      I was thrilled to find out that Ivory Search had support for Google Analytics, but apprehensive when Ivory Search>Setting>Analytics gave directions for Google Analytics 3, not 4. Therefore I was elated when, having done nothing other than enabling Google Analytics in my WordPress site, I saw events from Ivory Search in Google Analytics. Unfortunately, there was also a problem. While I saw events like Ivory Search – ID-of-a-search-form, I saw many, many events of Ivory Search – Default. Seemingly, every page_view event also generated an Ivory Search – Default, which not only cluttered up my data but severely over counted the number of searches on my site. (My site has one dedicated search page and no use of the default search widget on any of its pages.) Looking at the code in ivory-search.js seems to support that idea, as it seems to call ivory_search_analytics() on every window load if analytics is enabled. Why? Is it possible to generate Ivory Search events only for true searches?

      I hope you are well today and thank you for reporting the issue.

      I have resolved the issue in the plugin version 5.4.2 which will be released shortly.

      Best regards,
