Hello,

does this plugin works with Google Analytics 4? I can see the total number of events on GA4 (that is the number of people that submitted an inquiry), but I can’t see anymore the overview that shows the number of inquiries per URL or per contact form.

Thank you in advance for your reply

Hi

In classic Google Analytics, the names of the various contact forms (CF7) on my website were displayed as individual event labels. In GA4, I now only see one event called contact_form_7, which contains all the contact forms – but I can’t see the individual contact forms and their names.

Is there a way to see all the individual contact forms with their names in GA4 again, like before in classic Analytics?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Andrew,
could it be that your plugin is not yet compatible with GA Google Analytics from Jeff Starr? I cannot find any other reason besides this as I get full GA statistics but see no events from your Plugin being shown in GA.

Cheers and hoping you can help.

I didn’t see any events reported not under real-time nor under the regular events report page. I submitted the form twice myself, can you check if my site is sending the data to GA properly?

Thank you.

Hi Andrew,
just noticed that Wordfence is flagging your plugin as possible risk due to it’s inactivity.

Could you please adjust the settings “Tested up to:” to a more recent version like 5.8.1?

Thx in advance,
Ralf

Hi,

I was just curious if you had plans to update the plugin to also send events for Google Analytics v4?

Thanks!

Hi
In general – without trying to catch you out or refer back to you – in the uk would one need to add a cookie policy and or opt out, or a privacy statement on a web site where Contact form 7 google analytics was implemented under GDPR rules ?

I believe you probably would. Maybe you know a way to avoid its necessity.

Thank you

Is version 1.8.7 of Contact Form 7 Google Analytics compatible with PHP 7.4?

Thank you.

Hi,

I install plugin on my website but no data event in Google Analytics.
My script Google Analytics looks like to :

<script>
			(function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
			(i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
			m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
			})(window,document,'script','https://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');
			ga('create', 'UA-XXXXX', 'auto');
			ga('send', 'pageview');
		</script>

Thanks

Following the GTM integration instructions results in the Event Action in Analytics appearing as “undefined” for all events, and the Event Label being blank.

The fix appears to be:
– Add a new user-defined Variable
– Select “Data Layer Variable”
– Under “Data Layer Variable Name” enter “event_action”
– Save the variable as “Event Action”
– Add a new user-defined Variable
– Select “Data Layer Variable”
– Under “Data Layer Variable Name” enter “event_label”
– Save the variable as “Event Label”
– In the Tag, select {{Event Action}} under Action
– In the Tag, select {{Event Label}} under Label

Would it be possible to update your instructions accordingly please?

Hi,

My GA Events shows 2 different categories for form: “contact form 7” and “contact form”
why is that?

Also, looking at just the “contact 7” category, it shows 17 everts, but there have been closer to 30 valid contact forms, and hundreds of spam submissions.
whats going on?

Hi,

Ive added this pluging and setup the goal in GA and ran some tests, ive used 3 different email addresses (all mine, not random) and the event action is flagging as spam of GA instead of ‘Mail sent’?? I still get the email through from the contact form without it being flagged as spam.

what can be causing this so i get the correct flag through?

thanks

Hi,

I have a few contact forms setup and all working fine. Strange one though… On one form when a contact form is submitted in analytics it’s showing the event label as (not set) and not the name of the contact form.

Any ideas?

I have several different forms on my site and need to have each form be a different goal.
I have set up the tag manager according to these instructions: https://github.com/macbookandrew/cf7-google-analytics#how-do-i-use-this-with-google-tag-manager-gtmjs

This makes it so the event label is always the same “contact form 7”.

I tried to leave the Label field empty (as was suggested in another post) in hopes that it would pull the form name through. It doesn’t seem to change the label to use the Form Name or Form ID.

So when I add the Goal to Google Analytics, it will never count because the form name label is not being pulled through to the analytics with the event.

Am I missing something?

Hi
Thanks for the great plugin, I’m using it on 2 other sites and it works great.

On this site though, no events are getting in Google Analytics.
I’m using Monsterinsights Analytics plugin.

I’ve absolutely no idea why, can you see anything?

Cheers

This is a bit of strange one as to my knowledge nothing has changed on the server but when testing in Firefox (67.0.4), Chrome (75.0.3770.100) and Safari (12.1.1) it’s only tracking the Safari users. my hidden tracking field is “cf7rfr_referrer-75” and when i view source only Safari has populated a value to this field with the referrer URL. I can’t see that anyone else has experienced this issue.

Do we need the Pro version of MonsterInsights for the conversion tracking to work?

Hi,

I installed the pluggin and I set up the contact forms goal on Google Analytics with
category equal Contact Form 7
Action equal Sent
but after submitting a form myself to test it, it doesn’t seem to be working.

Do you know where the problem can come from?

Thanks,

Eloise

Hey,

I have installed this plugin and checked on GA Real Time- Events but can’t see anything happening when I submit my form

Would appreciate it if someone would have a look at it for me?

Kind regards

I have it setup and defined the Goal as documented. Tested my form.

Note I am also using the GA Google Analytics plugin by Jeff Star.

https://bayside-ac.com/services-we-offer/air-conditioning-repair/

Not sure what I have wrong?

I’ve set up the goals in Analytics:

1) Used Contact Forms, Contact Form 7 as a category, tested it with a label and no label to check for mistakes, Action Equals to Sent.
2) Even set up them for all views
3) The plugin is installed and active

However, I’m not seeing changes in GA anywhere (Behavior, Goals, Conversions, nowhere).
Why is that?

Please get in touch,
Best,
E

Hi, should be possible with any modification to fire events with page title instead of form name?

Because in my case I use the same form in different pages and I’ve got to duplicate it only for the porpouse of firing different events.

thank you!

Ok,
this one is difficult. ??

I use Advanced Ads to display forms in different parts of the website.

It seems that in these forms the event is not triggered.

Any hints?

thank you!

Hi,

Me again, how would I go about tracking different forms with tag manager?

Would I simply create two tags in GTM and use the form name for event label instead of {{Event}}?

Thanks,

Josh.

Hi,

I have disabled the ‘Sent’ action and I am no longer seeing events come through in the real-time view in Google Analytics.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Has anyone had any issues with this not working since upgrading to WordPress 5?

We have just noticed that all Goals have stopped around the time we updated a site to WordPress 5.

Before I start taking things apart I thought I would check if anyone else has the same issue?

Hi, Thank you for your plugin.
I have some interrogations.

In the details page of the plugin you wrote :
1- “Category Equals to Contact Form 7”.
this is different from : et Category Equals to “Contact Form 7”
2- Set “Action Equals to ” and enter the event you wish to track (see above for a list of events)
is different from : Action Equals to : “enter the event you wish”
3- Optionally add a label using the name of the form if you want to define a goal for one specific form.
label is different from the title of the contact form we can set when creating the form.

I do have various Goals in GA,
I do have various contact form 7 (one for newletter, one for contact, 2 for other stuff)

So I need to have consistency in the name I use for the labels you said.
for me
Category is : forms
Action is : any event you are using in your plugin
Label : the name of the form
Value : empty as you said.

Here https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/multiple-forms-35/#post-11018240
you are giving us a direction for different forms but I think it is possible to add some more info to make it easier to understand.

Thank you for your response and your help.

Does this plugin work with Analytify? https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-analytify/

Since updating a few weeks ago I see duplicate entries for both:

Contact Form
Contact Form 7

Any idea how to fix this?

I run version 1.8.4
WP 5.0.2

Many thanks!

How do you set up this plugin to track a specific form on your website if you have multiples forms on the site?
