superb tutorial on the topic. This video tutorial should be updated and maintained as a solid reference.

[@hbibokillo1481]

As beginner to Google tag manager. I send you many many thanks. Thanks to you and Ahmed, I get rid og Google site kit plugin and installed this awesome plugin to deploy Google analytics via GTM. All is working well. Love u guys and keep teaching your skills.

[@brianfrias]

A great summary video of the settings in GTM4WP and how they effect tracking. I have been using this plugin for 6+ months. Amazing to learn even more ways to leverage this plugin with Tag Manager. Thanks!!

[@tomasignacioaravenabarros7387]

This is the best GTM tutorial i´ve ever seen

[@MarieBestard]

Thanks for the tutorial ! Which GTM plugin could be used with Odoo in order to create the datalayer for ecommerce tracking ?

[@amitbar-barushka]

Hi, Thank you for the tutorial. For ecommerce the plugin doesn't send add to cart event - do you maybe have a solution for that problem? Thanks!

[@zybotsu001]

the advance datalayer variable feature is what I wanted to learn about and it's the one topic not covered. Can't seem to find a guide on this anywhere online.

[@bjhamaker2439]

This was extremely informative! Thank you very much.

[@musaformazione]

Hi! One question. Why did you select "footer of the page....(not recommended by Google...)" instead of "custom...."? I'm talking about the general setup, at the Container Code Placement. Thanks in advance

[@judenwachukwu1323]

this is amazing, thanks Ahamds & Julian for this valuable video

[@JulieCrafton-wl6wl]

Really great priceless information, highly recommend!

[@caseychxate]

This was so helpful...thank you!

[@GRANITE-EDUCATION]

Thank you for the very helpful video! When I go into "debug mode" (featured at 8:47), I am not able to get the "split-screen" debug mode that Ahmad has. I am able to use the page and get my debug data in another tab. How did Ahmad get this split-screen (top and bottom) so he could see his debugging information in the same window as the demo site he was browsing?

[@DownBYOB]

Hello. Sweet information and beautiful shop at 1:39 too! Does anyone know which theme it is?

[@BillAngelos]

This is a great video. Congrats on your (very soon) play button for 100k subscribers.

[@Cpod1133]

Great stuff, extremely helpful! I do have a question. I am using GTM mostly for our google ad conversion tracking. I already have Google Analytics integrated on my website, collecting main data such as page views. If I simply do not add the Google Analytics Universal tag in GTM, there should be no conflicting data correct? So pretty much the only tag Ill have in GTM is Google Ad conversion tracking. Any help is much appreciated... Thanks!

[@simongustafsson9877]

How can I use this with an cookie bar plugin like "GDPR Cookie Compliance (CCPA, PIPEDA ready)" This plugin only shoot in the GTM code if you accept. I'm guessing this plugin will push the GTM code for all visitors? Really good video tho!

[@KS-fz7hh]

Hi, so far so good but why exactly wouldn't you use a standard GA variable at 3:13?

[@charlesstherling9520]

If i have already installed the GTM tracking code manually and i only want to use the GTM for Wordpress plugin for the data layer, is that possible ?

[@nguyenquangngoc3993]

Thank you for great video. Should we use Google Site Kit for install GTM?

[@MeasureSchool]

If you want, but it will not provide all the functionality that this plugin does

[@rgkh1503]

very good tutorial, but would have been nice to have an example of usage of woocommerce data for GTM for ex..

[@yaniv2266]

Thank you!

[@evarose6682]

Page view trigger not showing ..what i can do now ? DOM ready, window loaded are available

[@mimoshossain3371]

Hello, thank you for the video, would you please let me know if I install and set up tag manager ID into the plugin, then may I need input the GTM tag to the website header? if yes what most benefit with the plugin? if not, then which one will better manually input or by plugin?

[@MeasureSchool]

yes, you can place the id in the field and the plugin will input the code onto your site

[@smartpalminienvios9114]

Hi there my name is Gerardo....what happen when the order have multiple items? how can you extract that data from the Data Layer

[@The_Superbillionaire]

Thanks a billion for this all inspiring Video... it really saved me a ton of trial and error...Thanks a Billion once again

[@josemiguelcorrea]

Hi! Have you thought about releasing a new video explaining the new Enhanced E-Commerce configuration? from version 1.13?

[@JamesBirchY]

I just watched you cart abandonment using GTM > Klaviyo from a couple of years ago. Is that still current using this plugin or is there a new way to do it?

[@anatoliysavchenko8722]

I have to work with Multisite Instalation, how should i use this plugin in this situation? Can I declare on each site of multisite its own trakking code or i should write them together??? Amazing tutorial!!! Like, Like, Like!

[@stef9925]

Great video! I have one question. I would like to track clicks from my website menu but can't find a unique variable to set-up an event. Does anyone know a solution?

[@MeasureSchool]

use matches CSS selector option

[@maxx.mazzeo]

Amazing tutorial. I have a little problem, i follow every step but my tag keeps firing altough i'm the administrator. This is specifically the 17:07 part of the video. I don't know why it doesn't seem to work well.

[@joellemorris5684]

Your tutorial is great. Exactly as you mentioned in your video, I followed your instructions for the GA - Pageview tag to not fire when administrator is logged in. In preview mode, i see that the Tag doesn't actually fire but i still see myself (as logged in administrator) as a realtime user in GA (in the Reports > Overview > real time). Why could this be?

[@dontrez8412]

Koszonom Szepen!

[@hamzaelkharraz927]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@LimitlessNarration]

I installed this plugin and I’m still getting the missing e-commerce data message.

[@VodataDigital]

Have you found a solution to this? I am missing as well

[@edscott1233]

On following your instructions for removing administrator visitorType on page views, my GA and Facebook pageview tags are still firing. Triple checked everything. Any suggestions? Thank you

[@edscott1233]

Okay fixed this by using plugin install method - Footer of the page (not recommended by Google, no tweak in your template required) and removing the GTM code from headers and footers. I now note that causes the 'message' data layer to load before the 'page view'. I just wanted to clarify that this 'not recommended' code install will not impact any of my other tags for FB etc?

[@MeasureSchool]

that I can't promise. You will need to test it

[@dianadiniz4]

Muito bom ! Obrigadooooo!!!!

Love it !!

[@hbibokillo1481]

Great tutorial. 5 star 🌟...

[@Mcpconsultancies]

Hey, Julian are you inferring that the WordPress plugin is better placing the code in your child-theme

[@siavashkanani]

MCP Consultancies you can place GTM container in a child-theme and then use this plugin only for pushing extra information into the data layer.

[@GamingMansion]

I configured it exactly like on the video and it doesn't track purchases ;( But it tracks other steps.

[@MeasureSchool]

I guess that's a win?

[@GamingMansion]

@@MeasureSchool What I mean is that it doesn't track purchases and it should ;p

[@etergenmere]

The plugin doesnt have anymore the enhanced ecommerce tracking

[@shashankaggarwal7142]

I am not getting "Message" in the Summary column in preview mode Please help

[@MeasureSchool]

might be that the data is not correctly pushed. The plugin works with a standard wordpress website. If you have a lot of customization, then it might not be able to push the data

[@maxx.mazzeo]

Try to Purge All Caches then refresh the page, it might help too. Cheers

[@abrotherinchrist]

The gate or compressor you have on the voice is kicking in when you stop talking, making the audio jump way up in volume. It's pretty distracting and makes me nervous watching this video. I don't want to blow my speakers if for some reason it actually stays that loud.

[@zeroimpetuous]

Installing GTM through a plugin like that is never a good idea. It's places the snippet in the wrong location apparently - that's what it says when I install search console and google analytics via tag manager. If you have access to the header.php file, place the code manually under the head part. Way better than these unreliable plugins

[@farhanahmad7715]

Instead of Google Tag Manager by a 3rd Party, Why you did not install the Site Kit by Google?
