I am just doing some more setup today and the Google Tracking code for Google Analytics is not working.
Google has a huge amount of code for the tracking code!
I stripped out the 13 character code that HubPages wants and entered it, but got an error message from Google that the code was wrong.
The entire code will not fit.
I Google Analytics not working?
Have you followed the instructions here? http://hubpages.com/faq/#analytics

Thanks for the reply!

I just opened a Google Analytics account and posted all the necessary information for my HubPages; however a screen came up that says "This is your tracking code. Copy and paste it into the code of every page you want to track." How do I do this?

I know I brought this up before, but I've received two emails from GA recently regarding the UA version no longer processing new date as of July 1, 2023. This banner appears at the top of my GA page: NotificationUniversal Analytics will no longer process new data in standard properties beginning...

I'm receiveing notifications that Google Analytics requires me to migrate all of my tracking to the G4 properties. However, HubPages only seems to accept the UI ID from the old tracking method. We need an update to the google analytics integration to work with G4 properties.I'm trying to update via...
