Google Analytics with Consent not working

    Hello,

    thanks for your great plugin!

    Since the update from version 2.8.9 to the newest version I have a problem with the Google Analytics code.
    I use a consent which allows tracking with Google Analytics only if the visitor has agreed to it, for this reason my code looks like this:

    <!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async class="cmplazyload" data-cmp-vendor="s26" data-cmp-src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXX">
</script>
<script>
  window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
  function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
  gtag('js', new Date());

  gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXX', { 'anonymize_ip': true });
</script>

    Once I enable JS processing in FVM, the plugin does the following code on it: 

    <script>
window.dataLayer=window.dataLayer|[];function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments)}
gtag('js',new Date());gtag('config','G-XXXXXXX',{'anonymize_ip':!0})

</script>

    so it deletes the top line. When I remove the data-cmp- 

    <!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async class="cmplazyload" data-cmp-vendor="s26" src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXX">
</script>

    GA works again, but this is critical from a data protection point of view. Is there a setting here that prevents FVM from deleting the line? I have tried all the checkbox combinations in JS processing so far.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    I’m not sure I understood, what top line is disappearing?

    Does `<script async class=”cmplazyload” data-cmp-vendor=”s26″ data-cmp-src=”https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXX”&gt;
    </script>` disappear completely?

    If that is the case, it may be because the script has no valid src attribute.
    In that case, I suggest you change your markup to dynamically create the element based on your consent rule.

    For example, something like this, but wrapped under your condition:

    let script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = "https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXX";
document.body.append(script);
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXX', { 'anonymize_ip': true });
