GA Opt-In / Hook

Resolved petschko

Hey,

my Company want to opt-in people to Google-Analytics. This means it should be disabled by default and just become active when the user click on “accept”, else it should be disabled.

Is there a hook or a great method to disable it and just enable it then?

PS: I don’t want to opt-out (enabled by default) people, it’s important to have an opt-in (Disabled by default)

Thank you for this great plugin so far ^^

Hi there @petschko

I don’t know of any way to have opt-out by default for Google Analytics. If this is available via their service then we can look into this but I don’t this that is an option.

I also haven’t seen this as an option for any service.

Thanks,

It would just help if there is a hook, which I can remove (Your function, which includes the Google-Javascript Code)

Then I could just remove the call of the function, which includes the Javascript code to the head, else it would not removed.

Something like that:
```
function gaOptIn() {
    if(! userAllowGA()) // Function declared by me, returns true or false
    // remove_action(/* stuff to remove your function */);
}
```

Hi @petschko

If you can provide documentation to code directly from the Google Analytics team, we can take a look at this but as I mentioned, I’ve not see something like this implemented at all and cannot find anything readily online.

Thanks,

May I didn’t wrote what I want.

I don’t want to change the Google-JS-Code at all!

Your Plugin just inplements the Javascript code in the HTML-Header via PHP, I want to know if there is a hook (Serverside – PHP), where I can stop your PHP function from implementing the JS-Code (Analaytics) to the HTML-Head.

Thanks for the replies so far

Update:
I took a look by myself into your Plugins-Code and found myself a solution (if anyone cares^^)

I personally use the Cookie Notice from dFactory-Plugin, its super easy to see with php if the user want to accept cookies.

You have just to add this tiny sniped to your functions.php:
```
if(class_exists('WC_Google_Analytics_Integration')) {
	if(! cn_cookies_accepted()) // returns false when user deny cookies (or not defined if he want) -> Opt in
		remove_filter('woocommerce_integrations', array(WC_Google_Analytics_Integration::get_instance(), 'add_integration'), 10);
}
```
If you want an other control function, you can also replace “cn_cookies_accepted” with your function
