Hi
I wonder if since 2019 this has been made easier ?
How can I install a google Analytics code (one of two ways)
1) with a google code eg AW-16570091007
2) with adding code inbetween <head> and </head> tag

I am not a big coder, and not sure if i want to tag all pages, maybe just the pages I want to verify through google advertising perhaps ? Unless someone has exp with google advertising ?

Regards all and merry xmas

While on the google subject I also need to add some code (script) so that google confirms a sale (or possible one)
I presume the best place for this is on loading the cart page
Again this needs to go inbtween <head> and </head>
Which file do I need to put this google script in ?

Example script

<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) event -->
<script>
gtag('event', 'ads_conversion_Checkout_1', {
// <event_parameters>
});
</script>

You need a cookie policy manager that conditionally loads Analytics or Ads based on the user consent.

Most users put the code in the layout file. But I recommend the Site Tags add-on.

so... would it be possible to allow a google gtag code to be put into each product ?
So owner and google can monitor individual product if using google ads ? I havent checked yet, but it must be possible that google use different codes for different google ad campaigns, so you can monitor individual ads for different products?
EG a field on each product where this code can be added when creating a Google ad campaign ?
Then the code would be re-produced in <head> if a code exists ? If I am spending money on google advertising this would be an add on I would pay for. Rather than just a site wide google anayltics code .
Also a field to be added to the chceckout page with the same simple google ads code to register a sale , or at least interest in the google ad.

For enhanced e-commerce analytics you need to code specific javascript events for each on page event you want to track. There are two addons in the add-ons store you could look into.
