PIWIK Store visits per User ID as well as or instead of per IPs

Question

I have piwik to track my website visits. My website has a login page and I would like to do the analysis per userid, not necessarily per IP. Is there a way where piwik can store my user session variable in order me to know exactly which users used a determined page? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

The way to do this is via custom variable.

Basic Code:

piwikTracker.setCustomVariable(1, "Member", "<?php echo $username;?>", "visit"); piwikTracker.trackPageView();

visit scope will last for the session
