Includes:

  • Enable/disable tracking (admin-controlled)
  • GA4 and/or GTM IDs in one place
  • Consent-friendly behavior (recommended)
  • Option to exclude logged-in users (cleaner metrics)

Tip: Use a cookie/consent banner and enable tracking only when your site is ready.

Benefits

Built for teams that want a clean analytics integration with clear communication.

Fast setup

Configure from the WordPress dashboard — no theme file edits required.

Transparent control

Tracking is explicitly enabled by the admin — not silently on by default.

Lightweight

Designed to integrate cleanly with WordPress, without extra dependencies.

Consent-friendly

Supports a consent-first workflow. We recommend using a cookie/consent banner.

Cleaner reporting

Option to exclude logged-in users to avoid internal traffic in your metrics.

Transparency & external services

This plugin can load third-party scripts (Google) only when enabled by the admin and aligned with your consent configuration.

Google Analytics 4

Used for site analytics and reporting, depending on the configuration chosen by the site owner.

Terms: policies.google.com/terms
Privacy: policies.google.com/privacy

Google Tag Manager

Lets you manage tracking tags from a central container. Data collection depends on the tags configured by the site owner.

Terms: policies.google.com/terms
Privacy: policies.google.com/privacy

When are these services loaded?

Only when the administrator enables tracking in the plugin settings and your site’s consent setup allows it. We recommend using a cookie/consent banner to meet your local privacy requirements.

Setup

Get it running in minutes.

Steps

  1. Upload the plugin ZIP in WordPress (Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin).
  2. Activate it.
  3. Go to Settings → ZDAnalytics Connector.
  4. Enter your GA4 ID and/or GTM ID (as needed).
  5. Enable tracking when your consent workflow is ready.

Recommendation

For best practice, set up a consent banner/manager first, then enable tracking accordingly.

Tip: Exclude logged-in users to keep your analytics cleaner if your team browses the site frequently.

FAQ

Short and clear answers.

Does it track visitors by default?

No. Tracking is enabled explicitly by the site administrator in the plugin settings.

Can I use only GA4 or only GTM?

Yes. Enable one or the other depending on your needs.

How does consent work?

We recommend using a cookie/consent banner and enabling tracking according to that workflow.
