Error gathering analytics data from Google

    Hi,

    I’ve started seeing the following error message on the site for the past day and a half:
    —
    Error gathering analytics data from Google: usageLimitsuserRateLimitExceededUnregUser Rate Limit Exceeded. Please sign up https://code.google.com/apis/console
    —

    It seems to be IP-related as the exact same settings (oauth token, secret, etc.) work fine on my local dev machine.

    I’ve also checked Analytics API usage in Google Console and it shows 0% – which I suppose make sense as the error above mentions “UnregUser”.

    [1] How do I fix this?
    [2] Has Google API permanently/temporary blocked the IP?
    [3] Is there a way to link the plugin to my API account instead of using the anonymous user as seems to be the case at the moment?

    Thanks ??

    Take care,
    Alex

    Hi,

    It seems all you have to do is replace all occurrences (3 at the moment) of:
    $consumer = new GADOAuthConsumer('anonymous', 'anonymous', NULL);
    with:
    $consumer = new GADOAuthConsumer('YOUR OAUTH CLIENT ID', 'YOUR OAUTH CLIENT SECRET', NULL);
    in the plugin code and go through the login procedure again (Settings > Google Analytics Dashboard).

    The only downside is that you’ll have to be careful when WP updates the plugin as it will overwrite your changes… Would be nice if there was an option to provide Client ID/Client Secret in the UI instead or editing the code ??

    Take care,
    Alex
