 * Even with the option to not track logged in users I am still getting page_view
   events for /wp-admin/ page visits.
 * I need a way to filter these out as there is no need for these

 * Hi [@coldrealms65](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coldrealms65/), thanks
   for reaching out. I’d be happy to help you with this. The exclude Analytics for
   all logged-in users feature should exclude Analytics tracking to your website
   when any WordPress user is logged into the site viewing any web pages.
 * If you are seeing these users being tracked while logged in on your [Analytics realtime report](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/9271392?hl=en)
   could you please share a recording of this so we can see this happening and we
   can help to determine why this may be happening.
 * Could you also share your[ Site Health information](https://i.imgur.com/Rtkmsba.png).
   You can[ use this form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lhjns2K7c0Ny7ME4gxTcsnYtNUtcMr8BvFpPQi23Y1E/)
   to share privately if preferred. There are a number of Analytics filters available
   but before looking at these, the information above would help us to better understand
   the issue and if a filter is required for you. Let me know if you have any questions
   in the meantime.

 * Without having time to take a video it is pretty simple to replicate. If I as
   the admin visit back-end page the results are shown in the Realtime analytics.
   
   I visited the following pages:
 * /wp-admin/edit-tags.php
 * /wp-admin/update-core.php
 * And then when I view the realtime I see those pages pop up in the list.
 * I’ll post my site health via the form you provided.

 * [@coldrealms65](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coldrealms65/) Thanks for
   sharing the information and interesting that those pageviews are being tracked
   and that you can see them in your realtime Analytics.
 * I can see that you have a large number of third-party plugins active on your 
   site so perhaps there’s a conflict originating from one of these preventing these
   pageviews from being excluded.
 * You could try testing this on a temporary WordPress test site to see if you encounter
   the same with just the Site Kit plugin active with a new Analytics property. 
   You can go to [this URL](https://tastewp.com/create/NMS/8.0/6.8/google-site-kit/twentytwenty?ni=true&redirect=admin.php%3Fpage%3Dgooglesitekit-splash)
   which will create atest site for you to use with Site Kit pre-installed. Simply,
   set up Site Kit and connected Analytics with a new property, make sure the exclude
   all logged-in users option is enabled and check this in your realtime Aanlytics
   report as you did with your site.
 * If you don’t see the same then this points to an issue with something in your
   setup and likely a conflict as mentioned above. Let me know how you get on with
   this.

 * Tested with only your plugin active and same result.
 * What server level items could cause this?

 * Turns out it wasn’t you at all, it was a jr dev adding a cloudflare zaraz injection
   of the tag bypassing…everything.
 * With a case like this I should have known to look at the resulting tag source.

   confirming this and glad you were able to find the cause.
