FAQ

Does this plugin add Google Analytics?

No. This plugin only inserts Google Tag Manager. Use GTM to load Google Analytics, pixels, and other tags as needed.

Will this work with caching/CDN plugins?

Yes. The GTM snippets are output on every page render. If you use aggressive caching, visit a public page once after changes to refresh the status indicator.

Privacy / cookie compliance

This plugin does not collect or send any data by itself.
Compliance depends on what you configure inside GTM and your consent solution.
