warning: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/Denver' for 'MDT/-6.0/DST' instead in /home/anilsag5/public_html/modules/comment/comment.module on line 1514.

Isn't it really silly and lame that we need a module to add simple Google analytics javascript code? This only goes to show the weakness of Drupal.

It Depends

Dear User,

It depends on requirement. In Drupal features are available as modules. Modules are optimized and tested by the community.

Google Analytics modules provides below functionality apart from just tracking code to the site.

Single/multi/cross domain tracking
Selectively track/exclude certain users, roles and pages
Monitor what type of links are tracked (downloads, outgoing and mailto)
Monitor what files are downloaded from your pages
Custom variables support with tokens
Custom code snippets
Site Search support
AdSense support
Tracking of Goals
Anonymize visitors IP address
Cache the Google Analytics code on your local server for improved page loading times
Access denied (403) and Page not found (404) tracking
DoNotTrack support (non-cached content only)

Drupal is not weak. Drupal is so powerful and flexible. You can add google analytics code with out a module also. Just insert the script code in page.tpl.php

Hope you will change your view on Drupal.

Cheers,
Anil Sagar
