You can search for plugins that will focus on that specifically here: [https://wordpress.org/search/google+analytics+youtube](https://wordpress.org/search/google+analytics+youtube) * I’m marking this topic as resolved as it’s not related to this plugin. * Normally, enabling standard tracking should log some more information on your site: * Link to image: [http://cld.wthms.co/7zGo8J](http://cld.wthms.co/7zGo8J) * Thread Starter [Ricardo Franco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chefpanda123/) * (@chefpanda123) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10329333) * Hi [@jobthomas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/), * What I meant was, I want to measure how many people click on the “play” video on my website. * May I track with an event? * Bets regards, Ricardo * Plugin Support [Job a11n](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/) * (@jobthomas) * Automattic Happiness Engineer * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10336515) * Hi [@chefpanda123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chefpanda123/), that’s something you can’t track with this plugin. For that you’d just need to work with general GA tracking. This plugin only focuses on eCommerce events. * This would be a good place to start (but there are definitely other options available too): [https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/google+analytics/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/google+analytics/) * Thread Starter [Ricardo Franco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chefpanda123/) * (@chefpanda123) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10338418) * Hi [@jobthomas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/) * Thanks for the tip. For installing Google Optimize, it´s a best practice to install it on the same way Google Analytics is installed. * As I´m using this plugin, what do you recommend me to do? Instal the Google Optimize snippet by Google Tag Manager or hard-coded? * Best regards, Ricardo * Plugin Support [Job a11n](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/) * (@jobthomas) * Automattic Happiness Engineer * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10340047) * Hey [@chefpanda123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chefpanda123/) – that depends on what you prefer. If you’re comfortable with hard-coding, you can use that option, but many people prefer to use a snippet or even a plugin. * Thread Starter [Ricardo Franco](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chefpanda123/) * (@chefpanda123) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10346114) * Hi [@jobthomas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/), * As i´m using WooCommerce Google Analytics Integration plugin for GA, that means that my **GA tracking code is hard-coded**, right? * If so, the best practice says it´s better to install the Google Optimize snippet in the same GA is installed, and so I should hard-code Google Optimize snippet 🙂 * Look forward to hear back from you. * Best regards, Ricardo * Plugin Support [Job a11n](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jobthomas/) * (@jobthomas) * Automattic Happiness Engineer * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-17/#post-10348388) * From our docs: * > Enable Standard Tracking: Check this box to add basic website tracking. This > is needed if WooCommerce Google Analytics Integration is the only Google Analytics > plugin on your site. If you are using another Google Analytics plugin for your > site, leave this box unchecked. * [https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/google-analytics-integration/](https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/google-analytics-integration/) * I’ve had a look at the code of our plugin and there’s no video tracking event hardcoded there. So this means you’ll have to find another solution.
