On the Analytics Integration plugin subm-menu page, change the Google Analytics Pageview string
option to this format:
.. like so:
The value between the question mark "?" and the "=" is going to be the query variable, so in this case the "ajax_search" string.
You can replace the "ajax_search" variable name with anything you want, just make sure to remember it.
Log-in to your Google Analytics account, select the correct account, property and view.
On the Admin section, click on the View Settings Option:
Scroll down to the Site search Tracking option, and turn it on, and to the Query parameter option enter the "ajax_search" or the query variable you have choosen before:
Save the options, and it's done!
After a couple of hours the new search phrases should start to appear in the Site Search report.
