I finally managed to set up the google analytic 4
Maybe it was easy for some, not for me.
so after some trials and errors
and using the google kit plugin
finally a no mistakes screen popped up.
Here it is:
Yippee dance.
one down (one site up) some more to go
😋
And special thanks to site support as well
for reloading site (cron not always active)
Did you start the transition to google analytic 4?
And if not where are you stuck?
And if so, do you like the latest version? I, do!
PS
With google kit plugin, ways easier
1. You need to transfer your old UA to new analythics,
2 . And there, make sure to copy the code and add to your website with a header plugin, (or ask sitesupport to do this)
3. Install plugin, activate and connect (give it 24 hours to show up)
Done
🤩🥳

You are not alone I am struggling with it also!!! It says I have until July 1st so I will try to tackle this again next week! I am glad I am not the only one to have the same issue. I see so many people saying how easy it is, but it isn't in my case.

Yep.
Face your problem indeed (my pep talk)
Just a tip with shortcut

Great job, Fleeky!
Yes, I've been using GA-4 since it was introduced.
GA-4 and GSC are two very essential tools. For example, without GSC, I wouldn't have quickly discovered the recent hack on my website!
I know a lot of people use Google Site Kit, but it can slow down your site.

Thanks for the tumbs up

Site kit works fine and gives instant access to your GA and GSC dashboards...
I use database cleaner also. For,those who not know how, ask,site support. Speeds up instantly (am using plugin to do so, but with cron, hickups )

Hi, Fleeky
Site Kit only provides a small sample of the available data in GA-4 and GSC.
Please be careful with database cleaner plugins. One created errors on my original site, and it took Site Support quite a while to get it all straightened out.
I'm glad you got everything set up. 😎

Yes, trully relieved also
Yes, and also gives a shortcut to full GA and GSC . Easy access... lovely switching. Easier on the eyes and nerves...
😋😎
Thanks for the warning with database
Better ask site support indeed
Last tip:
Not a job to do in between. Needs some time.

Well done, Dear.
It is a free plug-in.
Not sure why some site needs them not all.
Jay's training did not use any additional plug-ins to install GA4.
However, it is a helpful plug-in to have.
Site Kit is Google's official WordPress plugin—it gives you insights into how people find and use your site, and how to improve and monetize your content, with data from multiple Google tools.
Thank you for adding
Tested both
With and without plugin
I love the google kit plugin
It gives you instant insight
Without having to switch sites
Also, guides you,through the proces
So, if you are less familiar with code
Much easier
My two cents
😜
