I have the core profile module enabled but am also using node profile and role signup. I want to be able to track usernames. On the google analytics module settings page, under the heading "User segmentation settings" I only have the option to track post count or user role. Can anyone suggest how I can get the option to track usernames?
Thanks

hass CreditAttribution: hass commentedHave you read the description below these GA setting?
You are not allowed to track usernames as they are used to identify a personal user! This is not allowed by Google's TOS and also not allowed in many many if not all countries of this world.

Yes I read the discussion about this and take your point.
It's just that the project description page suggests this feature is available so I thought it should be appearing on my settings.
The rest of my profile data is collected using node profile module. Is there any way of tracking this data via the GA module?

hass CreditAttribution: hass commentednodeprofile and content_profile does not support GA (not the other way around). There was an case, but I cannot find it and the nodeprofile maintainer haven't helped to implement it.
You might have read the wrong text:

For the record, this is the text I read, which is on the project page.
"For every page hit that is logged by Google, you can also attach the user identifier, username, user roles to it. This can provide a good overview of what type of users visit what pages on your site."
Perhaps it should be modified, if this isn't the case.
