Google Analytics

[john w]

I need to confirm that if I want the Google Analytics to run I just add the tag info
After the head section of Desktop.Htm and Desktop_sm.htm

Do these page get overwritten when I publish or compile?


<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-3Cxxxxxx"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());

gtag('config', 'G-xxxxxxxx');
</script>

I just tested it does get overwritten in compile. How do I stop that behavior?

Did you copy it in the custom dir?

I did not, will that work as a solution? I was not sure whether these pages were static or changed as the app changed.

If that works it will be great.

Thanks

It will. They are built each time though, so when updating versions of inde you will have to revisit any changes made. You don't even need them listed in filelist.txt--they will automatically be copied from custom to your output folder.

That answers both questions.

Thanks
