Journey Dashboard showing 0 sessions & 0 pageviews

Hi,  

For weeks my GA4 was severely under-reported traffic because of an aggressive WordPress caching setup. On December 7 I finally fixed the caching issue (excluded analytics scripts, cleared everything, etc.). GA4 immediately started showing correct numbers – on Dec 7 I had **101 sessions** and decent realtime activity.

However, in my Journey dashboard for Dec 7 the numbers now look like this:  

- Earnings: $0.06  

- Impressions: 447  

- CPM: $0.14  

- Sessions: 0  

- Pageviews: 0  

- RPM: $0.00  

So ads are definitely loading and earning money, but Journey is pulling zero sessions/pageviews from GA4, which kills the RPM calculation.

Things I’ve already checked/done:  

- GA4 property is correctly linked in Journey settings  

- Time zone in Journey is set to Eastern Time  

- No VPN or ad-blocker when testing  

- Cache is now properly excluded for analytics scripts  

- Consent Mode is turned ON in Journey settings (I don’t have any custom consent plugin that forces analytics_storage=denied)  

- Tested in incognito + Tag Assistant – GA4 tags are firing perfectly now

Is this a known delay after a big GA4 tracking fix? Or could the sudden jump in correctly-tracked sessions have “confused” the integration? How long should I wait before the sessions start populating in Journey, and is there anything else I can do on my end?

Really want to see accurate RPM again now that my real traffic is finally being counted!

Thank you in advance!
