Google Analytics not working #27

I've been trying to get google analytics to work but with no success. Here are the steps I have taken that should have apparently done the job:

  1. Add google tag id in config.toml: googleAnalytics = "UA-12345-2"

  2. Create a folder in themes/hugo-coder-portfolio/layout/partials named google

  3. Create a file in the folder created in step two called analytics.html and paste my google tracking code there

  4. Add this snippet to themes/hugo-coder-portfolio/layout/partials/header.html:

    {{ template "_internal/google_analytics.html" . }} {{ template "_internal/google_analytics_async.html" . }} {{ partials "google/analytics" . }}

  5. hugo serve -D

According to a few blog posts (https://gohugo.io/templates/internal/#use-the-google-analytics-template and https://www.soberkoder.com/google-analytics-hugo/ and https://bash-prompt.net/guides/custom-html-jugo/) this should have worked but did not.

Is there something that I am doing wrong?

Hei,

For anyone interested in this I solved this by following:

Create a new folder layouts in the root directory. Copy the contents of /themes/coder-portfolio/layouts/partials/header.html into /layouts/header.html.

Add the following code:

<head>
  {{ template "_internal/google_analytics.html" . }}
  {{ template "_internal/google_analytics_async.html" . }}
</head>

In your config.toml file add:

googleAnalytics = "<TRACKING CODE>"
