They also highlighted DNN 9.12.0 release candidate and improvements to Google Analytics connectors. -- Community Topics and Updates The meetup's time and day were adjusted for logistical reasons, seeking input from attendees to find a suitable time slot. The discussion emphasized transitioning to Google Analytics 4 due to the impending data collection halt for Universal Analytics starting from July 1, 2023. A new Google Analytics 4 connector was introduced in DNN 9.12.0, allowing users to directly integrate Google Analytics 4 with their DNN websites. The meetup acknowledged and fixed a bug related to tracking administrators in Google Analytics connectors. The old Google Analytics connector is planned to be deprecated and eventually removed from the platform. Attendees suggested labeling the old connector as "legacy" to avoid confusion. Announcements included a fix for a CKEditor bug and improvements in user profile display in the Persona bar.
