<p>Send the Easy Digital Downloads events to Google Analytics (GA4). I tried a few plugins in the past to do this, but it never really worked for me, so I decided to work on my own. It works perfectly in my case but you might encounter issues with your setup; in this case, let’s make it better together 🙂</p>
<h3>Events</h3>
<ul>
<li>It currently supports ‘view_item’, ‘add_to_cart’, ‘removed_from_cart’, ‘begin_checkout’ and ‘purchase’.</li>
<li>The ‘view_item’ event is fired when the different options of prices are being displayed (only once per visitor/session and per download). I prevent the plugin from sending the ‘view_item’ event more than once per download, even though the page is reloaded.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Important Remarks</h3>
<ul>
<li>In my case, with EDD, the ‘add_to_cart’ and ‘begin_checkout’ happen at the same time, because I don’t use Add To Cart, but directly a Purchase button. I haven’t tested this plugin with Add To Cart.</li>
<li>My implementation is based on my usage and therefore open to ideas, so don’t hesitate to reach me!</li>
</ul>


eCommerce Analytics for Easy Digital Downloads

Sorry to submit my own rating, but this kind of plugin is not used by so many users, and I doubt it will have many downloads.

I made this for myself, it works perfectly, and I would be happy if you could try it too.

It any issue, it would be also great if we could debug together, and make it even better.

That said, in all my cases, it's working perfectly! I am using it with Meow Analytics (to insert the GA4 code), and the latest versions of EDD and all the related plugins (as August 2022).

Simply, eCommerce Analytics for EDD!

Send the Easy Digital Downloads events to Google Analytics (GA4).

<p>This plugin requires <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-digital-downloads/" title="Easy Digital Downloads" rel="ugc">Easy Digital Downloads</a>. It allows downloads to be “Coming Soon” or have Custom Status text, and prevents them from being added to the cart. It does a few things:</p>
<ol>
<li>Adds a checkbox to the download configuration so you can set the download to Coming Soon / Custom Status.</li>
<li>Adds a text field to the download configuration so you can set the text to show (default “Coming Soon”).</li>
<li>Adds “Coming Soon” or your custom status text underneath the price on the admin pricing column</li>
<li>Displays “Coming Soon” or the Custom Status text instead of the price when using the [downloads] shortcode, and anywhere else where the edd_price() function has been called.</li>
<li>Prevents the coming soon download from being purchased. The plugin will remove the purchase button and stop the download from being added to cart via the edd_action. Eg ?edd_action=add_to_cart&download_id=XXX</li>
<li>Allows customers to vote on a specific download. A download’s votes are listed on the edit/publish page and on the admin dashboard</li>
</ol>
<p>** Filter examples **</p>
<p>Example filter of how you can change the default coming soon text. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_default_status_text() {
    return 'Not long now!';
}
add_filter( 'edd_cs_coming_soon_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_default_status_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the markup of the coming soon text in the admin columns. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_admin_column_text( $custom_text ) {
    return '<h2>' . $custom_text . '</h2>';
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_display_admin_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_admin_column_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the markup of the coming soon text on the front end. Copy this function to your functions.php</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_text( $custom_text ) {
    return '<h2>' . $custom_text . '</h2>';
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_display_text', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_text' );
</code></pre>
<p>Example filter of how you can modify the message that displays when someone tries to purchase a download that is coming soon.<br />
This message can be tested by appending ?edd_action=add_to_cart&download_id=XXX to your URL, substituting XXX with your download ID</p>
<pre><code>function edd_coming_soon_modify_prevent_download_message( $download_id ) {
    return __( 'This item cannot be purchased just yet, hang tight!', 'edd-coming-soon' );
}
add_filter( 'edd_coming_soon_pre_add_to_cart', 'edd_coming_soon_modify_prevent_download_message' );
</code></pre>
