 * (((Hi, I read the pinned post about how to get support for the Lite version of
   the plugin but I think it’s outdated as the link for lite support just brings
   me back here. So I’ll post this hoping someone at MI will see it.)))
 * Anyway, in the event advice is given here, we are using Termageddon + Usercentrics
   and their support asked us if we could add **type=”text/javascript”** to our 
   Google Analytics code, saying:
 * “within your Google Analytics embed code, just after “<script “, can you add 
   the following: **type=”text/javascript”**? This will help ensure that particular
   script is more automatically controlled by Usercentrics”
 * Is there any way to do this, or if not, can that be added for a future release?
 * Thanks for any assistance.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fadd-typetext-javascript-to-monster-insights-code%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * We can definitely look at that for a future release, however in the meantime,
   if you need to force text/javascript you can do so using our filter on the default
   attributes. We would recommend running this on your site using a snippet plugin
   like WPCode:
 * function ensure_script_type_attribute( $attributes ) {
    $attributes[‘type’] =‘
   text/javascript’; return $attributes;}add_filter( ‘monsterinsights_tracking_analytics_script_attributes’,‘
   ensure_script_type_attribute’ );

 * Hi Chris thanks for the quick response. We are using a plugin that allows for
   creation of snippets that you then add as a shortcode. I could create that snippet
   but then what would I do with it exactly/where would I add it?
 * Thanks
