molo.usermetadata 1.0.4

User metadata to be used with Molo.

Provides code to help with User metadata in a project using the Molo code base.

Note

This library does not provide a Django user model, it provides a metadata model that can be attached to a user. Our experience is that custom User models in Django add all sorts of unpleasantries when using migrations.

Installation:

pip install molo.usermetadata

In your app settings:

INSTALLED_APPS = (
   'molo.usermetadata',
)

MIDDLEWARE = (
   'molo.usermetadata.middleware.PeronsaMiddleware'
)

In your app urls.py:

urlpatterns += patterns('',
     url(r'^meta/', include('molo.usermetadata.urls', namespace='molo.usermetadata', app_name='molo.usermetadata')),
)

Note:

In order for the personae to be activated, choose activate under wagtail settings > personae settings

Google Analytics

In order for GA to pick up persona data you need to add the following to your base.html

At the top of the template you need to load the persona tag:

{% load persona_tags %}

In your GTM block add the following to get the persona value:

{% persona_selected as persona_selected_value %}

In your <noscript> tag add the following to src in order to add the persona to the data layer when JS is not enabled:

{% if persona_selected_value%}&persona={{ persona_selected_value }}&event=persona{% endif %}

At the bottom of your tag manager block add the following in order to add the persona to the data layer when JS is enabled:

{% if persona_selected_value %}
  <script type="text/javascript">
    dataLayer.push({'persona': '{{ persona_selected_value }}', 'event': 'persona'});
  </script>
{% endif %}
