Adding Google Analytics
1 reply · Started by Conor on September 9, 2019
I was looking in the forum and I saw a lot of stuff about child theme and hooks and I didn't really know what they meant..
I know I have to copy the google analytics code to the header of my website, but I have also read that it can disapear whenever I update my site.. is there anyway to add google analytics and have it on the site without needing to update it?
cheers,
C
Hi there,
you can use the Hook Element:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/hooks-element-overview/
With the Elements module activated, Appearance > Elements > New Hook.
Add your GA Script to the Content.
Select the WP_Head hook from the Hooks List.
On Display Rules tab set to Entire site.
This won't be affected by updates to the theme.
