The WordPress Piwik PRO Tag Manager integration plugin allows you to include both the synchronous and asynchronous tags. When triggering the tags in a synchronous way, it adds the snippets of Piwik PRO Tag Manager’s code to the HTML head section. If you trigger them asynchronously, it places them directly after the opening body HTML tag.
All you have to do is provide your Piwik PRO Tag Manager server’s URL and the ID of the website.
To learn more about which type of tags you should use (e.g. asynchronous or synchronous tags), read the Tags section in the Piwik PRO Tag Manager’s documentation.
The plugin gives you also the possibility to configure the order in which the snippets will be included. To do so, you only need to insert wp_enqueue_script handles as a dependencies via plugin’s settings page. However, this will work only with wp_head and/or wp_body method.
A useful addition is output buffering. Owing to this function, you can use the plugin with any WordPress theme. Use it if you are not sure whether the preferred methods wp_head and/or wp_body function has been added to your theme.
You can enable the Piwik PRO Tag Manager scripts caching and control the cache refresh interval – useful when applying the Cache-Busting strategy.
You can also enable or disable the version parameter in the query string for the scripts’ URLs.
