Activating Google Analytics

Tracking website traffic using Google Analytics is a great way to see who is coming to a website, how they are getting there, and what they are looking for. A Google account is required to set up Google Analytics.

Sign up for a Google Analytics Account. 

  1. Go to the Analytics sign up page to get started
  2. Click the "Sign Up" button.
  3. Add an Account Name and Website Name in the appropriate fields. 
  4. Add the Website Address.  Make sure the whole address appears, such as: http://www.foxbright.com
  5. Pick the correct time zone - this will help the reports be accurate.
  6. Click Get Tracking ID (Tag ID)
  7. Accept the terms of agreement.
  8. Copy the Tracking ID. It should look something like: G-0123456789
  9. A "Tracking code" is also provided. This code has already been put into the Foxbright CMS. The Tracking ID (Tag ID) is the only thing needed to be added to the CMS. 

Getting tracking activated in the CMS

  1. Log in to the CMS administration panel using a web administrator account.
  2. Click the Configuration menu and select Integration->Google Settings from the menu list.
  3. On the Enable Features tab, make sure Enable Analytics is set to Yes.
  4. Paste in the G-XXXXXXXXXX code in the  Measurement ID from Analytics field.
  5. Save your changes.
  6. All web pages will now be enabled on the website. New pages added will automatically be added to the analytics. Statistics may take a day or two to take effect.

LDAP Integration

Getting Started

Establishing a link between the Foxbright CMS and your LDAP server is an advanced configuration option that usually can be completed without help from us, but may require some assistance from our technicians to determine why the LDAP connection is not working.  The attached worksheet is provided so that you can get the information together that you need to configure LDAP in the Foxbright CMS Admin panel.

Configure Your Firewall

One of the most important things for you to do in preparation for the LDAP connection is to correctly prepare your firewall to allow us to connect with your LDAP server from outside of your LAN.  Contact Foxbright Support for your web servers IP address that we will be using to connect to your LDAP Server.  This IP address will need to be added to your firewall rules.

Configure & Test LDAP Settings

Login to the Foxbright CMS Admin Panel. Click on the Configuration drop list and select LDAP Settings.  From your worksheet, add your LDAP configuration settings to the form and Save. 

Re-select the LDAP Settings option from the Configuration drop list. In the upper right corner is a "Test Settings" option.  Select this option.  If everything works, you will receive a success message.  If it fails, make sure that the firewall is properly configured and check your LDAP settings.  If everything is appears to be correct, please contact Foxbright Support so that we can check the error logs to see what the problem is.  Once the test is successful, you can add a test LDAP user account to verify that the user can login to the Foxbright CMS using LDAP. If there are issues, please contact Foxbright Support.

Are you planning on importing your staff directory directly into the CMS?

Make sure that the usernames that you are importing match your LDAP directory, as that is how the CMS looks up each user account to validate the login.
