Independent Analytics Integration
Independent Analytics Pro automatically tracks successful Core Forms submissions and connects them to the traffic, campaign, page, device, location, and visitor journey that led to the conversion. You do not need to add an action to each form or configure a GA4 event.
The integration is provided by Independent Analytics and runs when both plugins are active on the same WordPress site.
Requirements
- Core Forms is installed and active.
- Independent Analytics Pro is installed and active. Form Tracking is not included in its free version.
- Both plugins run on the same WordPress site.
Setup
- Install and activate Core Forms.
- Install and activate Independent Analytics Pro.
- Submit a Core Form once, then open the form reports in Independent Analytics to confirm that the submission and conversion rate appear.
There is no Independent Analytics action to add in the Core Forms editor. Independent Analytics documents this as a direct PHP integration, so it can recognize successful submissions without manual event rules.
