Google Tag Manager & Child Theme

Hey jillinnemann,

Where exactly is that code supposed to go, into the header? If so then we can give you a function to try out.

Best regards,

Hi,

Ok, please try this in your functions.php file:

function jillinnemann_google_script(){
?>
<!– Google Tag Manager –>
<script>(function(w,d,s,l,i){w[l]=w[l]||[];w[l].push({‘gtm.start’:
new Date().getTime(),event:’gtm.js’});var f=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],
j=d.createElement(s),dl=l!=’dataLayer’?’&l=’+l:”;j.async=true;j.src=
‘https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtm.js?id=’+i+dl;f.parentNode.insertBefore(j,f);
})(window,document,’script’,’dataLayer’,’GTM-5R2C5XW’);</script>
<!– End Google Tag Manager –>

<!– Google Tag Manager (noscript) –>
<noscript><iframe src=”https://www.googletagmanager.com/ns.html?id=GTM-5R2C5XW”
height=”0″ width=”0″ style=”display:none;visibility:hidden”></iframe></noscript>
<!– End Google Tag Manager (noscript) –>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_head', 'jillinnemann_google_script');

Hi,

Thanks for that, but we can’t guess where it’s supposed to go. Could you check the documentation to see where exactly it’s supposed to go?

Hi,

Please try this instead:

function jillinnemann_google_script_after_body(){
?>
THE SCRIPT WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO GO AFTER THE OPENING BODY TAG GOES HERE
<?php
}
add_action('wp_body_open', 'jillinnemann_google_script_after_body');

Make sure that you are running WordPress 5.2 or higher, otherwise it won’t work.

Best regards,

Hi ClaudioPignoli,

That hook is not added in the theme version you are running, please update to the latest version (4.6.2) and it should work after that.

Best regards,
Rikard
