I'm using Google Analytics on a DokuWiki site, which uses a URL parameter to decide what to do with the current page:

/page

is equivalent to:

/page?do=show

1) I want to see some of these "modes", but mostly I'd like them counted as viewing the bare page URL itself. The following are the only ones I want to see separately:

/page?do=login
/page?do=backlinks
/page?do=revisions
/page?do=subscribe

How do I collapse the unwanted modes to the page itself (/page)?

2) Some modes do something that should really not have a page attached, such as:

/page1?do=sitemap
/page2?do=sitemap

How do I get these to show up without the page part (/?do=sitemap)?

3) What do I do with the search mode? Can I remove the page part from this too, and still find out which page people used the search function on?

/page?do=search&id=query+text
