I need to add 'Google experiments' code to the head section of my website. I understand the best way to do this is using hooks, however I don't have any experience with creating new hooks.
Has anyone done this, and could you provide a step by step guide on how to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Jkendall,
Thank you for your message.
As far as I understand, you want to add sales tracking code to your store. In this case you can use instructions from the Knowledge base article:
http://kb.cs-cart.co…g-code-addition
However, if you wish this code to appear on each page of your store, you can use the same instructions, however the path should be the following:
skins/[CUSTOMER_ACTIVE_SKIN]/customer/addons/my_changes/hooks/index
and the file should be named as scripts.post.tpl.
Please check it.
Thank you.

Pavel,
He is looking for A/B testing, not Analytics Tracking.
A/B testing requires much more support from the underlying cart than is provided by default.
Thanks guys - but yes the code is for A/B split testing.
I'm just testing two variations of the homepage at the momet - I've actually managed to get the code to work by creating an HTML block on the top of the homepage. Possibly not the most fail-proof method but seems to be working ok at the moment.
If anyone has any other methods of a/b or multivariate testing in CS-Cart I'd be keen to hear more.
