Google Analytics for WordPress and Shopp eCommerce plugins

I noticed that Google Analytics for WordPress has Shopp eCommerce plugin support that enables conversion tracking, but it doesn’t work on Shopp v1.2.9, the version I have.

I have a fix for this problem – I applied this fix and it works on my site.

You need to change the two lines in the Google Analytics for WordPress plugin file frontend/class-frontend.php function shopp_transaction_tracking that read:

if ( function_exists( 'is_shopp_page' ) && !is_shopp_page( 'checkout' ) ) return $push;

to this:

if ( function_exists( 'is_thanks_page' ) && !is_thanks_page() ) return $push;

I submitted this to the plugin author, Joost van de Valk via Yoast.com but he hasn’t gotten back to me, so I’m posting this in case it helps someone else.
