    Here is the simplest way to add Google or any other analytics/tracking code to this template although there are plugins available on the JED that will aslo do the job if you do not like playing with the code.

    Copy the file plugins>system>jat3>jat3>base-themes>default>page>default.php into templates>ja_your-template-name>page>default.php and insert your analytics code just before the </head> tag as per below.

    <head>
    <?php //gen head base on theme info
    $this->showBlock ('head');
    ?>
    <?php
    $blocks = T3Common::node_children($this->getBlocksXML ('head'), 'block');
    foreach ($blocks as $block) :
    $this->showBlock ($block);
    endforeach;
    ?>

    <?php echo $this->showBlock ('css') ?>
    ************YOUR ANALYTICS CODE HERE*************
    </head>

    the page folder is not present in my template folder…Do I need to create it and place the default.php file in there?

    Please re-read what I wrote above. It tells you to copy the folder from the plugin folder into your template folder.

    <blockquote>Copy the file plugins>system>jat3>jat3>base-themes>default>page>default.php into templates>ja_your-template-name>page>default.php and insert your analytics code just before the </head> tag as per below.

    Do I need all the contents of that folder? I just made a page folder under my templates, I placed the default.php in there and it seems to be working, Just want to be sure I am doing this correctly.

    That is fine. The new page/default.php simply overrides the one in the plugin folder.
