It looks like you guys ripped off this plugin from: http://wordpress.org/plugins/google-universal-analytics/stats/ Which according to the stats has a release date of Aug. 2013 where this plugin has a release date of May 2014. I only say something because I don’t see any credit to the original author. In the readme.txt or otherwise. Pretty sad if true, since it looks like quite a direct copy. https://wordpress.org/plugins/universal-analytics/ Hi David, Sorry, for such a delayed reply to your post. I apparently need to change something so I get notifications from here. I wanted to thank you for bringing this to my attention. We definitely didn’t want anyone to feel that we ripped off Audrius Dobilinskas’s work. We actually gave him credit in both our readme.txt and our plugin description, but I will review this text to see if there is a way for us to make it more clear that it is based off of his plugin. Our version of the plugin has been modified and trimmed down to meet our specific needs and we wanted to share it for other people that it may appeal to as well. Thank you again for your inquiry. Cheers, crw My apologies for missing that piece.
