Plugin variables (Advanced)
- Code is set to "google_analytics" by default; shouldn't need to be changed
- Priority identifies the order in which plugins are called. Lower numbers priorites will be called before higher numbers.
- Apply rendering? (Author's note: I'm not quite sure how this variable is supposed to interact with the plugin and b2evolution. On my installation, it is set to "never", and works for me. Future updates may clarify this setting.)
