problems with setting up google analytics analytics.js to send events on page load

I'm trying to setup an analytics event that happens on page load which I am firing via window.onload if there is no other js on the page or via $(document).ready() if jQuery is loaded.

The analytics loads and works fine and is using analytics.js (not ga.js). When I try to send events back to analytics, I use this command

ga('send', 'event',    {'hitType': 'event',
                        'page': '/checkout/', 
                        'eventCategory': 'Forms',
                        'eventAction': 'formload',  
                        'eventLabel': 'Loaded checkout form correctly'});

When I look on the analytics dashboard it tells me that 2 of my visits sent events, but then all of the other events stats are 0. So in essence I am getting nothing logged.

Please help....

Your code is working fine for me. I assume by dashboard you are referring to the real-time one? If it's showing up in there fine, including the dimensions you are passing, then you are all good.

I'd say give it a couple of days, GA Universal processing is quite slow.
