XF2 Addons [DigitalPoint] Better Google Analytics 1.0.10

Extends Google Analytics to "track all the things"

Features

• Serve Google Tag Manager JavaScript from your own domain
  • Normally, Google forces browsers to re-download the JavaScript every 15 minutes, which can hurt your site rendering speed. If you choose to serve it from your own domain, the time between re-downloads is set to 30 days. It also allows you to serve it from the network edge (for example cached in Cloudflare's data centers).

Some things to note:

• Does not work with Universal Analytics, only Google Analytics 4 (Universal Analytics is being deprecated and will cease processing new hits on July 1, 2023).
• You need to link your Google Analytics account and pick your property under Admin -> Options -> Analytics
• The Analytics Admin API currently can't enable Enhanced Measurement for your property's data stream. For the time being, you will need to go into your Google Analytics account, go to Admin -> Property -> Data Stream, and enable Enhanced measurement if you want to track the things enhanced measurement tracks. Once Google sorts it out with the Admin API, it will be something we can automatically do. [Google Analytics Admin API changelog]
• In exchange for being free, this addon has a single attribution link buried at the bottom of XenForo's Help -> Privacy policy page (there are no site-wide or footer links).
