Google Analytics - active or not?

[Victoria_Russell]

I have looked through the settings menu and I was wondering if someone could tell me where I can find out if Google Analytics is active on our forum?

If the site setting ga universal tracking code is filled it will be active.

If you do have content security policy enabled you will also need to add and https://www.google-analytics.com to content security policy script src, for it to work.

You should see the hits in Google Analytics dashboard in a few moments after configuration.

This is automatic:

Why is it broken in Meta then

Loads for me in chrome, and google analytics is present in the CSP header. Do you have an ad-blocker?

or it can be this new tracking protection feature of firefox, it blocks google analytics on all websites.

That was it. In latest Firefox it’s blocked by default.
