    Dear developers,
    in the plugin settings (WooCommerce / Settings / Integration / Google Analytics) there is a block Tracking Options.

    If “Enable Standard Tracking” is disabled (not checked), then enabling (checking) ‘Enable Standard Tracking‘ or ‘“Display Advertising” Support‘ or ‘Use Enhanced Link Attribution‘ or ‘Anonymize IP addresses‘ has NO effect at all.
    This should be noted on the settings page.
    The plugin basically allows to save invalid settings.
    Affected plugin version: 1.8.2

    Hey @babelhalsupport,

    Interesting observation. Are you saying that when Enable Standard Tracking is disabled, the settings below should not be selectable?

    If so, the reason for this is in case you are using a 3rd party Google Analytics plugin. IN this case, you wouldn’t need to enable the setting to get the other options.

    If this is not correct, we’d love to get some more information to fully understand your question and how the settings are configured.
