Using Conversion Tracking

[pdpd]

You may put your Google Conversion Tracking Code in complete.tpl and under settings, set " Just show the order completed page (no payment redirect)"

 

This is not a good solution because it doesnt take people on the natural path to payment... It stops them unnecessarily.

 

We need a solution which doesnt involve diverting people away from paying for their hosting right away.

This is why we want the CC fields to be on the actual order form and no redirect to creditcard.php

Any solution?

[BryanB]

I have it working to the point where if someone lands on /cart.php?a=complete, it counts as 1 goal conversion. Haven't figured out how to send the $ amount to GA though. Is what the trouble is? Maybe if we clearly outline whats not working someone from WHMCS will answer.

I just wanted to chime in and say this is retarded that it doesn't work. We have tried about a dozen methods and nothing works with accuracy.

 

I'm looking forward to a WHCMS update that makes this possible. But for now I'm giving up,

Thanks, Ben

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

Dont use it in a live environment as it open up a new window with a list of vars. and lang text for the current laguage in use

You dont send the price to GA you set a base price in the goal settings at GA

Scrapped ^

 

 

You will need to know the correct variable for the payment received to send this but append this to the tracking link

 

utmtto={$paymentvaluevaruable}

 

For further reading on this and there is a lot of it.
