Problems with Google Analytics Tracking

Hello,

I'm having some trouble tracking my data via Google Analytics on my WordPress site.

Now i've installed the tracking code in the header of the page as i always do, it's been working fine and tracking the traffic, but suddenly since last week it stopped working for some unknown reason, when i access the site and i try to see "Active users now" to see if i'm being detected i don't get any.

Here is my code, did i miss anything ? Does anyone have any idea why ? Also i'm having some new errors in my console.

Any help on this matter would be much appreciated. Thanks !



<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->

<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UX-XXXXXXX-1"></script>

<script>

window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];

function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}

gtag('js', new Date());



gtag('config', 'UX-XXXXXXX-1');

</script>

      Thank you for your reply!

      The only thing i did is a added a few functions in the file "functions.php" and i unloaded a few plugins with a caching plugin.

      I even tried adding the tracking code through a theme feature, and it didn't work either.

      Will it help if i showed the console error messages?

    .. let us start with basics: have you done test from your G Analytics dashboard?

    .. just in a case: here is how you do that in 3 simple steps:

    1) location:


    ---

    2) press this button:


    ---

    3) your results should be something like this:


    ----

    sorted?

    (based on my experience) usually the problems are caused by too many plugins or G analytics code 2, 3 or even more times

    Then, if you still have issues:

    1) remove everything you have done manually

    2) Add a plugin like this https://wordpress.org/plugins/addfunc-head-footer-code/ or similar

    3) Copy/paste your G analytics code into a field "site-wide head code" (similar names in most plugins providing the same functional)

    do not invent the bicycle
