanks! Amy

    Yes, you should add the path to all head instances.
