 * hi 
   Using insert head for Google Anaytics, is it best to activate ‘Only run on
   site front end’ rather than ‘run everywhere’
 * So Admin users are not tracked? Or am I wrong and there is other tracking that
   might be missed without ‘Run everywhere’?
 * Many thanks in advance

 * Hi [@wood1e](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wood1e/),
 * Can you provide an example of the full snippet you’re using?

 * Hey [@wood1e](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wood1e/),
 * Using Code Snippets, enter the HTML code as noted [here](https://prnt.sc/Y4KYnKN9kcxc)
   and [here](https://prnt.sc/f0Qjlb9RlvuY). Both backend and frontend users will
   be tracked.
 * For more granularity, try the plugin “[Analytify](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-analytify/).”
   It’s free and allows you to further customize your tracking needs. Oh, and it’s
   way better than MonsterInsights – especially when you also activate their sister
   plugin “[Analyfity Dashboard Widget](https://wordpress.org/plugins/analytify-analytics-dashboard-widget/).”
   With Analytify, you won’t need to use Code Snippets.
 * Please consider closing this topic as “Resolved” once you implement the above.
 * Cheers!

 * Hey [@wood1e](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wood1e/),
 * No, wrong tab. Use the plugin’s HTML tab to enter your GA tracking code. Look
   at the screenshots we shared.

 * Oh right, I was unaware whenever I last checked online to find out how to insert
   Tracking Code using Code Snippets the help documents always stated that the <
   php insert> needed to be used. 
   Thanks
