We are unable to use the In-Page Analytics report in Google Analytics because our site now redirects to a URL which is different from what is in our Account setting. Are there any workarounds which will give us the In-Page Analytics and not impact our history data?

Short Answer is no. The answer provided by @zigojack will work.

Thing is, is it worth going through all the trouble? In-Page analytics is there for convenience and at times can be misleading.

You have a wealth of information inside your GA account so I would just use that.

All I can really suggest is duplicating the website at another location but minus the domain redirect so that you can use this to view past in-page analytics on the old website.


Purchase a new domain and set up the web hosting.
Duplicate the website on this new domain and database.
Make sure you NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW the duplicated website.
Stop the redirect on this duplicated website so it does not redirect to your other domain.
Password protect the domain with .htaccess. (Learn how here).
Create
Modify your GA property to track with the same UA on both domains. (Learn how here).


Come to think of it actually, I'm not even sure in-page analytics in GA will give you an option to show for different domains (even though GA supports cross-domain tracking). Hmm.
