Title: error: “invalid module slug” Last modified: August 9, 2021 --- # error: “invalid module slug” * Resolved [surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/) * (@surferspbrass) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/) * I keep getting an error: “invalid module slug” which I presume affects the effectiveness of google search?

ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14752351) * Many thanks for sharing the additional information. There doesn’t seem to be anything out of the ordinary in relation to your setup, although your Site Health information reports a Site Kit placed Analytics snippet despite a “Global Site Tag Tracking plugin” comment above your snippet when checking your sites source code. * So we can troubleshoot this further can you follow the steps below and inform me if the same issue persists? 1. Login to your site from a Chrome browser [incognito window](https://i.imgur.com/ALzgiHp.png) 2. Install and activate the [Health Check & Troubleshooting](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/) plugin. 3. Navigate to “Plugins > Health Check & Troubleshooting > Troubleshoot”. 4. From the same screen click on the “Available Plugins” tab at the top right and then click on the “Enable” option next to “Site Kit by Google” 5. Check for the issue once more. 6. If the same occurs please disconnect the Analytics module so we can check if the same issue occurs with only the Search Console module active * Let me know how you get on with the above. The mentioned steps can help rule out plugin, browser or theme related conflicts. * Thread Starter [surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/) * (@surferspbrass) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14755529) * After carrying out your instructions, the same error remains. I am not sure how to ‘disconnect Analytics Module’. By ‘module’ do you mean plugin? After clicking Site Kit > Analytics, it tells me that I haven’t completed the analytics activation. Then on clicking ‘Complete Setup’ it shows “Error: Invalid module slug” (twice).“ An existing Universal tag was found on your site with the ID UA-xxxxxxxx-4”. I have installed this tag using the plugin “Global Site Tag Tracking” in accordance with my Google Search account. Might there be some sort of conflict happening? When I click on ‘Search Module’ same thing – ‘Invalid Module Slug’. What I have found is that the page source shows a different tracking ID to the correct google Search console tracking ID, and I cannot seem to be able to find it when searching my file manager! I do not know how to change this. The following is the line of code taken from the page source with the ID at the end… var _googlesitekitBaseData = {“homeURL”:”https:\/\/www.yourtopdog.com.au\/”,”referenceSiteURL”:”https:\/\/ www.yourtopdog.com.au\/”,”userIDHash”:”b50de25169bbbe44fd85945af5569456″,”adminURL”:” https:\/\/www.yourtopdog.com.au\/wp-admin\/”,”assetsURL”:”https:\/\/www.yourtopdog. com.au\/wp-content\/plugins\/google-site-kit\/dist\/assets\/”,”blogPrefix”:”wp_”,” ampMode”:”secondary”,”isNetworkMode”:false,”timezone”:”Australia\/Brisbane”,” siteName”:”YourTopDog”,”enabledFeatures”:[“ga4setup”,”userFeedback”],”webStoriesActive”: false,”isOwner”:true,”isFirstAdmin”:true,”splashURL”:”https:\/\/www.yourtopdog. com.au\/wp-admin\/admin.php?page=googlesitekit-splash”,”proxySetupURL”:”https:\/\/ www.yourtopdog.com.au\/wp-admin\/index.php?action=googlesitekit_proxy_setup&nonce =8152876720″,”proxyPermissionsURL”:”https:\/\/www.yourtopdog.com.au\/wp-admin\/ index.php?action=googlesitekit_proxy_permissions&nonce=f022198059″,”usingProxy”: true,”wpVersion”:{“version”:”5.8″,”major”:5,”minor”:8},”trackingAllowed”:false,” trackingEnabled”:false,”trackingID”:”UA-130569087-3″} Is this any help? * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14756516) * Many thanks for sharing the additional insights, very useful. While I’ll check for any possible conflict using the same “Global Site Tag Tracking plugin” can you perform the steps below and inform me if you’re able to proceed? 1. [Reset Site Kit](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j4v4vwqlqhuJBWzlcc9GX6fgjVh6en1j/view?usp=sharing)_( Site Kit > Settings > Admin Settings > Reset Site Kit)_ 2. Temporarily deactivate the “Global Site Tag Tracking plugin” 3. Setup Site Kit once more, while also connecting the Analtyics module * Note that when resetting Site Kit all connected services must be connected once more, for all connected users. As you’re the only connected user at the time of sharing your Site Health information this shouldn’t be an issue. * I’ve also created the below GitHub issue as this isn’t something we’ve encountered previously in the support forums. [https://github.com/google/site-kit-wp/issues/3825](https://github.com/google/site-kit-wp/issues/3825) * Let me know how you get on anyway, and thanks for your persistence with this. Hopefully we’ll be able to get you connected with all your Site Kit dashboards working as expected. * Thread Starter [surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/) * (@surferspbrass) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14759524) * I had already reset Site Kit and deactivated “Global Site Tag Tracking” to no avail. * I have also tried purging the cache, and also updated Site Kit to 1.38.1. * The error remains. * I still don’t know what you mean by “connecting/disconnecting the analytics module”? How do I do this? When I click on the Analytics link under Site Kit in the left hand column I just get the following: * Error: Invalid module slug. Error: Invalid module slug.

Please follow the steps below: 1. [Disconnect the Analytics module](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ns7tNIqOUBkmrEpE6ldpIEPFhTCPmyqD/view?usp=sharing) 2. Check for any dashboard errors on your primary Site Kit dashboard 3. Deactivate the “_Global Site Tag Tracking plugin_” – which currently placed your Analytics tracking ID 4. Connect the Analytics module within Site Kit once more before checking your Site Kit dashboard once again * After performing the above please whether you encounter any dashboard errors. If you do see any dashboard errors please share your [Site Health information](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lhjns2K7c0Ny7ME4gxTcsnYtNUtcMr8BvFpPQi23Y1E/) once more. This will show that the Analytics snippet has been placed via Site Kit while also showing your other Analytics plugin as deactivated. * If the same issue occurs we’ll check your _“siteground-optimizer-assets”_ feature and other plugins. From inspecting your sites source code and using Chromes developer tools it looks like you may have some optimization features which may be impacting your Site Kit dashboard. While typically the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin steps you already performed can help rule out such conflicts we can perform additional checks after we know on the above. * Thread Starter [surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/) * (@surferspbrass) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14766704) * After disabling analytics module, the dashboard overview shows: Search Funnel( In red box) Data Error in Search Console – Invalid module slug.

(In blue) Set Up Analytics. * Acquisition (In red box) Data Error in Search Console – Invalid module slug. * Setting up Analytics just results in another message in red – Error: Invalid module slug – while also making reference to the availability of Google Analytics 4 (GA4). * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14771829) * Many thanks for sharing the additional insights. I’ll check this with the team and report back to you here with any additional information. Feel free to comment in on the [related GitHub issue](https://github.com/google/site-kit-wp/issues/3825) or share your GitHub ID if you’d like us to communicate from there. * I’ve also added some additional checks you may wish to perform in the meantime to that GitHub issue. This is the first such instance of this particular notice so I don’t want to ask you to perform additional request given that I’m unsure of any possible cause or solution at present. * I’ll hopefully have an update for you at some stage early this week, after talkin with the team on your case. * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14775618) * Thanks for your patience on this. I’ve checked with the team and it’s possible there may be some server configurations resulting in these errors, which are set to appear in the case whereby a requested module doesn’t exist. * Can you try and [reset the plugin](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1j4v4vwqlqhuJBWzlcc9GX6fgjVh6en1j/view?usp=sharing)( _Site Kit > Settings > Admin Settings > Reset Site Kit_) and check whether the same notice appears after setting up once more? Note that after resetting Site Kit you’ll need to connect all services once more. As you’re the only connected user this won’t impact any other administrators. * Should you encounter the same error please share the following information: 1. Was Site Kit working for you previously, on this site or any other site on the same hosting platform? You can setup another WordPress install to check if you’ve never attempted setup previously. 2. Can you share any [XHR response](https://drive.google.com/file/d/19sl0VBsTwdGhPrEIAkt9MDjWgKLex2hG/view?usp=sharing) from the same screen where this error occurs? Please don’t share your XHR details within this support topic, you can share via the same form previously used. This will provide some insights which we can investigate the failure point further. * Let me know if you have any questions with the above. * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14799900) * Hi [@surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/), * Just following up with you to check whether the issue persists? If so can you share the details above and we’d be happy to look into this further. * Thread Starter [surferspbrass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/surferspbrass/) * (@surferspbrass) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14805975) * Hi James * I have done everything you suggested (some even beforehand) and I have decided that I have spent too much of my time trying to rectify this problem. * Therefore I have chosen to de-activate and uninstall the plug-in(s) as there are other options now in place and running smoothly. * I appreciate all the time you have allotted to this thread. * Kind regards * Trevor * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-invalid-module-slug/#post-14807984) * Hi Trevor, * Sorry to hear that. Appreciate also the checks you’ve performed, and understand your preference to no longer use Site Kit. If you do decide to revisit Site Kit going forward I’d be happy to bring your case up with the team once more. It’s not something we’ve encountered previously. * Best of luck with the site going forward.
