Good News – it`s time to announce the release of Analytics feature on Ning 2.0 and 3.0 platforms.
Many of you have been looking forward to this update ever since we first mentioned it. Today we would like to thank you for your patience—and proudly bring them to you as promised. Our newly released Analytics feature is the easy-to-use tool for building an effective network. This tool will significantly enrich your network creation kit, and will considerably expand your community management possibilities.
The Analytics option allows you to monitor your network’s activity in dynamics, and get more information about your network by tracking various events: new posts, comments, page visits, likes, registrations, etc. This feature provides up-to-date information about user activities on the site, letting you understand how to attract them again. Analytics also helps to evaluate the success of your programs on social networks. This option generates useful content reports that help you understand which content is most effective and popular with users. Network analytics functionality is available for both Ning 3.0 and 2.0 platforms.

Is this only a link to Google Analytics?
Hi there!
It's not only the link to google analytics. as you may know in order to track something in google analytics (I mean not just visits most viewed pages etc.) the special tags should be sent to the application created in the google analytics, so that what exactly we have done, the number of tags sent has been increased and now you can track the number of new comments, registrations, likes etc. In the instruction, you may see the step by step guide how you can obtain this information from your google analytics in easy to view form.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Best regards,
Ning Team.
Where can I find the analytics feature?
It would be great for someone from Ning to provide a free webinar on getting the most from Google Analytics and the new features / data this provides. I've used GA embed code since the start of the community and have now replaced the GA tracking code in general settings and deleted the embed code. I've never really run reports before and despite having a play around using the images and guide below haven't got anywhere.
Kryryl - do you think this would be possible?
Hi there!
I have contacted the person who is working with GA in our company and unfortunately, he said that the webinar isn't possible:-(. However, he has had several minutes to create the video instruction how you can use the form that has been provided in help center to display the analytics for your network specifically (please note that you should have google analytics account already in order to proceed with the instructions from the video).
You can find the video by the following link https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_H-dtnomkv1cEhyVVJBQy1GODA/view?u.... As I have just uploaded it, it's available right now on in 360p as it takes some time for Google to render it, so I would suggest you to upload the file itself and play it with your browser.
Best regards,
Ning Team.
That was helpful thanks Kyryl - please pass on my thanks as well to whoever created the video :)
Hi Mike,
I'm glad that the video was helpful for you. Your thanks have been passed promptly to the person who has created the video as well, I think he will be pleased :-)
Regards,
Ning Team.
Just curious - do many other people here still wish for the member chat to change?
Ning - is there any update on any changes for it coming soon? My website members have basically stopped using the chat since its recent upgrade. Where as when you had the earlier simpler version - lots of people were using it. I wish we could just go back to the simple version of the chat you had before.
Thoughts?
Hi there!
The suggestion regarding the ability to get back to the old chat version has been already created and passed to the management.
At this moment they are creating the plan for the next quarter, and when it will be ready you will see it here in announcement area on creators.
Please stay tuned in order not to miss it.
Best regards,
Ning Team.
Hi there, a bit separate from this update but still very relevant and I hope posting here gets some response. I am still having the error in which facebook is not fetching the previews for new links properly. This is a huge inconvenience for my project and upcoming broadcasts I am organizing. Is there any update on this being fixed or any solution in sight? It seemed like it was momentarily fixed a few days ago but then went back to being broken.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Screen shot of what I am referring to.
Thanks.
