[Plugin: Google Analytics for WordPress] My outbound links aren’t showing up in Google Analytics

  • My outbound links aren’t showing up in Google Analytics. You can see the page I’m trying to track by going to:

    https://www.childgearreviews.com/car-seat-reviews/

    You can see that each of the “buy” buttons are tracked with the correct tags. But they’re not showing up in my reports. Perhaps there is a delay.

    I tested it by clicking on the “Buy” buttons several times. I wasn’t logged into WordPress as an Admin so, it, for sure recorded the clicks.

    Any thoughts would help.

  • I’ve got the same problem. I just upgraded from WP 2.6 to 2.8.1 and then added (for the first time) the Google Analytics For WordPress 2.9.5 version. I’m using the PrimePress 1.3.1 theme and everything is working beautifully with the theme, although there’s a few minor tweaks I’d like to make. My blog is hosted at my website’s hostserver–HostGator–the code (<?php wp_footer(); ?>)located in the footer.php file is correct–the plugin shows activated and my GA UA# is correct in the plugin’s setting window. The status box at GA “Content Drilldown” is checkmarked indicating that it is ready to receive data but none shown. I’m a newbie to WordPress and Google Analytics but I’ve researched pretty thoroughly and tried everything that came to mind to change and no success–any ideas?? Your thoughts will be much appreciated.

    UPDATE: Although I didn’t see any notes at GA or at the Plugin there apparently was a time delay (I believe about 24 hours) in the data showing at GA. The delay might have been with GA since I set up a new account for the blog after installing the plugin. Everything seems to be working beautifully now and all is well with the world. ??
