    We began messing around with Site Search a while back, but have had 0 success in getting data to display. We have messed around with our settings and searched our site in hopes of seeing results, however, we have not seen any.

    For a query "adidas" on our site, the URL will display as follows:
    http://www.gosave.com/searchresult/q=adidas&page=all&param=0&app=&order=

    On our analytics settings, we have the following:

    Do Track Site Search
    Query Parameter (required): q
    No, do not strip query parameters out of URL
    Do you use categories for site search? No.


    We have tried experimenting with our query parameters, the "Yes/No" do not strip query parameter, etc.

    Our website is www.gosave.com. Feel free to search on it to see if there is something wrong with our URL or tracking code on the search results page.

    We have been experimenting with this for nearly 2 months now to NO success. We feel as though we must be doing something wrong but we just can't figure out what. Any help would be appreciated.

    We have the new tracking code ga.js on the site.

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var gaJsHost = (("https:" == document.location.protocol) ? "https://ssl." : "http://www.");
    document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src='" + gaJsHost + "google-analytics.com/ga.js' type='text/javascript'%3E%3C/script%3E"));
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    try {
    var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-6313495-1");
    pageTracker._trackPageview();
    } catch(err) {}</script>

    We're still not receiving any info.

    make sure the site search is implemented correctly -- framed site search is usually best with it hosted on google's servers OR configure it correctly -- Then use the tracking code you already have. I believe it may be the coding of the site search script implemented. It seems as though there must be a line of code missing or something. Double check it, I looked at the site and that's all I can see. As for the tracking, I believe this may be the issue -- http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Analytics/thread?tid=5cb733b547685297&hl=en
