Using Conversion Tracking

[DimaK]

Was announced in V3.6 that it will work with Google Conversion Tracking. How do you use it?

[railto]

yeah have been looking for this myself

[Matt]

templates/orderforms/cart/complete.tpl is the file. There is a section in there:

 

{if $ispaid}
<!-- Enter any HTML code which needs to be displayed once a user has completed the checkout of their order here - for example conversion tracking and affiliate tracking scripts -->
{/if}

 

The HTML code you place there only runs once the user has paid and fully completed the order process.

In your example it's for "/cart/"

Will it work with /singlepage/order-complete.tpl ?

Or even if I use "/singlepage/" I have to add tracking code to /cart/complete.tpl ?

 

Will this code runs always or we have to enable it in "GENERAL SETTINGS" ?

(for example "Auto Redirect on Checkout" I use "automatically redirect the user to the invoice", will it work for me?

 

What variables can we use for tracking codes?

like payment amount, domain name, invoice num etc.

[DimaK]

I have tested,

and for "/singlepage/" we can add tracking code to /cart/complete.tpl

without additional settings,

 

But it's not work with Braces {, } in the tracking codes.

 

And still question how to add payment sum ?

[DimaK]

oh,

"Just need to enclose it in {literal} and {/literal} ..."

and it works

[tracktor]

Hi Dimak,

 

the code in complete.tpl work with "Auto Redirect on Checkout"??

 

regards

[Matt]

No matter what checkout option is used, the order process will now always end on the order complete page once paid for - that was the new feature.

Does anyone know what variables are available to use on this page? I'm sure there is a Smarty command you can use that will show the variables that are available for you, but my mind has gone blank

[JasonO]

I'm not sure, but I think it's {debug} - i've seen it posted around a lot here.

[D9Hosting]

Cheers, That's it

 

I've got a list of variables here, one thing that's missing is the order total, which would be very useful for Google Analytics, would this be possible to include Matt?

 

Here's the list for the rest of you, I'm copy/pasting straight from the debug console so lets see how it comes out....

 

{$SCRIPT_NAME} /clients/cart.php

{$breadcrumbnav} <a href="cart.php">Shopping Cart</a>

{$charset} iso-8859-1

{$clientsdetails} Array (3)

id => 152

firstname => Dan

lastname => Thompson

{$companyname} D9 Hosting

{$currency} USD

{$currencysymbol} $

{$invoiceid} empty

{$ispaid} empty

{$langchange} true

{$language} English

{$loggedin} true

{$orderid} 160

{$ordernumber} 7939606241

{$pageicon} images/support/order.gif

{$pagetitle} Shopping Cart

{$setlanguage} <form method="post" action="/clients/...

{$systemsslurl} empty

{$systemurl} http://www.d9hosting.com/clients

{$template} d9hosting

Odd... shouldn't $invoiceid and $ispaid not be empty after the person has paid? Or did you get his from a different step?

[D9Hosting]

I paid with credit rather than a standard gateway if that makes any difference?

 

I'll do another check tomorrow using a normal gateway and see what the results are.

[Matt]

If you need the total amount the order was for then you would use a code block like the below one to assign the {$amount} variable for use elsewhere in the template

 

{php}
$orderid = $this->get_template_vars('orderid');
$result = select_query("tblorders","amount",array("id"=>$orderid));
$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$amount = $data["amount"];
$this->assign('amount',$amount);
{/php}

 

So that would then enable you to do something like this in your tracking code:

 

<img src="http://order-tracker.com/?ordernumber={$orderid}&amount={$amount}" width="1" height="1" border="0" />

Cheers Matt,

That looks like it should do the trick

[allynne]

Matt, would the following also work?

{php}
$orderid = $smarty->get_template_vars('orderid');
$result = select_query("tblorders","amount",array("id"=>$orderid));
$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$amount = $data["amount"];
$this->assign('amount',$amount);
$clientid = $smarty->get_template_vars('clientsdetails.id');
$result = select_query("tblclients","city,state,country",array("id"=>$clientid));
$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$this->assign('city',$data["city"]);
$this->assign('state',$data["state"]);
$this->assign('country',$data["country"]);
{/php}

I have placed the code for sharesale (basically an img tag) in the orderforms/cart/complete.tpl but it's not working for me.

 

i do a view source on it and it seems to be different from the complete.tpl file.

 

for instance, at the end, it supposed to show:

 

<p align="center"><a href="clientarea.php">{$LANG.ordergotoclientarea}</a></p>

 

but that is not anywhere in the view source of the page: cart.php?a=complete

 

am i doing something wrong?

 

btw im using 3.6.

 

i also using a different template for frontend but i think it would still use orderforms/cart/complete.tpl no?

 

can someone please help me out?

[simplehelix]

Ok I've just done another test and found out that it is indeed loading the complete.tpl

 

However!

 

Even after sucessfully paying with a credit card, it seems to me that:

{if $ispaid} ... {/if} block is not being triggered at all.

 

Why could this be?

 

Anyone else have the same problem?

 

I am in a limbo here. someone help me out.

 

THanks.

[simplehelix]

Now I've done more tests and i found a bug.

 

// doing this will not echo hi

{php}

$orderid = $smarty->get_template_vars('orderid');

echo "hi";

{/php}

 

// But doing this WILL echo hi

{php}

echo "hi";

$orderid = $smarty->get_template_vars('orderid');

{/php}

 

can someone please confirm this?

 

Matt, can you please give me your take on this?

 

Thanks.

[DimaK]

Yes, with code:

------------

{php}

$orderid = $smarty->get_template_vars('orderid');

$result = select_query("tblorders","amount",array("id"=>$orderid));

$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);

$amount = $data["amount"];

$this->assign('amount',$amount);

{/php}

------------

 

it's not work correctly...not show {if $ispaid} block

[Tech Entrance]

I'm waiting to get a final working code out of this thread

[NextLevel]

I'm using Pro Rata billing. Using {$amount} just gives me the first payment amount rather than the total product monthly amount. Anyway of changing this or querying another table?

 

If you need the total amount the order was for then you would use a code block like the below one to assign the {$amount} variable for use elsewhere in the template

 

{php}
$orderid = $this->get_template_vars('orderid');
$result = select_query("tblorders","amount",array("id"=>$orderid));
$data = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$amount = $data["amount"];
$this->assign('amount',$amount);
{/php}

 

So that would then enable you to do something like this in your tracking code:

 

<img src="http://order-tracker.com/?ordernumber={$orderid}&amount={$amount}" width="1" height="1" border="0" />

Do we need any special settings in WorldPay or will this script get called no matter what happens after the customer goes off to WorldPay to complete payment?

[landexcorp]

I tried to make this work, with out success. Is it possible they could integrate right into the code as an optional feature? Quite a bit of other software has that.

[ksstudio]

What if client didn't pay on the spot, such as they select other offline payment method?
