3. THE PROBLEM

4. The Problem Explained
• Google Analytics was tracking
WordPress previews of pre-
published, draft content
• These previews were being tracked in
Google reports

5. THE SOLUTION

8. Click on ‘Custom’

9. Click on ‘Save’
Same page – scrolled down

10. A Few Notes
• Google Analytics can take up to 24-
hours to reflect the new filter
• When testing the new filter, Google
indicated that it wouldn’t make a
difference to stats – but it did!
