Make it possible to track views in GA on a per-forum basis

I would like to track views in Google Analytics on a per-forum and/or per-category basis. For example, with a setup like this:

Flintstones (category)

  • Fred
  • Barney
  • Wilma

Jetsons (category)

  • George
  • Jane
  • Judy

I would like to track activity separately at least for Flintstones and Jetsons -- as well as for Fred, Barney, etc.

It isn't working in GA because of how topics are named. In GA, I can track views on the forum listings because I can drill down using the forum name, such as:

myforum.org/forum/1-fred/
myforum.org/forum/2-barney/
etc.

Then I can add these up to see how many views are in the respective categories.

But, when you get to topics, the forum name is no longer included. For example:

myforum.org/topic/500-cave-dwelling/

If I could get the forum name into the topic URL, then I could track it in GA. For example:

myforum.org/1-fred/topic/500-cave-dwelling/
or
myforum.org/1-fred/500-cave-dwelling/

There is currently no way to put the forum name into the URL.
