Good plugin. Nonetheless, considering it is better to be in the safe side a consent banner is a must. It would be great if the tool also adds the function to incorporate the code in the header to support popular consent banners with matomo. Matomo already has made available the code for the most common popular consent banners. Plugins to add code in the headers have the drawback that one cannot really choose the location in the header, and the location seems to make a difference.
That the only reason preventing me using Matomo and that is the reason to set 2 stars to the plugin

Impossible to connect the sites with the latest version of Matomo, unusable!

This plugin does what it claims very easily. But also gives a lot of options if you want to customize your tracking.

Once you understand how the plugin works in connection to an “on premise” Matomo, it’s the ideal plugin for Analytics outside GA.
Am migrating most of the blogs I manage (8 so far) with good data.
Thx!

Lots of issues.
Main issue is no data showing in wordpress.
Also zero support even if you buy their packages. We spend close to $2000 and no replies.
Based on many posts, this appears to be a bug in plugin.
