Title: Universal Analytics Support Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Universal Analytics Support * [Christiaan Conover](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cconover/) * (@cconover) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/) * Is adding support for [Universal Analytics](https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/upgrade/?hl=en_US) on the roadmap? Since apparently this will be a forced change by Google and appears to require new tracking code, it seems like something that will need to be addressed. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/) Viewing 13 replies - 31 through 43 (of 43 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/page/2/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/?output_format=md) [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/page/2/?output_format=md) 3 * [soccerkingpilot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/soccerkingpilot/) * (@soccerkingpilot) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/page/3/#post-4644707) * What they said…looking forward to the added features of this change. * [lamnt](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lamnt/) * (@lamnt) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/page/3/#post-4644708) * Anybody know the link to github of this plugin? I think we can update class_frontend. php first to update ga.js to universal analytics. And i hope can push it on github for everyone can try this. * [soccerkingpilot](https://wordpress.org/support/users/soccerkingpilot/) * (@soccerkingpilot) * [11 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/universal-analytics-support/page/3/#post-4644712) * I found this link today.
