[Resolved] Google Analytics Not Tracking

[Sandee]

Hello,

I’m using Google Site Tag to add analytics to my website. I have added it to the wp_head section via the Elements module, and the website activity is not being tracked.

I tried to refer to this post https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/no-data-being-sent-to-google-analytics/, but there was no response to further action.

Here’s the code I added. Can you advise on what I need to do to get the tracking to work?

<!– Global site tag (gtag.js) – Google Analytics –>

<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-XXXXXXXX-X"></script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X');
</script>

Hi there,

Can you make sure everything is done correctly according to the instructions here?
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/implement-google-tag-manager/#using-hooks-element

Let me know 🙂

Yes, I followed those steps and no sunshine. I’m not sure what the issue is, but I would love some help in getting this fixed.

Thank you!

Just to confirm, you’ve added both blocks of code?

If so it should work. Maybe give it some time.
