Plugin looks promising, but there are NO step-by-step instructions for the lay person. The developer obviously assumes a lot on the part of the user. For someone who is new to google analytics, forget it! You’ll waste hours trying to get this running. The developer needs to provide STEP BY STEP instructions on each part of the setup process, and not assume the user is a google analytics expert!!! There are links to the google pages, but that’s it. No information about what links there need to be clicked. No information about what a client-id is or where to create it. No information about what email they want the user to enter. No instructions of any kind. Too bad. It looks like it had potential.
