 * hi,
    for universal analytics tracking code just edit the file “googleanalytics/
   googleanalytics.php”, and replace the old tracking code in function “googleanalytics()”
   with this code:
 *     ```
       <script>
         (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
         (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
         m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
         })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');
   
         ga('create', '<?php echo $web_property_id; ?>', '<?php echo str_replace('www.','',$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']); ?>');
         ga('send', 'pageview');
   
       </script>
       ```
   
 * tnx!

 * Howdy,
    Is this the function where I need to replace the code and after replacing
   the code will it look like this? Thanks!
 * **Original**
 * function googleanalytics() {
    $web_property_id = get_option(‘web_property_id’);?
   >
 * **New**
 * function googleanalytics()
    <script> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[‘GoogleAnalyticsObject’]
   =r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){ (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();
   a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.
   insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,’script’,’//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.
   js’,’ga’);
 *  ga(‘create’, ‘<?php echo $web_property_id; ?>’, ‘<?php echo str_replace(‘www.’,”,
   $_SERVER[‘SERVER_NAME’]); ?>’);
    ga(‘send’, ‘pageview’); </script>
 * ?>
