Google Analytics on Refined Wiki Mobile Theme

Tracking mobile users on Confluence while using Refinedwiki mobile theme is not possible or straightforward using theme configuration. I found a work around that will track users on Google Analytics smoothly. Please follow the below steps:


  1. Create a js file, call is analytics.js with the analytics script code, it should look something similar to the below:
      (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
      (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
      m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
      })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');
      ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXX', 'auto');
      ga('set', 'userId',AJS.Data.get("remote-user")); // Set the user ID using signed-in user_id. 
      ga('send', 'pageview');
  2. Save your script on confluence server confluenceInstallationDirectory/confluence/ OR install it on any other location that can be access via http or https
  3. Go to confluence administration and click on User Macros on the left menu.
  4. Click on Create a User Macro
  5. Now set up per the below photos:
     
  6.  Save and go to refind wiki mobile theme and click on Macro Render Rules, then click Add Macro Render Rule. On choose macro select Mobile Tracking. Click Save.
  7. Now go to refind wiki mobile theme configuration, in the footer add the wiki code: {mobiletracking} then save.
Now you will be able to track mobile users on your confluence using google analytics. This was tested on confluence 6.12

The Semantic Web

Semantic Web aims to create a meaning and define inter-relationship for information available on the web In the early stages of the World Wide Web (web) it was necessary to develop standards to view web content (HTML language) and to create communication channels (N-Tier applications, email, ftp, etc.). As the web started to be the world’s largest knowledge base, accessible world wide, it became important to develop tools to transfer knowledge between cultures. However, it is still not possible for applications and agents to interoperate with other applications and agents without having a predefined, human created common framework of the meaning of the information being transferred on both sides. Semantic Web (SW) alleviates this problem by providing a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries [W3C Semantic Web, 2019]. A clear example on SW application is schema.org. Google, Bing, Yahoo use schema

Arabs In London

I was not able to watch Arabs in London episodes during the last holy month of Ramadan. I watched it recently on MBC. I was really impressed by the performance of some actors and actresses. The most impressive one was Mais Hamdan who was able to present the Palestinian accent efficiently. This TV series was written and directed by Anwar Qawadri a Syrian director who studied and lived in London. The below video is about 8 minutes show when Sami finds out that his friend Eddy (Adnan) passed away.
