## Description

Tracking Code For Google Tag Manager is a simple, lightweight WordPress plugin for
inserting your Google Tag Manager tracking code. The plugin does one thing and one
thing only; prints the standard Google Tag Manager tacking script to the `<head>`
of your website. To insert your container ID, navigate to Settings > General and
then scroll to the bottom of the page.

### Composer

    ```
    composer require claytoncollie/tracking-code-for-google-tag-manager
    ```

### Filters

If you want to set the container ID without using the wp-admin user interface, use
the filter below.

    ```
    add_filter(
        'tracking_code_for_google_tag_manager_id',
        /**
         * Set Google Tag Manager container ID.
         *
         * @param string $container_id Container ID.
         *
         * @return string
         */
        function ( $container_id ) {
            return 'GTM-7654321';
        }
    );
    ```

### Contributing

While the purpose of this plugin is to be very tightly scoped, issues and pull requests
are welcome, but I do not guarantee that everything will be merged or support will
be given.

## FAQ

### Why did you build this plugin?

The plugins I have used in the past to solve this problem have too many features
for my liking. This plugin is comprised two functions. One for registering a settings
field on the Options General page. And another for printing the tracking code to
the frontend. I want a lightweight solution for the websites that I build without
all of the extra bells and whistles. If you are expecting this plugin to do more
or grow in the future, please do not use it.

### Where is the tracking code inserted?

The tracking code is inserted into the `<head>` section.

### Will this plugin slow down my website?

No. This plugin is intentionally lightweight. All it does is register a settings
field, saves to the database, and then inserts the tracking code. Nothing more.

### I found a bug. How do I report it?
