GA offload which code?

    Hello,

    I have seen the topics on GA offload and read that you need to insert the new GA script.

    This is what I hope is the correct script which I found in GA:

    <!– Global site tag (gtag.js) – Google Analytics –>
    <script async src=”https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-XXXXXX-1″></script>
    <script>
    window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
    function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
    gtag(‘js’, new Date());

    gtag(‘config’, ‘UA-XXXXXX-1’);
    </script>

    Since I am not technical at all, can you please let me know what part I should insert? I inserted it all, but that does not seem to work.

    Hope it can be fixed! Thanks in advance, Arien

    I believe all you need to add to the plugin is the UA-XXXXXX-1 code nothing else.

    Please let me know if you need any more help.

    Thanks, Jake.

    Hello Jake,

    Many thanks for your reaction. I did that but unfortunately did not work.

    Read elsewhere on the forum that you should use “the new” GA code if UA-XXXXXX-1 did not work.

    Finally hope to get it working somehow. I welcome any other suggestions…

    Thanks, Arien

    Yeah, this doesn’t work for me either. I’m not aware of any other GA codes or IDs. So if I enter the UA-XXXXXX-1 to the relevant field of the plugin, GA stops collecting data. It does output some code on page load, I can see it in the source code, but it doesn’t seem to be working.

    Best,
    Tom

    Have you tried these:

    1. Disabled all plugins to see if you have any plugins that are stopping it from working.
    2. Do you have an adblocker on your browser maybe try to disable it and reload the page?

    There are also some other plugins that you could try:

    Many thanks digsbagger, have disabled plugins, my adblocker, cleared browser history and caches, but unfortunately non of that helped.

    Maybe I will switch to clearfy, but prefer is plugin developer will come with a solution.

    Hi all and thanks for the help above,

    Arejis you should be inserting just the code UA-XXXXXX-1, if this does not show up in Google, then it will not work and the advice is do not use this feature, its not supported by Google at all and we have tried numerous versions of this, but not all sites work with it, as of now, there is no fix for this so the only suggestion is, if it does not work for your site, use the traditional GA embed as you were using before

    Thanks again for continued use and support of the plugin

    Thanks Jody, and fingers crossed that someday you will find THE solution, since it really would improve loading speed.
