 * Hello
 * I was wondering if/when ‘Google Analytics for WordPress’ was going to add in 
   support/functionality for the new ‘Universal Analytics’ option.
 * Thanks!

 * There is a plugin with Universal Analytics support:

 * And a +1 from me – the link to the other plugin just allows code to be dropped
   on the page header. I’m sure most of us would rather have all teh functionality
   of the Google Analytics plugin

 * The fact that Universal Analytics is not supported is a crying shame. Definitely
   decreased my loyalty to Yoast. I am using NK Google Analytics.

 * Great plugin, but yes, Universal Analytics is here. +1 to this request.

 * You can enable support for Remarketing–which should provide Demographics data–
   by checking the box in settings for “Host ga.js locally”, and entering this into
   the input:

 * …or if you’re running your site over https…

 * My loyalty hasn’t wavered one bit for Yoast, but I would like to see an option
   for Universal Analytics at some point.

 * They won’t answer questions about free plugins via email so apparently this is
   our only way of contacting them. Right now the website says they currently do
   not support it, but it says nothing about their plans. If there is no response
   from an author of the plugin in a few days I’m going to take that as not having
   plans to support it in the near future and switch to a new plugin.
