Analytics module not working in production mode

[xdcha]

Version

2.2.0

Reproduction link

https://codepen.io/d--c/pen/rNNLXRq?editors=0010

Steps to reproduce

In development mode, with the debug code the script works fine. In production, I do not get any hits.

googleAnalytics: {
   id: "UA-147623000-1"
  }

What is expected ?

Hits in production mode

What is actually happening?

No hits in production mode.

Additional comments?

I did contemplate just leaving it in dev mode enabled:true but then the console is riddled with info which I do not wish to be seen by the user. I am using Nuxt v 2.10.1.

Do I need to change the 'Mode' in my Nuxt.config.js? Or shallI just use the Plugin method available on the official docs? https://nuxtjs.org/faq/google-analytics/

_{This bug report is available on Nuxt community (#c47)}

[cksho]

same here
"@nuxtjs/google-analytics": "^2.2.0",
"nuxt": "^2.10.0",

[xdcha]

Wonder if it is to do with the latest Nuxt?

[vana-dev]

same,

"nuxt": "^2.9.2",
"@nuxtjs/google-analytics": "^2.2.0",

[tetreault]

confirming this isnt working on my end

[maiconpazin]

Same here.

[jake-101]

same here in nuxt 2.10

[mfrascati]

Same here. Downgrading nuxt to 2.9.2 works as temporary fix

[cliffordh]

BROKEN, even when downgrading to 2.9.2!

[DispatchCommit]

Confirmed broken in 2.10, working in 2.9.2

[manniL]

Use the "thumbs up" emoji on the actual issue instead of posting "same here", "broken" or similar. Thanks.

I can't reproduce it though with the latest nuxt-edge build.

Settings:

    ['@nuxtjs/google-analytics', {
      id: 'my-analytics-uid',
      debug: {
        sendHitTask: isProd // true
      },
      set: [
        { field: 'anonymizeIp', value: true }
      ]
    }],

I'd appreciate a CodeSandbox as reproduction.

Not working either nuxt 2.6.3 & nuxtjs/google-analytics 2.2.0 weird because stopped working just 3 days ago.

[ryarturogi]

Im using GTM now after i saw this...
I tried using Google Tag Manager + Google Analytics with Nuxt.js

[xdcha]

@manniL With respect, I am not sure a Code sandbox will be able to assist further. I simply install via command line and then reference as I did in my reproduction link. Are you saying the code should be as you have mentioned in your post?

Here is my package.json if it is of any use?

"scripts": {
    "dev": "nuxt",
    "build": "nuxt build",
    "start": "nuxt start",
    "generate": "nuxt generate"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@nuxtjs/google-analytics": "^2.2.0",
    "huntjs": "^5.0.0",
    "lazysizes": "^5.1.2",
    "nuxt": "^2.10.1",
    "sniffer": "github:watsondg/sniffer",
    "vue-scrollto": "^2.17.1"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "coffee-loader": "^0.9.0",
    "coffeescript": "^2.4.1",
    "node-sass": "^4.12.0",
    "pug": "^2.0.3",
    "pug-plain-loader": "^1.0.0",
    "sass-loader": "^8.0.0"
  }

[sankhagowit]

In production using

"nuxt": "^2.10.1",
"@nuxtjs/google-analytics": "^2.2.0" 

with the module setting

modules: [
    [
      "@nuxtjs/google-analytics",
      { id: "GA-ID-Here"}
    ]
]

I can confirm the google analytics tracking script does not work.

However, if I change the module setting to

modules: [
    [
      "@nuxtjs/google-analytics",
      { id: "GA-ID-Here"}, debug: { sendHitTask: true }
    ]
]

as @manniL showed above the tracking script works again in production.

@manniL @sankhagowit Thanks so much both. I do have it working now. Thanks once more!!! :-)

[yooneskh]

adding this resolved it for me too

debug: {
  sendHitTask: true
}

[RobbieTheWagner]

We should not need to manually set sendHitTask to true though. It sounds like something in Nuxt 2.10+ changed with regards to determining if we are in dev or prod, so this is no longer sending hits.

[MatteoGabriele]

vue-analytics by default sets sendHitTask to true.
Not sure why, in the Nuxt module wrapper, this property has been set to undefined. Doesn't make any sense to me

VueAnalytics Nuxt version: https://github.com/nuxt-community/analytics-module/blob/master/lib/module.js#L7
VueAnalytics Original version: https://github.com/MatteoGabriele/vue-analytics/blob/master/src/config.js#L44

[yooneskh]

Yeah i agree

In prod mode sendHitTask will be set to true in next version 9c55a28

In dev mode sendHitTask is set to false

Note: By default, you won't see hits going out in dev mode. For testing analytics in dev mode, you must add the following to nuxt.config.js

@ricardogobbosouza When will the next version be published? I am using the top-level option so in the meantime should I just do this:

googleAnalytics: {
    id: 'UA-1234567-8',
    debug: {
      sendHitTask: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'development'
    }
  }
