The error message regarding the Google Universal Analytics Tracking ID may not be directly related to the fact that the account is still awaiting mail confirmation. However, it is possible that the error message is occurring because the Google Analytics account is not fully set up or there is an issue with the tracking code.

To troubleshoot this issue, here are some steps you can take:

  1. Confirm email verification: Make sure that the email associated with the Google Analytics account has been properly verified. Check your email inbox for any verification emails from Google and follow the instructions to complete the verification process.

  2. Check tracking code: Once the email verification is complete, ensure that the correct Google Universal Analytics Tracking ID is being used in your Webflow project. You can find the tracking ID in your Google Analytics account under the Admin > Property > Tracking Info > Tracking Code section. Copy the entire tracking code and paste it into the Custom Code section in the project settings of your Webflow project.

  3. Validate tracking code: After adding the tracking code, you can validate it using Google's Tag Assistant or a browser extension like GA Debugger. These tools will help you identify any errors in the code and provide suggestions for resolving them.

  4. Clear cache and cookies: Clearing your browser's cache and cookies can also help resolve any tracking issues. Sometimes, outdated cached data can interfere with the proper functioning of the tracking code.

  5. Test and monitor: After implementing the tracking code and resolving any potential issues, it's recommended to test and monitor the tracking data in Google Analytics. Make sure that the data is being properly collected and reflected in your account.

It's important to note that it may take some time for the data to appear in your Google Analytics account, especially if you have just recently set up the tracking code. Be patient and give it some time for the data to populate.
