[feature request] Set GTM ID via wp-config.php

Hi Joda,

This is already possible, you can use these PHP constants to fix some plugin options:

GTM4WP_HARDCODED_GTM_ID
GTM4WP_HARDCODED_GTM_ENV_AUTH
GTM4WP_HARDCODED_GTM_ENV_PREVIEW

@duracelltomi that’s good to know!
Is this documented somewhere? With additional information on how to use them properly?

Hi,

It is not yet documented on the website but it was mentioned in the cnangelog.
I will do my best to create a documentation page as well.

About the “how to use”: you should open your wp-config.php and add the appropriate lines here, like:

define('GTM4WP_HARDCODED_GTM_ID', 'GTM-ABCDEF');

If you define the 3 constants, GTM4WP use this instead of any input in plugin options. You should “just” make sure that while deploying your site from dev to live, do not deploy wp-config.php. But this is usually already part of the process.

@duracelltomi thanks for the response.
The questions was, what the 2 later constants are used for. I checked the code and found out ??
They are used to predefine the necessary variables to jump directly into a preview environment of GTM.

Thanks!
