Google Analytics not working correctly

are you using a plugin to integrate GA and if so have you tried excluding that from Async/ defer?

Thanks for the swift response! No we are not, I have it loading via Google tag manager.

so all is handled through inline JS? can you check the HTML source to see if somewhere in that inline GTM JS there is an async (or defer) flag added by asyncJS?

I sure will, let me get back to you shortly.

This is what is loading in live source code.

but that’s the noscript part, can you also post what is inside <script> tags (make sure to mark it as code to avoid it’s removed)?

I think I may have found the problem, we also use WP Rocket. When disabling WP rocket the tag manager script loads correctly now with the following.

<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({'gtm.start':
new Date().getTime(),event:'gtm.js'});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!='dataLayer'?'&l='+l:'';j.async=true;j.src=
'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id='+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,'script','dataLayer','GTM-private');</script>

With WP Rocket enabled it loads only

Ok just confirmed it with Google Analytics real time, tracking is working correctly and had nothing to do with your plug-in. Something with WP Rocket was stripping the script. I really appreciate you help and your script is just awesome!

you’re welcome, feel free to leave a review of the plugin and support here! ??

You bet!
