FAQ

Where can I find the setting for this plugin?

This plugin will add the settings to the Integration tab, found in the WooCommerce → Settings menu.

I don’t see the code on my site. Where is it?

We purposefully don’t track admin visits to the site. Log out of the site (or open a Google Chrome Incognito window) and check if the code is there for non-admins.

Also please make sure to enter your Google Analytics ID under WooCommerce → Settings → Integrations.

My code is there. Why is it still not tracking sales?

Duplicate Google Analytics code causes a conflict in tracking. Remove any other Google Analytics plugins or code from your site to avoid duplication and conflicts in tracking.

My settings are not saving!

Do you have SUHOSIN installed/active on your server? If so, the default index length is 64 and some settings on this plugin requires longer lengths. Try setting your SUHOSIN configuration’s “max_array_index_length” to “100” and test again.

My national data privacy laws require that I offer an opt-out for users, how can I do this?

Include the following html code snippet within the page where you want to have the opt-out, e.g. the your Imprint our Data Privacy page:

You can prevent Google Analytics from tracking you by clicking the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set, which will prevent you being tracked when visiting this website in the future:
<a href="javascript:gaOptout()">Deactivate Google Analytics</a>.

Exact wording depends on the national data privacy laws and should be adjusted.

I installed this plugin, configured the settings and it did not work. Didn't even bother to try and figure it out. Deactivated it and removed it from my site.

Just to confirm that this does work but you need to be logged out of the site admin to see the Analytics code

It picks up UTM tags from Google Ads and put the UTM on the URLs for the Google Ad landing pages on the website. This can result in that Google reject the ads and it messes up your statistic, search index etc.

Easy to use and works as expected.
