Is anyone else not having success with Google Analytics?

It's not logging the same number of visits each day as Americommerce is saying we get, and it's not showing any ecommerce conversions. I've followed the instructions for adding the code pretty carefully.

  If you are using universal analytics, we had to install our own SSL certificate to have it track ecommerce. Worked for us at least.

  We are using Universal and have our own SSL, so that's not the problem. I don't believe it's even reporting the number of sessions per day correctly as it disagress with Americommerce's totals. Or maybe they are wrong?

  I can't speak to the sessions issue, as we only look at google analytics. But ecommerce is tracking for us, you can see if what we have will work for you (obviously replace your analytics number and website):

  Paste in Settings>Marketing>General

  <script>
  (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i['GoogleAnalyticsObject']=r;i[r]=i[r]||function(){
  (i[r].q=i[r].q||[]).push(arguments)},i[r].l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o),
  m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m)
  })(window,document,'script','//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js','ga');

  ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXX-Y', 'www.yoursite.com');
  ga('send', 'pageview');
  </script>

  and then Paste in Settings>Orders>Place order Script

  <script>
  ga('require', 'ecommerce', 'ecommerce.js');
  ##GOOGLECONVERSIONTRACKINGUNIVERSAL##
  </script>
