Add a Google Analytics 4 property (to a site that already has Analytics)

If your website builder/CMS does not use the gtag.js tag, and your current tag is analytics.js.
You will need to create a new property. Make sure to use “enhanced measurement” to keep your prior data.

Goto G4 Setup Assistant
Click Data Stream & click on the G4 listing
Configure tag settings
Install Instructions
Install manually
Copy the gtag.js and add it to your site header pages

1. Make sure you are logged in to your gMail

   Click the + in top right to create new
   Type in the Website Name

6. In your php processing script:
   

<?php // Check if form was submitted:

// Build POST request:
$recaptcha_url = 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify';
$recaptcha_secret = 'Your secret key here';
$recaptcha_response = $_POST['recaptcha_response'];

// Make and decode POST request:
$recaptcha = file_get_contents($recaptcha_url . '?secret=' . $recaptcha_secret . '&response=' . $recaptcha_response);
$recaptcha = json_decode($recaptcha);

// Take action based on the score returned:
if ($recaptcha->score >= 0.5) {
  // multiple recipients

Check your .us domain out here:

https://intodns.com/

If you get this error, your DNS was not set up properly, but .com domains don’t seem to care.

ERROR: Some of your DNS servers do not have A records at all. I could not find any A records for the following DNS servers:
ns1.nameserverdomain.com
ns2.nameserverdomain.com

You must have A records for all of your nameservers.

Also…the IP will be missing:
Nameserver records returned by the parent servers are:

ns1.nameserverdomain.com. [] (NO GLUE) [TTL=7200]
ns2.nameserverdomain.com. [] (NO GLUE) [TTL=7200]

a.cctld.us was kind enough to give us that information.

Should look like this:

Nameserver records returned by the parent servers are:

ns70.domaincontrol.com. [‘208.109.255.45’] (NO GLUE) [TTL=3600]
ns69.domaincontrol.com. [‘216.69.185.45’] (NO GLUE) [TTL=3600]

a.cctld.us was kind enough to give us that information.

How do you fix?

– Login to your cPanel/WHM
– Search for Edit DNS Zone
– Select the domain that you set as host/nameserver
– Add New Entries Below this Line
ns1 –> 14400 –> A –> YourServerIP
ns2 –> 14400 –> A –> YourServerIP

Save

Hopefully that will fix the problem.
