Integrate GA4 Google Analytics Plugin

The “Integrate GA4 Google Analytics” plugin is a simple, lightweight, and fast plugin that enables Google Analytics tracking for your WordPress site. It supports Google Analytics 4, and allows you to easily integrate the latest Google Analytics code into your site properly.

Simple to Use

To use the plugin, simply enter your GA4 Measurement ID into the plugin settings page. Press the “Save Changes” button. Once the GA4 Measurement ID is entered, the plugin will insert the appropriate script into your site, allowing Google Analytics to access user activity on the site. It’s important to note that it can take up to 24-48 hours after adding your GA4 ID before any analytical data appears in your Google Analytics account.

To disable tracking for User roles, select the roles you wish to disable. Press the “Save Changes” button.
