mycket smidigt verktyg

This is/was such a great tool! The new assistant isn't as helpful and somewhat time consuming.

Is anyone else noticing that the GA4 Measurement ID's starting with G- are being flagged by this plugin as Universal Analytics code? Looks like data is streaming fine into Google Analytics.
