hey everyone  
Hope this is right place to post.  
Just signed up and installed the Hub WP plug in (for tracking stats)  
When activated I initially get a 500 error- but no error logs in my CP panel. NOw my pages are just blank when I load then  
Deactivating the plug in solves the problem.  
I guess i could be a plgu in conflict issue - no idea where to start.  
Have tried clearing cache, reloading and restarting browser - still same issues.  
Anyone any ideas?  
Thanks  
Cara

Hey Cara -

I’m going to make a recommendation that’s a little outside the box: Instead of using the HubSpot plugin, use this Google Tag Manager plugin: \*\*[https://duracelltomi.com/google-tag-manager-for-wordpress/](https://duracelltomi.com/google-tag-manager-for-wordpress/) \*\*

You’ll want to set up a Google Tag Manager Account: **[Website Tag Management Tools & Solutions - Google Tag Manager](https://www.google.com/analytics/tag-manager/)** Once you’re in Tag Manager, you can just copy and paste your HubSpot analytics code into tag manager.

The reason I prefer this method is that Google Tag manager accepts all of your tracking codes (HubSpot, Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, etc.) so, you don’t need a new plugin (or developer help) for every analytics or ad platform you use. Tag manager also makes the tracking code non-blocking, so if for some reason your tracking code is bad, your page will still load.
