How to succesfully Install the Google Analyticator in WordPress<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I’m using the\u00a0Google Analyticator\u00a0plugin in WordPress, and have ran into the following error message when setting this up on two different blogs.<\/p>\n

“There was an Analytics API service error 400:Error fetching OAuth2 access token, message: ‘invalid_grant’<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I was seeing this error on the WordPress Dashboard page where the Google Analytics dashboard should have been displaying. \u00a0The plugin settings page had this message as wel.<\/p>\n

The issue is that the plugin has not been granted access to Google Analytics. \u00a0So this needs to be done prior to this working.<\/p>\n

The Fix:<\/b>
It’s actually really simple, it’s just a matter of finding the correct locations to click.
– In the WordPress Admin page, go to Settings -> Google Analytics.
– Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the link “Deauthorize & Reset Google Analyticator.<\/span><\/span>” \u00a0(For me, it was directly above an ad. \u00a0Not the easiest to find, but it’s there)
– On this page, there is a link that says “Click Here” near the top. \u00a0This opens another page, which is Google Analytics. \u00a0If logged in, you’ll see a blue button “Allow Access”. Click on that.
– Copy the code in the text box that appears.
– Go back to your WordPress page and paste the code into the verificiation box. \u00a0Click “Save and Continue”.
– You are now verified with Google Analytics. \u00a0You can now set up your Google Analyicator settings and be along your merry way!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
