Here's what I did,
Installed Google Analytics by MonsterInsighs plugin on WordPress
site.
Authenticated and Connected the plugin to use corresponding Google
Analytics Property
I have not manually inserted any tracking code on my site. I am under the impression that the tracking code insertion is (and should be) the task of MonsterInsights plugin. With that strong supposition, I cleared the cache on Site CDN and Site Server to check if the tracking code is inserted. The three verification methods I used are;
Verification through Google Tag Assistant Chrome Plugin
Verification through Google Analytics Debugger Chrome Plugin
Manual Verification by Viewing Page Source
Ther are no errors in the plugin page. None of the methods have indicated the presence of tracking code. You can have a look yourself at https://techmars.org
PS: All of these activities are very recent i.e. It has just been an hour. Does it usually take some waiting? I haven't encountered such a prerequisite anywhere.
MonsterInsights automatically adds the tracking script. It appears to have done so on your site. The only time it would require waiting is if you were to use some sort of page caching that needs to clear for new frontend output tags to show.

Hello Community!
A friend hired me for SEO implementation and a re-design for his website ( https://intercosultores.net). Among these implementations comes the integration for Google Analytics, GA4.
For Context:
The site has been mounted on Wordpress and previously he had used Google Ads for his website, that's why he inserted a Global Site Tag and a Remarketing Tag with a snippet plugin to add these.
The issue is:
I've created a property for this website within Google Analytics and created a standard Data Stream as I've always done for any other web, copied the Global Site Tag and placed it in the head tag of the website as usual. The problem is, after a while, I'm still not able to view any realtime users even if I'm navigating in it and blocking my ID is not a setting so I should appear. (I'm not using any ad-blocker of any sort which could interfere with the script)
I've tried other options to mounting the GA tag such as through Google Tag Manager and still the same result. Also through the Jetpack pluggin for wordpress which only asks for the Measurement ID and still the same result...
Could there be a problem with the GA Tag and the Global Site Tag from Google Ads?
By the way, the google ads account is of my client, my plan as it has worked before is to set up the property of Analytics and then transfer it later on (we have that trust) but I don't know why this simple task is having such a persistent issue.
Thanks in advance for any advice, really appreciate it!!
About a month ago, we had a Wordpress site that went down due to a billing issue with hosting. They had to restore via backup. Since then there has been no Paid Traffic showing in our Analytics, although UA is tracking. We get most of our traffic via Adwords. I have tried everything I can think of and still can't get it to work! Some details:
We use Tag Manager (there were no edits in there prior to this event)
The only edit to the site was made when we switched from Tag Manager to straight UA script (post event), which didn't work either so we switched it back
Yes, the Analytics and Adwords accounts are linked properly
We tried adding UTM strings to the destination URLs
We tried turning off auto-tagging in Adwords
We tried turning off auto-tagging and then adding UTM
We tried setting up a brand new Analytics account
Finally, we moved the site onto a different host
NOTHING has worked. I have checked everything I can check. Is it a code issue?? Any ideas would be appreciated.
Here's the site: www.advancedwaterrestoration.com
Try Google Tag Assistant - https://get.google.com/tagassistant/ You can use this tool to watch your tags and see if they fire properly, and what data they send.
I am trying to add google analytics to a project that is located under a subdomain. The subdomain has been was pointed to my my project by the domain owner, so I do not have access to the domain itself.
When I add the tracking code the status (shown under Property > Tracking Info)
Status: Tracking Not Installed
Last checked: 04-Jan-2014 00:00:05 PST
The Google Analytics tracking code has not been detected on your
website's home page. For Analytics to function, you or your web
administrator must add the code to each page of your website.
Is there any way to verify the tracking code is installed on the subdomain without having to access the domain root?
Although the tracking status is uninstalled, I am getting activity in Standard Reports > Realtime.
Does this mean that it is working despite the status report?
Am I likely to get correct tracking information with this setup?
You do not need access to the root domain and if the realtime statistics track traffic then most likely your GA setup works correctly. Most likey you did not implement the code at the place in the source code where Google expects it (which usually works but is still flagged as an error in verification).
If you use Google Chrome as browser you can additionally use two nice extensions to verify that your setup is correct:
Google Tag Assistant - verifys various Google Tags without mch detail
Google Analytics Debugger - provides some detail which data is sent to google, which plugins (e.g. ecommerce) are loaded by the analytics code etc.
Just wondered if there is a known issue with GA having trouble tracking a site which has a Wordpress directory?
It seems to be able to track all of my other pages on the site, but we have a /news/ directory which is powered by Wordpress and it doesn't pick this up at all. It is obviously an issue with the fact that this directory is a Wordpress blog, but there must be a way to track it with all of the other pages.
Aaahhh... Sounds like the google analytics tracking code is present on your main site pages, but is not included in the wordpress template that's applied to that sub-section of your site.
The GA tracking code must be visible to google on every page you want to have tracked.
Try 'View Source' in your browser, and check wether the analytics tracking code is present.
If not, you could hard-code the GA tracking code in, or use one of the free WordPress Plugins to do it for you, like 'Google Analytics':

Hope this helps - post back if you're still having problems!

It may not be related, but did you check if your blog is indexable? Under Settings -> Privacy you can check if its enabled.
Another option is to install a google analytics plugin for the blog. If you enter the same credentials from your already-in-use GA it should be combined. I'm using this one on my blog and its working.
I downloaded the sdk for google-analytics for android but where i can setup the account?
I have the option for only adding http or https wesites.
I use the UA number that i got from a fake url but i get no analytics.
Also..
Tracking Status: Tracking Not Installed (Last checked: 19-Jul-2010 11:35:21 )
The Google Analytics tracking code has not been detected on your website's homepage. For Analytics to function, you or your web administrator must add the code to each page of your website.
The Google Analytics javascript runs when you load a page. You must have a Javascript snippet that actually notifies the Google Analytics server when a client visits the page. This snippet is available once you've set up a site in Google Analytics.
I'm not exactly clear what you mean by "where can I setup the account". It sounds like you've found it.
Edit: For the Mobile version (non website) there's info here:
From that page:
Before you begin using the SDK, you
must first create a free account at
www.google.com/analytics and create a
new website profile in that account
using a fake but descriptive website
URL (e.g.
http://mymobileapp.mywebsite.com).
Once you create the profile, write
down or keep a copy of the web
property ID that is generated for the
newly-created profile.
To uninstall the Google Analytic Mod from your Zen Cart follow these steps http://surreystore.com/Forums/joomla-help/uninstall-google-analytics-by-andrew/
Perhaps here, where it says "Sign up now"? I'm not 100% sure, and am not a user of analytics, but that seemed likely to me. Also see here for a getting started guide.
