Tell us what you are trying to do? I would like to get language information in my GA4 analytics. I use the variable appended to the url as my language switcher - lang=pt-br etc.
I remember seeing an article on your site about this exact issue but I can no longer find it. It had PHP code that needed to be added and then instructions about the GA4 dimension. Could you please help me?
Hi there - Thanks for your response, however, the links you sent are old and are not for GA4 which collects very differently. is there anyway that this would work instead - this is to create an event called language_viewed?
function track_language_in_ga4() {
if (function_exists('gtag')) {
// Get the language parameter from the URL
$language = isset($_GET['lang']) ? sanitize_text_field($_GET['lang']) : 'en';
?>
<script>
gtag('event', 'language_viewed', {
'language': '<?php echo $language; ?>'
});
</script>
<?php
}
}
add_action('wp_head', 'track_language_in_ga4');
Do you have information specific for GA4 (not in a woocommerce store)?
From my side, as I am not sure exactly how are you implementing it, I suggest either using if method or using 2 different tags for each language. If you need to get the current language you can also use our hook wpml_current_language.
