I'm having trouble setting up Google Analytics in Webflow. I followed the instructions and used the measurement stream ID, but it's not working. Can you help me troubleshoot?

Certainly! If you are having trouble setting up Google Analytics in Webflow and it's not working despite following the instructions and using the measurement stream ID, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can take:

1. Double-check your setup: First, make sure you have followed the setup instructions correctly. Go through the process again and confirm that you have copied the measurement stream ID accurately.

2. Clear cache and refresh: Clear your browser cache and refresh the page where you have added the Google Analytics code. Sometimes, cached versions of your website can prevent the tracking code from working properly.

3. Test on a different browser: Try accessing your website on a different browser or device. This will help determine whether the issue is specific to your current browser or if it's a broader problem.

4. Check for errors in code implementation: Review the code implementation in your Webflow project. Make sure you have added the code in the correct location, such as the project settings or page settings. Double-check for any syntax errors or missing characters in the code.

5. Test in Google Tag Assistant: Install the Google Tag Assistant browser extension and enable it. Visit your website and see if the tag assistant detects the Google Analytics tracking code. This tool will provide insights into any potential issues with the code installation.

6. Verify tracking status in Google Analytics: Log in to your Google Analytics account and navigate to the "Realtime" section. Open your website in a separate browser and see if your activity is being tracked in real-time. If the data appears in the Realtime report, it means your setup is correct, and you may need to wait a little longer for data to populate in standard reports.

7. Double-check your Google Analytics account setup: Make sure you have a valid Google Analytics property created and associated with the correct website. Verify that the measurement stream ID you used is associated with the correct property.

If you have completed all these steps and are still unable to get Google Analytics to work, reach out to the Webflow support team or consult the Webflow community forums for further assistance. They can examine your specific setup and provide guidance tailored to your situation.
