Analytics Admin Column Not Displaying for Custom Post Type

    Thanks for creating such a useful, wonderful plugin!

    I am having a problem getting the Analytics admin column to display on my custom post type. It displays without a problem on Pages and Posts, but WILL NOT display for the custom post type I created (through the Types plugin).

    I tried to manually add the menu through the Admin Columns plugin, and Analytics appears as a default column, but when it is selected, it refuses to add (and after a few tries it disappears from the drop-down menu altogether). This particular plugin aside, though, the underlying issue is that analytics just doesn’t want to appear through a custom post type.

    Would really appreciate help on this as I will have multiple users using the custom post type and they wish to have access to their analytics there.

    Thank you.

  • It does work on custom posts and pages, check Screen Options (top-right corner of your screen) and make sure the Analytics column is not unchecked there.

    I’ve also tested it with the mentioned plugin, and the Analytics column is there and works as expected, see: https://cldup.com/2wJSbnIwiK.png

    Thank you so much for taking the time to test this, Alin. Though it wasn’t a ‘screen options’ issue, you actually testing this and showing that it works lead me to figuring out the problem.

    It seemed to be just a refreshing issue with Admin Columns. I had a custom configuration with admin columns and, as I said, whenever I would click ‘analytics’ it would just refuse to the column until the column simply disappeared from the dropfown menu as a choice (very strange). I just set the columns back to default and viola, suddenly analytics appeared. Not really sure what the issue actually was, but I hope someone can find this inquiry if they have the same issue in the future.

    Thanks again!
