I have piwik to track my website visits. My website has a login page and I would like to do the analysis per userid, not necessarily per IP. Is there a way where piwik can store my user session variable in order me to know exactly which users used a determined page? Thanks in advance.

The way to do this is via custom variable.
Basic Code:
piwikTracker.setCustomVariable(1, "Member", "<?php echo $username;?>", "visit"); piwikTracker.trackPageView();
visit scope will last for the session

Instead of using a custom variable, you could use Piwik's built-in User ID feature, which also has the added benefit of allowing Piwik to more accurately track uniques.
