[Plugin: Google Analytics for WordPress] Rendering bug?

  • Hi,

    I have a fairly markup-heavy page on my WordPress site which seems to end up in a mess once Google Analytics for WordPress has had it’s way with the links. The page is at https://www.ride-earth.org.uk/podcast/. It seems to be failing to close the iTunes onclick link properly and then repeating several lines of the original code again.

    BEFORE:

    <div style="background-color:#CCE6C8;clear:both;border-bottom:2px solid #fff;text-align:center;margin:0 30px;padding:3px 10px">

<a href="/podcast/episode-four-switzerland-to-austria/">Watch the previous episode</a>
 | next episode coming soon
 | <a title="Add the Ride-Earth podcast to your iTunes" href="https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260068214">subscribe with iTunes</a>
 | <a title="Download this episode directly from Ride-Earth.org.uk" href="https://ride-earth.stringfilms.tv/episode5.mov">download directly</a>
 | or add <a href="https://podcast.ride-earth.org.uk/podcast.xml">the feed</a> to your favourite podcast software

</div>

    AFTER:

    <div style="background-color:#CCE6C8;clear:both;border-bottom:2px solid #fff;text-align:center;margin:0 30px;padding:3px 10px">

<a href="/podcast/episode-four-switzerland-to-austria/">Watch the previous episode</a>
 | next episode coming soon
 | <a title="Add the Ride-Earth podcast to your iTunes" href="https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260068214" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article//podcast/episode-four-switzerland-to-austria/">Watch the previous episode</a>
 | next episode coming soon
 | <a title="Add the Ride-Earth podcast to your iTunes" href="https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260068214');">subscribe with iTunes</a>
 | <a title="Download this episode directly from Ride-Earth.org.uk" href="https://ride-earth.stringfilms.tv/episode5.mov" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/https://ride-earth.stringfilms.tv/episode5.mov');">download directly</a>
 | or add <a href="https://podcast.ride-earth.org.uk/podcast.xml" >the feed</a> to your favourite podcast software

</div>

    The result is that the first two links are rendered twice, and that one of them is invalid javascript.

    Any ideas – it’s a strange one…

    Looking at it again, this entire stretch of code is being put in a single javascript function argument by the plugin (look at where the (‘ and ‘) occur). Browser is rendering the argument as HTML:

    onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article//podcast/episode-four-switzerland-to-austria/">Watch the previous episode</a> | next episode coming soon | <a title="Add the Ride-Earth podcast to your iTunes" href="https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260068214');"
