Shifter and the AMP for WordPress Plugin

Shifter supports the “AMP for WordPress” plugin, developed by WordPress.com VIP, XWP, Google, and contributors.

Important Note:

  • Shifter does not support other AMP-generating plugins (such as AMP for WP – Accelerated Mobile Pages or Better AMP).
  • If you enable an unsupported AMP plugin and generate your site, AMP pages will not be generated.
  • Please use the “AMP for WordPress” plugin instead of alternative plugins.

AMP Settings

Select Template Mode: Reader

The latest version of the AMP plugin supports three modes: Standard, Transitional, and Reader. If your theme supports AMP, we recommend selecting Reader.

Analytics (Optional)

You can configure analytics code, such as Google Universal Analytics. Please refer to the official documentation “ Analytics Vendors” to verify that your vendor is supported.

The analytics code must be in JSON format. For more details, see amp-analytics and the Analytics documentation.

Example of JSON format:

  "requests": {
    "pageview": "${pageview}"
  },
  "triggers": {
    "trackPageview": {
      "on": "visible",
      "request": "pageview"
    }
  }
}

Note:

AMP pages on Shifter must end with /amp/. Example:

Example:

  • Regular posts/pages: https://example.com/this-is-test/
  • AMP posts/pages: https://example.com/this-is-test/amp/
