Plugin / Contact Form 7 Google Analytics

Andrew Minion

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

This plugin does not collect or send any personal information or form submissions to Google Analytics. The only form-related information sent is the name of the form and the submission result (invalid, spam, mail sent, mail failed, and sent). Google Analytics does collect more information including, but not limited to, the following: Page name, URL, and language Screen and window size The user’s IP address For more information, refer to Google’s compliance information. Please also note that Contact Form 7 and other plugins may collect, process, or store user data.
Check your statistics in Google Analytics under Behavior > Events or under Real-Time > Events.
This depends on the settings you choose. Invalid – Fires when an Ajax form submission has completed successfully, but mail hasn’t been sent because there are fields with invalid input. Spam – Fires when an Ajax form submission has completed successfully, but mail hasn’t been sent because a possible spam activity has been detected. Mail Sent – Fires when an Ajax form submission has completed successfully, and mail has been sent. Mail Failed – Fires when an Ajax form submission has completed successfully, but it has failed in sending mail. Sent – Fires when an Ajax form submission has completed successfully, regardless of other incidents. This is the only event available if you have Contact Form 7 version 4.7 or earlier. This is the only original event sent by this plugin. I recommend enabling the other four and disabling this event, unless you need it for old goals you had set up from several years ago.
