Track hotarucms.org sub-domains properly with Google analytics.

From what I see in the analytics page, the Hotarucms.org is getting many hits from its sub-domains (namely forums, docs etc...)
We should make this proper and be able to filter them out, in etc.

Here are some nice resources:

I've added the Google Analytics code to the HEAD of the docs, updated the code in the main site, and it was already in the forums.

The code is for "One domain with multiple subdomains".

I've applied two filters:

1. Exclude all IPs thatmatch 127.0.0.1
2. Exclude all referrals that include hotarucms.org (seems a bit extreme to me, but isn't that what you asked for? )

I think that would do the trick, have you read on tracking sub-domains on the analytics help articles?
We will be able to close this issue later when the analytics gets in some data that corresponds to the wanted behavior.
