Google Analytics changes?

Did something changed regarding how the theme implements the Google Analytics or how tracking works?

My numbers went terribly low in the best 2 weeks. In order to do a “test”, I created a link via goo.gl to one of my posts and shared it on social media.

After one day, goo.gl showed over 250 people clicking on my link (thus opening my website), however, Google Analytics shows only 13 people accessed the website’s page.

That’s not a different of 10-20 users, but a difference of almost 200%.

(Yes, I took the “amp” page into consideration, there were 20 more there… however far away from the 250 goo.gl shows)

Hello,

We have not changed anything regarding the analytics implementation. Our theme does not alter the readings It just ads the code in header.php in the head tag. No other modification is done. You can even do this manually and not use the theme analytics field at all. That way the theme will have 0 influence over the analytics tracking.

Thank you!
