Updating old Google Analytics tag (analytics.js) to the latest tag (gtag.js) #153

Great theme. Your work is wonderful.

I was wondering if simply changing the "googleAnalytics" tag from the old version (below)...

googleAnalytics = "UA-XXXXXXXX-X"

...to the new version (below)...

googleAnalytics: "G-XXXXXXXXXX"

...is sufficient to change to the new Google Analytics tracking tag. The example in your theme shows the old version (that is expiring apparently) and I'm hoping its as simple as making the switch.

Thanks!
