Webflow Ecommerce Sales Conversion Tracking with Google Analytics 4 (GA4)
I have a friend that's been setting up his new ecommerce shop using Webflow recently and I was helping him set up sales conversion tracking for the shop.

To be on the safe side I'd probably still use Universal Analytics but it appears you can also use GA4 now too.
