An Analytics widget is also available for your dashboard so that you can quickly see views or users for your site at a glance. If you manage multiple sites, you can add additional widgets for each site.

  • Open Your Report

    1. Select your site.

    2. From the System Menu in the upper right corner of your screen, select Reports.

    3. From the Reports page, select Google Analytics Statistics.

  • Navigating Your Report

    Your report will default to showing you the most viewed pages on your site. Clicking on a page in the URL column will open that page on the live site in a new tab. Clicking on a page in the Asset column will open that page within Cascade so that you can edit it. You can sort any column alpha-numerically by clicking on the arrow to the right of the column header.

    Your report can also be viewed by Highest Engagement Rate. This sorts pages by engagement rate, which represents the percentage of engaged sessions on your site. Pages with high engagement indicate that people are spending more time on your site.

    There is also Search functionality built into the report, which can help you quickly find a page or folder within your site and see how it is performing. If you are having trouble finding a page, be sure to enter the page name as it appears in the URL or the Asset Tree.
