Description

This is a (very) simple plugin for embedding a Google Analytics (GA) tracking code in your site. It has two features:

  • It stores the GA code as a site setting. This means no modifying theme files, which is especially useful in a Multisite context;
  • The GA code is NOT inserted for logged-in users, meaning you won’t run up your visitor counts as you administer your site;

And that’s it! It works with Google’s “Asynchronous” tracking code, which goes in the page’s head.

  1. Install and activate the plugin, in the normal way;
  2. Go to Google Analytics and follow the various steps to generate your tracking code. Copy the entire tracking code to your clipboard;
  3. From your site’s Dashboard, navigate to Settings -> Google Analytics;
  4. Paste your tracking code into the large box and click “Save Changes”;

That’s it!

  1. Paste your Google Analytics tracking code into the box
