Hey @able-island-14078,
Universal Analytics certainly work, but we can try inserting the GA4 script to see how it goes. I can’t guarantee it will work, but we can certainly try.

I don’t see why it wouldn’t. I would probably try to use GA4 first.

My early reading on GA4 is that it’s very reliant on creating events and putting them throughout your site/app. Some reading suggests that it doesn’t as easily/clearly break out things like page views compared to UA.
I guess this begs another question, which is around what we can/can’t implement from a tracking perspective in Stacker. It’s basically just page view tracking, right? Can’t put events on buttons, etc.

From my understanding, page views don’t work properly anyway using Stacker, because it’s a SPA and doesn’t do a full page refresh between page transitions.
And GA4 does automatically catch a lot of other stuff like clicks on links and such, which are a pain to configure on GA3.
If you want to go deeper into tracking, you must use GTM, which will load GA, and on GTM you can define advanced tracking.

@sticky-night-20812, any ideas on how to avoid having multiple page_view event fires when there is nothing happening on the site? I was thinking if that second checkbox would help..
