<h3>Flexible container implementation</h3>
<p>Depending on how you use Google Tag Manager you can delay the loading of the container script until the browser is idle. This may be relevant to you be if are focusing on pagespeed.</p>
<p>You may enter a custom domain name if you are using a custom server side GTM (sGTM) container for tracking. It’s also possible to specify a custom loader. GTM Kit has full support for Stape server GTM hosting.</p>
<p>You can also exclude specific pages from GTM entirely. Add URL patterns on the Container settings page and GTM Kit holds back the container, the noscript fallback, and its data layer scripts on matching pages. Useful for third-party checkout iframes, partner-hosted subpages, and in-app webview routes that run their own tracking. Glob patterns are supported by default, with optional regex for advanced matching.</p>
<h3>Post data</h3>
<p>You may specify which post data elements you wish to include in the dataLayer for use in Google Tag Manager.<br />
– Post type: include the type of the current post or archive page.<br />
– Page type: include a defined page type. I.e. post, page, product, category, cart, checkout etc.<br />
– Categories: include the categories of the current post or archive page.<br />
– Tags: include the tags of the current post or archive page.<br />
– Post title: include the post title of the current post.<br />
– Post ID: include the Post ID of the current post.<br />
– Post date: include the post date.<br />
– Post author name: include the post author name.<br />
– Post author ID: include the post author ID.</p>


GTM Kit – Google Tag Manager & GA4 integration


That plugin was exactly what we've been looking for and testing a couple of paid extensions. This one is super easy to configure and gives the data we exactly needed.



EDD integration is a blast!


Simple, yet effective


We are using the GTM Kit plugin integrated with the Easy Digital Downloads plugin, and it's been working very well for us!



Recently, we faced an issue with the GA4 reports where some purchase events were missing. We immediately reached out to the support team, and they provided a quick fix.



Now it is working fine with EDD.



Thank you!!
