GTM4WP – A Google Tag Manager (GTM) plugin for WordPress

説明

Google Tag Manager (GTM) is Google’s free tool for everyone to manage and deploy analytics and marketing tags as well as other code snippets
using an intuitive web UI. To learn more about this tool, visit the official website.

This plugin places the GTM container code snippets onto your WordPress website so that you do not need to add it manually.
Multiple containers are also supported!

The plugin complements your GTM setup by pushing page meta data and user information into the so called data layer.
Google’s official help pages includes more details about the data layer.

PHP 7.4 is required to use this plugin.

GTM コンテナコードの置き換え

オリジナルのGTMコンテナコードは2つのパートに分かれます:

前半は、サイト全ページの <head> セクションに追加される JavaScript コードスニペットです。
これは GTM のすべての機能を有効化する重要な部分です。本プラグインは、この部分をサイトに正しく設置するのに役立ちます。

後半は、ユーザーの JavaScript が無効な場合にフォールバックとして機能する iframe スニペットです。
Google は最高のパフォーマンスを得るために、このコードスニペットを各ページの <body> タグの直後に設置することを推奨しています。

理想的ではありませんが、これはコードのより下のほうに設置しても機能します。本プラグインは2番目のコード スニペットのコード配置オプションを提供します。

If your WordPress theme is compatible with the additions of WordPress 5.2 then this plugin will place this second code to the right place.
Users of the Genisis theme, GeneratePress theme, Elementor, Oxygen Builder and Beaver Builder Theme will also have this placed correctly.
To utilize this, set the compatibility mode in plugin options to off.

All other users can place this second code snippet using a custom PHP code (“Manually coded” option) or select the so called “Footer” option to
add the code lower in the code (it is not the recommended way but will work)

メディア再生イベント

(試験中)

あらゆる埋め込みメディアのユーザーインタラクションを追跡します。

  • YouTube
  • Vimeo
  • Soundcloud

DataLayer イベントは、メディアプレイヤーの読み込み、メディアの再生中、一時停止 / 停止、およびオプションでユーザーがメディア再生時間の10、20、30、…、90、100% に達したときに発火するよう選択できます。

埋め込みメディアの追跡は、WordPress 組み込みの oEmbed 機能はもちろん、他のほとんどのメディアプラグインやコピー & ペーストコードで設置するものに対応しています。ページ読み込み後にサイトに挿入されるプレイヤーには、現在非対応です。

スクロールトラッキング

訪問者がページトップから下までを、どのようにスクロールしたかを基準にタグを発火します。
例えば、「読者」(一定時間ページで過ごす) と「スクロールだけする人」(数秒以内にスクロールする人) を分けることが考えられます。これらのイベントを使用して、アナリティクスタグやリマーケティング / コンバージョンタグ (マイクロ コンバージョン用) を発火できます。

スクロールトラッキングは、以下の方々が開発したものを元にしています。

  • Nick Mihailovski
  • Thomas Baekdal
  • Avinash Kaushik
  • Joost de Valk
  • Eivind Savio
  • Justin Cutroni

タグ マネージャーのタグ、トリガー、変数のブラックリストとホワイトリスト

サイトのセキュリティ強化のため、タグ / トリガー / 変数をホワイトリストおよびブラックリスト登録するオプションがあります。
GTM の設定に関係なく、特定タグの発火や、特定の種類の変数の使用を防止できます。

GTM アカウントに関連付けられた Google アカウントがハッキングされると、攻撃者はホスティング サーバー上のコードにアクセスしなくても、サイト上でマルウェアを簡単に実行できてしまいます。カスタム HTML タグやカスタム JavaScript 変数をブラックリストに登録することで、タグ マネージャーコンテナを保護できます。

機能連携

複数の人気プラグインとの機能連携があります。今後さらに追加予定です !

  • Contact Form 7: フォームが何らかの結果 (メール送信、メール失敗、スパム検出、無効な入力)での送信時にイベントを発火
  • WooCommerce:
    • Implementation of GA4 E-commerce
    • プロモーションには非対応、なぜなら WooCommerce 本体にその機能は (まだ) ないので
    • 返金は非対応
    • Compatibility with High Performance Order Storage (HPOS)
  • AMP: ページの AMP バージョンに AMP コンテナを読み込む
  • Cookiebot: use automatic cookie blocking mode if needed
  • Google Consent Mode v2: fire the “default” command with specific consent flags to integrat with non-certified Consent Management Platforms (CMPs) and plugins.

サーバーコンテナ

If you are using a server side container
you can enter your custom domain name and custom path to load gtm.js from your there.

Exclude specific user roles from being tracked

You can set which user roles needs to be excluded from tracking when a user with that role visits the frontend. This will completely disable the container code for that user.

FAQ

○○ するには、どうすればいいですか

Tutorials for various Google Tag Manager settings and implementation are available on the plugin’s website:
https://gtm4wp.com/setup-gtm4wp-features

WooCommerce で、PayPal やサードパーティの決済サービスのトランザクションが Google アナリティクスで追跡できません

PayPal やその他サードパーティの決済代行サービスは、デフォルトで決済が成功してもユーザーをサイトにリダイレクトしません。
お客様をサイトに戻すようにしても、サンキューページに到達する前にブラウザを閉じる場合があります。これは、Google アナリティクスやその他のタグが呼び出されない可能性があることを意味します。

決済代行サービスの設定で、サイトへ戻る設定を有効化してください。これにより、お支払い後に簡単な情報ページを表示し、ユーザーをサイトにリダイレクトするようになり、トランザクション追跡の精度と頻度が向上します。

Purchase event is not tracked with WooCommerce

If you are using a 3rd party plugin that alters the default order received page in a way that does not utilize the integration hooks
of WooCommerce then this can happen. Either stop using this 3rd party plugin or ask them to better mimic the behavior of the
default order received page by supporting the woocommerce is_order_received_page and the woocommerce_thankyou actions and filters.

タグ / 変数クラスをブラックリスト登録するオプションがないのはなぜですか

Although Google recommends to blacklist tags and variables using classes, people struggle to know
which tags/variables gets affected. Therefore I opted for individual tags and variables rather than classes
on the blacklist tabs.

Regarding variables; ensure they are not part of any critical tags as blacklisting such variables will render said tags useless.

Google タグ マネージャーでスクロールイベントを追跡するには

Google タグ マネージャーは、パーセンテージまたはピクセルに基づく基本的なスクロール深度の追跡を標準でサポートしています。本プラグインでは、スクロールトラッキングイベントを追加し、ユーザーの意図やエンゲージメントを捉えることにより重点を置いています。

ルール定義で使用できるデータレイヤーイベントは5種類あります。

  • gtm4wp.reading.articleLoaded: コンテンツが読み込まれました
  • gtm4wp.reading.startReading: the visitor started to scroll. The timeToScroll dataLayer variable stores duration since the article loaded (in seconds)
  • gtm4wp.reading.contentBottom: 訪問者はコンテンツの最後 (ページではありません!) に到達しました。timeToScroll dataLayer 変数を更新
  • gtm4wp.reading.pagebottom: 訪問者がページの最後に到達しました。timeToScroll データレイヤー変数を更新
  • gtm4wp.reading.readerType: based on time spent since article loaded we determine whether the user is a ‘scanner’ or ‘reader’ and store this in the readerType dataLayer variable

Example use cases: using these events as triggers, you can fire Google Universal Analytics and/or Google Ads remarketing/conversion tags
to report micro conversions and/or to serve ads only to visitors who spend more time reading your content.

2024年3月26日
Since the "official" Google Analytics plugin for WooCommerce was broken by the developers and has been for weeks now I had to start looking for alternatives. I've used GTM4WP before as well and to be honest I'm not sure why I ever switched. Switching back to GTM4WP I can finally get conversions recorded again in my GA4! This is amazing! Why is this plugin even free? Would easily pay for it
2024年3月21日
The latest update broke tracking for myself and a lot of other people with no real response from developer. It also trashed my Analytics with some products showing numbers like this for added to cart: 100,000,000,000,001No longer recommended.
2024年3月7日
Hi everyone, There is a bug in the plugin. If I have a variable product, I have in the datalayer the parent ID Product into "item_id" and the variable ID Product in "id".This problem makes lose tracking ATC, ViewContent etc for the remarketing. Please can you help me?
2024年1月20日
support tickets are not answered, even if several people rise the problem. scrolling tracking does not work, it pukes an error in the console. the documentation is outdated (a lot). waste of time

変更履歴

1.20.1

  • Fix: do not load GTM container when OFF and console.log OFF. Thanks morvy
  • Fix: reverted a change where item_id in ecommerce data layer was converted to numeric type when the value was a numeric value. It will be kept as a string to preserve compatibility with other integrations.
  • Fix: JavaScript error when element ID not set correctly in scroll tracking
  • Changed: better normalize and hash user data with WooCommerce + orderData variable for enhanced conventions
  • Changed: PHP code optimization by hans2103

1.20

THE BIG CLEANUP RELEASE!

Lots of deprecated features removed.
The code of WooCommerce integration was cleaned and restructured, if you have any custom code that relies on GTM4WP internal data structure,
please update the plugin on a test version of your website before updating your live site!

  • Removed: deprecated Universal Analytics events for WooCommerce
  • Removed: deprecated filter GTM4WP_WPFILTER_AFTER_DATALAYER/gtm4wp_after_datalayer
  • Removed: deprecated filter GTM4WP_WPFILTER_ADDGLOBALVARS/gtm4wp_add_global_vars
  • Removed: deprecated feature that puts the ‘Do not track’ option of the browser into the data layer. It is a deprecated browser feature therefore removed from this plugin.
  • Removed: deprecated Google Optimize integration
  • Removed: deprecated constants GTM4WP_OPTION_BLACKLIST_MACRO_* and GTM4WP_OPTION_BLACKLIST_
  • Removed: deprecated WordPress filter GTM4WP_WPFILTER_GETTHEGTMTAG (deprecated in v1.16)
  • Changed: lots of internal function names and variable names changed, although is not recommended to depend on them, if you did, check your code
  • Changed: renamed WP filter gtm4wp_datalayer_on_pageload to gtm4wp_woocommerce_datalayer_on_pageload to better reflect when it is called.
  • Changed: orderData data layer variable in WooCommerce integration now includes keys to better support enhanced conversions setup:
    • orderData.customer.billing.first_name_hash
    • orderData.customer.billing.last_name_hash
    • orderData.customer.billing.phone_hash
  • Deprecated: orderData.customer.billing.emailhash, please update to use orderData.customer.billing.email_hash (with an underscore)
  • Added: stockstatus key into the product array of every ecommerce action. Returns the value of WP_Product->get_stock_status(). Thanks hans2103.
  • Added: integration with WebToffee GDPR Cookie Consent plugin. GTM4WP can not fire a GTM event when user consent changes or when a previously stored consent has been loaded.
  • Fixed: add_payment_info and add_shipping_info events were not fired during checkout submit when not fired before on the page.
  • Fixed: GTM4WP will only look for the user’s IP address in the REMOTE_ADDR server variable. You may enter a custom HTTP header instead in plugin settings.

1.19.1

  • Fixed: run additional checks when determing product category to prevent PHP errors in certain cases
  • Fixed: corrected Consent Mode flag names in admin page description texts

1.19

WARNING!
Universal Analytics / GA3 ecommerce events deprecated!
Please update your GTM setup so that it does not rely on any of the following GTM4WP events and the old ecommerce data layer:
* gtm4wp.productClickEEC
* gtm4wp.addProductToCartEEC
* gtm4wp.removeFromCartEEC
* gtm4wp.checkoutOptionEEC
* gtm4wp.checkoutStepEEC
* gtm4wp.changeDetailViewEEC
* gtm4wp.orderCompletedEEC

Instead of the above events, you can use the new GA4 ecommerce events (add_to_cart, purchase, etc.)
In the Universal Analytics GTM tag now you have an option to use the GA4 ecommerce data in the data layer.
If you are on GA360 and still collecting ecommerce data, you need to update your GTM setup to use that option firing on the GA4 ecommerce events.

  • Updated: WooCommerce integration now accepts the primary category selection of Yoast SEO and Rank Math SEO
  • Updated: use the gtm4wp_admin_page_capability filter to modify the capability needed to use the admin page (thanks emreerkan)
  • Fixed: price did not include the .00 postfix for integers in the add_to_cart event
  • Added: if needed, you can turn on clearing the ecommerce object before a new GA4 event is being pushed.
  • Added: support for Google Consent Mode default command for use cases where the consent management tool does not support it already

1.18.1

  • Fixed: PHP notice about Undefined variable: blocking_cookie

1.18

  • Updated: Deprecated Google Optimize integration as the tool is sunsetting in September 2023
  • Added: Create a cookie named block_gtm4wp_geoip after a specific user selected cookie preferences. Set the value to either “yes”, “true”, “on” or “1” and the GeoIP (and weather API) feature will be disabled for that particular user

1.17

  • Added: pagePostTerms data layer variable will now also include a meta key with post meta values that does not start with the _ character. This should allow to utilize custom fields added by plugins like Advanced Custom Fields.
  • Added: new filter: gtm4wp_post_meta_in_datalayer to limit which post meta should be present with with the previously added feature.
  • Added: ability to use a custom path for your server side GTM container. This makes GTM4WP compatible with services like stape.io

  • Fixed: JavaScript error in Chrome around event.target.closest calls, thanks pinkasey for the fix
  • Fixed: cast _ga_tracked variable as integer to make the identical operator work correctly, thanks Irfan for the suggestion
  • Fixed: removed extra code added in 1.14 that reloads pages in Safari in WooCommerce integration. It broke some sites.
  • Updated: required PHP version raised to 7.4. Currently, this is not a hard requirement but from now I could include updates that will require this PHP version.

1.16.1

  • Fixed: GTM ID not properly set in noscript tag (probably fixes some 403 errors with firewalls too)

1.16

This plugin version does not add or update any functionality.
After recent events, the code of the plugin has been checked line by line to see where additional security checks can be added.
The code has been formatted to better support readability for other programmers.

Deprecated:
* gtm4wp_get_the_gtm_tag hook and the corresponding GTM4WP_WPFILTER_GETTHEGTMTAG PHP constant.
* gtm4wp_add_global_vars hook and the corresponding GTM4WP_WPFILTER_ADDGLOBALVARS PHP constant. Use gtm4wp_add_global_vars_array / GTM4WP_WPFILTER_ADDGLOBALVARS_ARRAY instead.
* gtm4wp_after_datalayer hook and the corresponding GTM4WP_WPACTION_AFTER_DATALAYER PHP constant. Use gtm4wp_output_after_datalayer / GTM4WP_WPACTION_AFTER_DATALAYER instead witch can be used in the same way but it is an action instead of a filter.

Upcoming version will come with important changes:
* Minimum PHP version will be raised to 7.4: this will allow me to add even more safety measures
* Minimum supported WooCommerce version will be raised to WooCommerce 5.0: with this I can remove some very old compatibility code
* Deprecated features will be removed (aims to simplify code for better maintenance):
* Do not track flag of the browser added into data layer
* Legacy version of WooCommerce dynamic remarketing (using ecomm_ parameters)

The goal of all these changes aim to keep the plugin code clean and free from legacy solutions.

1.15.2

  • Fixed: Stored XSS when using the scroll tracking feature and an admin changes the content element ID into a JavaScript code.
  • Deprecated option: ‘do not track’ flag of the browser. This browser feature itself is now deprecated

Full scan of the plugin is also in works to fix any other possible XSS issue.

1.15.1

  • Fixed: JavaScript error with the newly added console logging to debug code placement issues
  • Fixed: possible XSS Vulnerability if Cloudflare country code option enabled. Thanks Guillaume Fortier
  • Fixed: proven XSS Vulnerability if adding site search into the data layer was enabled. Original report by not_stoppable. Root cause analysis by Cory Buecker.
  • Removed: deprecated feature Google Ads remarketing. This is the outdated, classic way using the google_tag_params variable.
  • Dev: removed PHP constant GTM4WP_WPFILTER_COMPILE_REMARKTING (related to removed Google Ads remarketing feature)
  • Dev: removed gtm4wp_compile_remarkering WordPress filter (related to removed Google Ads remarketing feature)

Note to plugin users: I sincerely appologize for the vulnerabilities. To make sure, such cases do not happen again,
the next version will be fully dedicacted to go through every peace of code and make sure proper data processing is happening in GTM4WP.

1.15

  • Added: pagePostType data layer variable will now return 404-error on 404 pages and search-results on search result pages
