Custom even tracking for button-click broken after plugin update

    Hi everyone,

    After having the plugin run stable for quite a while (it was 4.x), I updated it recently to 5.2.8. Since then custom events I had a developer built into the theme-code for me for the click of a special button on my page does not work anymore.

    When I inspect the buttons on my live page https://www.buynai.net, the code actually still shows the analytics stuff. E.g.:

    <a href="https://www.central.co.th/p/make-up-for-ever-??????????????????????????????????-senseyes-cleanser-????-mfc44051-100-??" rel="nofollow external" class="single_add_to_cart_button button alt ext-link" onclick="ga('send', 'event', 'Button', 'Buy at Central Online', 'MAKEUP FOREVER Sens’eyes Cleanser 100 ?? 785 ???????????!');
                         ga('send', 'pageview', 'merchant-button-click');" title="" data-wpel-target="_blank">Buy at Central Online</a>

    The tracking is really important to me. I heard there are still problems with the latest version, so I downgraded manually to 5.2.4. However, the problem persists.

    Any help or ideas?

    Much appreciated ??

    Cheers,
    buynai

    People over at the google analytics support forum helped me out ()

    Apparently it is because the plugin stopped using “ga” and now uses “__gaTracker”
