# Wrong Property ID

 *  Resolved [caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/)
 * (@caldiatech)
 * [6 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wrong-property-id/)
 * We are using V1.2. Tried removing and re-adding GA in the site Kit.
 * Even though I have selected the correct property in the drop down on setup, it
   is generating the wrong UA-ID#.
 * Note that for now, we hard coded the correct ID (UA-25266110-1) into the theme
   because we realized we lost an entire months of data due to the plugin failing.
 * I don’t understand why the Site Kit doesn’t just allow the admin to plug in the
   actual UID instead of choosing from a drop down in an account…and then, after
   selecting the right property…it generates the WRONG ID! The site Kit is using
   UA-130569087-3 for some reason even though that is NOT the property selected 
   in setup.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fwrong-property-id%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) thanks for opening
   a topic and I’m sorry to hear about the issue you encountered.
 * 1) Were you using version 1.1.4 before the update to 1.2.0?
 * 2) Were you using Site Kit to insert the code snippet alone or another method
   to integrate the Analytics code before (theme, plugin, etc.)?

 * We were just using the Site Kit and yes, I think we did have the older version
   installed. It looks to me like around December 17th/18th 2019 is when it dropped
   the correct ID.
 * The ID that is currently showing is not one that I even know the property. I 
   have no idea what it is.
 * Again, right now I have the correct ID hard-coded into the WordPress theme.

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) thanks so much
   for this information. 1.1.4 was released around that time and there were a couple
   modifications to the Analytics feature. While we haven’t had other reports of
   this occurring, I’m curious if this was a factor.
 * It is odd that a wrong property you weren’t aware of was chosen. Are there other
   administrators for the website who have access to Site Kit and its settings with
   their respective Google Accounts?
 * Additionally, if you reset the Analytics connection (_Site Kit > Settings > Analytics
   > Edit > Disconnect Analytics from Site Kit_ then connect again under _Connect
   More Services_), does it still pull up the wrong property?
 * (if you could attempt it with and without your current snippet that would be 
   most helpful to know the outcome).

 * I am the only one with access to the backend. I did decouple the GA portion and
   then recouple it and it still pulls up an ID that I have never seen….I have no
   idea what property UA-130569087-3 belongs to. I did login to GA with a master
   login where we have access to some 75-100 different properties…but I selected
   the correct property from the corresponding account.
 * Again, for now, I have manually coded the correct ID directly into the site theme
   for now so we don’t lose anymore data.

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) thanks so much
   for your feedback. We’ll do some further investigation and follow up as soon 
   we have more information.

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) are you able to
   provide your [Site Health information](https://i.imgur.com/Rtkmsba.png)? Currently,
   we’re not able to replicate the issue, but perhaps that will help provide some
   insights on what is occurring.

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) just a follow 
   up that we’re still tracking your topic. We’ve release version 1.3.0. If the 
   issue still persists after the update, could you provide the information requested
   above? We’ll continue to look into this further.

 * We also get UA-130569087-3 on the site when we enable Site Kit. It’s not ours.

 * [@caldiatech](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caldiatech/) just circling 
   back that the tracking code referenced UA-130569087-3 is for Site Kit’s anonymous
   tracking that can be opted into or out anytime from the plugin’s settings. It
   does not impact the Analytics service connection that you configure and is only
   visible while you’re logged into your website. We’ll resolve your topic, but 
   feel free to open a new topic with any further questions.

 * My site has the exact same GA code on it from this plugin – UA-130569087-3. Seems
   like a larger issue needs to be resolved vs these site-by-site fix tickets. What
   is causing this on so many sites?

 * Ok, saw the last message – all set. This is a strange way for Google to track
   things. You’ll get a lot of webmasters wondering why some random GA code is on
   their website

 * I’m having the same issue. I will be forced to connect my Google Analytics account
   outside of Site Kit (Currently on 1.6.0) because the plugin is pulling the wrong
   profile and not allowing me to choose the correct one. It’s disappointing that
   there’s no resolution even after so many people are having the same problem.
