GA version 4

    Hello,

    I first installed GA in RankMath when it was still on v3 and then somehow updated my GA account to v4 but still don’t understand a single setting in there…

    Do I need to change anything in my settings of RankMath or may I leave them as they are?

    Because GA is keeping asking me to “add your new Google Analytics tag (gtag.js) to the header of every page of your site” although I have the previous one still in use in RankMath.

    Thanks.

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    The Analytics module in Rank Math does not work with v4 of Google Analytics.

    We will be working on that very soon.

    We will keep you posted about the progress.​

    Thanks for this, well noted.
    May I keep the connection as is with GA 3 even if I already enabled version 4 but din’t add their new tag at my site?

    Just came here to mention that! Don’t think you can even create a v3 property anymore for new sites.

    Hello,

    We are working on upgrading it to support v4.

    It might take a bit before that update is ready.

    You can continue using v3 till then.

    Many thanks, well noted.
    BTW, the Google Search Console menu has been replaced by this one, right?
    Or is ti hidden somewhere else?

    Hello,

    Yes it has. We revamped the module to the Analytics module which is way more improved in terms of data shown, accuracy and even performance.

    Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.

    Hi,

    Do you have an estimation on when you are supporting v4 for Google Analytics? I have created a new site and new property on google but I can not use it with rank math.

    kindly regards

    Hello,

    Thank you for getting in touch.

    GA4 is relatively a new product and is in Beta, & there could be data discrepancies if we were to integrate them into Rank Math. And the fact that their APIs are not yet fully ready for 3rd party integration, there is not much we can do.

    However, we will begin working on the integration as soon as they improve their V4 API.

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.

    Hi, thanks for the answer. Do you have any suggestion how I can create an “old” google property because I think as soon as I create a new property it creates automatically the v4 version.

    Thanks!
