How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

    Every now and then, plugins cause problems after updates requiring you to work with developers to fix bugs – but this one has worked reliably for years.

    It’s not working. Instead of this I have to paste script into header of page to have GA4 live again. I spend 4 days with it and it’s not working at all. It was a waste of my time. This topic was modified 6 months ago by tomaszubrik.

    After years of using GTM4WP I started having troubles tracking the purchase events of my woocommerce. GTM Kit solved every issue in 5 minutes. It’s straightforward to set up. It also imports settings from GTM4WP at first activation, and finally, all my e-commerce events are tracked properly.

    I have been using gtm4wp for years and didn’t think I would find anything better. But I did. And with great support. It also fixed the issue with Bricks Builder right away. It looks really great.
