 * Thank you, Thomas, for a great plugin! I’ve successfully installed and connected
   your plugin, GTM, GA and our website.
 * I’m trying to track the performance of certain content categories versus others.
   I’ve enabled the posttypes options under “Basic Data.” I’m stumped about where
   to go now to start connecting categories to goals. Any good resources or tips
   you can point me to?
 * Many thanks in advance!

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for using my plugin, I am really happy to have you as a user!
 * First of all you should make yourself comfortable with the concept of data layer
   and data layer variables:
    [https://developers.google.com/tag-manager/devguide](https://developers.google.com/tag-manager/devguide)
 * My plugin adds a datalayer variable named _pagePostType_ when you enable that
   option. You can read the value using a ‘Data Layer Variable’ type variable in
   GTM. After this, you can add this new variable for example in the content grouping
   option of a GA tag.
 * You can use the ‘Group by Tracking Code’ solution described here:

 * Does this help you?
