Use the additional settings tab and use on_sent_ok
on_sent_ok: "_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Forms', 'Submitted', 'Formname']);"

Thanks. Where exactly in the code do I paste the tracking tag?
Just as I showed it, but in your wp admin dashboard -> Contact -> select form -> under additional settings tab -> paste code, but use your own! Hope it helps
hello Graphics1 and all,
I too am trying to get this to work. In the documentation, Takayuki says to use –
on_sent_ok: "ga('send', 'event', 'Contact Form', 'submit');"
to track submissions. But you advise to use:
on_sent_ok: "_gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'Forms', 'Submitted', 'Formname']);”
Which is the best (or correct) snippet to add to Additional Settings? Also, silly question but where do I get the exact Form Name, and what do I escape a space with if the form name contains multiple words?
Last, does it matter what you enter into the Goal Details -> Event Conditions fields in Analytics for this to work? ( screenshot )
many thanks,
Rob
Hi @rak-nyc,
I’m not sure if it matters, its just a javascript function.
on_sent_ok: "any javascript code here and it should run when sent is success;"
That’s how I understand it, that’s how it was setup before my employment where I use it, and it works fine. I don’t know who Takayuki is, but I’m guessing it’s someone from CF7, in which case, I would listen to them.

Hi Graphics1,
I’m not exactly sure where to add the adwords tracking code. Please correct me if I’m doing this wrong.
In additional settings, while editing the contact form, I should just add it after “on_sent_ok”?
So it looks like this: `on_sent_ok: “<!– Google Code for Brochure Download Conversion Page –><script type=”text/javascript”>/* <![CDATA[ */var google_conversion_id = 989789720;var google_conversion_language = “en”;var google_conversion_format = “3”;var google_conversion_color = “ffffff”;var google_conversion_label = TGu4CNO_n2UQmPz71wM”;
var google_remarketing_only = false;/* ]]> */</script><script type=”text/javascript” src=”//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js”></script><noscript><div style=”display:inline;”><img height=”1″ width=”1″ style=”border-style:none;” alt=”” src=”//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/989789720/?label=TGu4CNO_n2UQmPz71wM&guid=ON&script=0″/></div></noscript>”`
Appreciate your help.
Hi there,
I’ve got the same problem and just resolved it using this code :
on_sent_ok: "var img = new Image(); img.src='####INSERT HERE THE GOOGLE CONVERSION IMAGE SRC####'"
In your case al612 the code will be :
on_sent_ok: "var img = new Image(); img.src='http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/989789720/?label=TGu4CNO_n2UQmPz71wM&guid=ON&script=0'"
Make sure it’s ONE-LINE ONLY (no CR in the JS code) when copy-pasting it in CF7 field otherwise it won’t be working !
Hope this will help !

By using this code on_sent_ok: "var img = new Image(); img.src='####INSERT HERE THE GOOGLE CONVERSION IMAGE SRC####'" it looks like AdWords can not verify the conversion code. Could someone confirm that? And yes, I did insert my own conversion image src. 😉
So, the best option would still be to just add a thank you page and add the proper conversion code there?
