Beschreibung
Simple Plugin for Google Analytics is an unofficial WordPress plugin for Google Analytics, with Cookiebot integration.
Settings
Even though this is a really simple plugin, there are settings to:
- Anonymize IPs
- Force SSL
- Ignore administrators
- Choose the location of the script tag (either in
<head>or<body>)
Cookiebot integration
If you have installed (and activated) the Cookiebot WordPress plugin, then “Simple Plugin for Google Analytics” will automatically include the Google Analytics code only if the user has given consent for “statistics” cookies. Also, it will disable advertising features (the allow_ad_personalization_signals option of gtag.js) unless the user has given consent for “marketing” cookies.

FAQ
- How is this different from all the other Google Analytics plugins?
-
It’s really simple and I mean really simple. Oh, and it works with Cookiebot.
- Is this GDPR compliant?
-
While no single plugin can guarantee 100% GDPR compliance in WordPress, here’s what I did with this plugin:
- There is a setting to anonymize IPs
- There is a setting to force SSL

Other than that, IANAL (I am not a lawyer) and I cannot guarantee 100% GDPR compliance.
