I’ve tried to add in // Track page views api.onPageChange((url, title) => { if (_paq) { try { var currentUser = PreloadStore.get('currentUser'); _paq.push(['setCustomVariable', 3, 'Forum status', !currentUser ? 'Anonymous' : 'LoggedIn user', 'visit']); } catch(e) {} _paq.push(["setCustomUrl", url]); _paq.push(["setDocumentTitle", title]); _paq.push(["trackPageView"]); } }); then in var _paq = window._paq = window._paq || []; /* tracker methods like "setCustomDimension" should be called before "trackPageView" */ _paq.push(['trackPageView']); _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']); (function() { var u="https://stats.xxxxxxx.xxx/"; _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'matomo.php']); _paq.push(['setSiteId', '8']); var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.src=u+'matomo.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s); })(); And all I get is html source of the page is the html comments. tags seam to have been removed. Is there a security setting to be activated as to allow scripts in those areas? [...] Thanks for your help

Thanks you, that should solve my current problem… But shouldn’t it be possible to inject custom js in those sections anyhow ?

I’ve installed the component and activated it for “Default” theme … and doesn’t seem to work any better :-/

Did you check your browser logs? Have you added your Matomo script host to the CSP setting list?

You got it right… I was not aware of a CSP setting…

That is something the browser logs will always warn about, so always check those.

Hi @Falco I think I’ve got the same problem with Matomo not working with Discourse. It is what the support team of Matomo told me when I opened a ticket on their github : Matomo support : “I checked your website and the configured CSP is preventing to load our tracker. You’ll want to have a look at Is the Matomo JavaScript Tracker CSP (Content Security Policy) compatible and how do I set it up? FAQ - Analytics Platform - Matomo and check how this can be configured in your server environment.” I went to my Discourse logs (URL/logs) and couldn’t find anything related. My discourse is on this URL : https://hec.fm And my Matomo instance on : https://stats.hec.fm And I thought I already changed the CSP in the settings to make it work but still not working : [CSP not working Matomo] I thought I followed thoroughly the tutorial Script to enable Matomo analytics on Discourse but seems not enough. What did I do wrong ? :slightly_smiling_face:

I see the Matomo script loading correctly on hec.fm, so you’re not having a CSP issue. Maybe it’s something else on the Matomo side? Also the rows below https://stats.hec.fm/Matomo in your screenshot above are unnecessary.
