google analytic wrong code

by mclechelle May 11th 2020, 1:40 am

Hi, I've updated my google analytic code via admin panel several times, but each time I view my page source I'll see a different ID on the code. Any solution?

Hello @mclechelle

I think you see the Forumotion's ID which is often present on many forums. If you add your own ID, you will see two IDs: our ID + your ID.

Are you sure there is only one ID after saving your change? Do you add your ID the the menu "Google Analytics" or directly via a template?

Yes,I added it through the menu (google analytic) and saved it. What i'm seeing here is just one ID. check www.naijatc.com to verify. my ID is UA-165948811-1 but what i'm seeing there is 144337024-1.

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:00 pm

I see that ID on the source page:

Code:: <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-144337024-1" ></script>

How do I replace it with mine?

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:07 pm

Did you also add the meta tags to your forum?

by mclechelle May 12th 2020, 8:09 pm

Yes, I've tried several options.

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:11 pm

I mean here: AP > General > Forum Promotion > Search Engines (Additional Tags Section)

by mclechelle May 12th 2020, 8:12 pm

Yes, I did.

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:15 pm

So when you added it, you added the correct ID?

by mclechelle May 12th 2020, 8:20 pm

I inserted it in overall header file from forum template

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:40 pm

Please post what you exactly added using the code tags.

by **SLGray** May 12th 2020, 8:44 pm

Also did you save the change and publish the modified template?

by mclechelle May 13th 2020, 5:33 am

Yes, I did that.

Code:: <meta name="Ghana Lotto" content="Ghana lotto forecast" /> <meta name="Ghana Lotto" content="Ghana lotto prediction" /> <meta name="Bet9ja" content="Bet9ja predictions" /> <meta name="Betking" content="Betking predictions" /> <meta name="Sports Betting" content="Bet9ja and Betking predictions and forecast" /> <meta name="Airtel" content="Airtel browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Mtn" content="MTN browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Glo" content="Glo browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="9mobile" content="9mobile tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Satellite technology" content="Free to air satellite channels" />

I think my script needs to be refresh or cache cleared by whatever method forumotion use. I've discovered that anything I add to the script doesn't change at all. Still displaying old entries.

That is what Google gave as the code?

by mclechelle May 15th 2020, 12:08 am

No, SEO meta tags shouldn't have anything to do with google analytic code. Google analytic code can't even enter the meta tag fields.

I have added the google analytic code manually to my overall header file but it doesn't reflect on my website source code. I tried adding a simple HTML code to both header and footer but it still doesn't reflect on my forum. I've tried adding google analytic ID through admin - general- statistics- google analytics, still no way.

Kindly assist on how to clear my forum cache. I think it is totally stuck cuz nothing seems to change.

Are you sure that you licked the save button after adding it and then clicking the publish button?

by mclechelle May 15th 2020, 9:29 am

I've been using forumotion since 2011. I know my way through the admin panel very well. If I didn't clicked on the save button it won't be showing my ID whenever I'm revisit it. My ID is save in the settings but it doesn't reflect on my forum. My ads are not even displaying anymore. I'm using a premium plan.

by **SLGray** May 15th 2020, 9:38 pm

The coding you posted does not even contain the ID information. You have not add it correctly. I still say that to add it you need to use the meta tags option.

by mclechelle May 16th 2020, 1:39 am

How do I do that? Can I see a sample?

Have you tried clear browser cache or open your site in incognito mode yet?

For more information, please delete some un-necessary meta tag can be found in this

Code:: <meta name="Ghana Lotto" content="Ghana lotto forecast" /> <meta name="Ghana Lotto" content="Ghana lotto prediction" /> <meta name="Bet9ja" content="Bet9ja predictions" /> <meta name="Betking" content="Betking predictions" /> <meta name="Sports Betting" content="Bet9ja and Betking predictions and forecast" /> <meta name="Airtel" content="Airtel browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Mtn" content="MTN browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Glo" content="Glo browsing tips and tricks" /> <meta name="9mobile" content="9mobile tips and tricks" /> <meta name="Satellite technology" content="Free to air satellite channels" />

Hello,

I'm sorry, I didn't follow all the actions you applied. But now I see two times on the same page your Google Analytics ID on every pages:

If you inserted manually your Google Analytics tag, I think you can remove your ID in the menu: General > Statistics > Google Analytics

And because I see your ID on each page of your forum, I think there is no issue anymore, right?
