The Only Google Analytics AND Global site tag setup tool that works
This is my first plugin review and it fully deserves the 5 stars - why? It's extremely simple to use, not bloated, does not spy on your data and it does exactly what it promises - you just add your UA code for Google Analytics and then in advanced configuration your Global site tag, on your "Thank you" page you manually add the "Event snippet" and there your go - you're all set! Look no further - this is the plugin for Analytics and Conversions tracking your were looking for.

Very simple to setup, worked fine
Super easy to install and setup. A small suggestion would be to add the Settings hyperlink on the plugin in the Wordpress plugins list, rather than trying to locate the new Plugin menu on the left sidebar in Wordpress.
