Hey mcography
Thank you for your post, it kind of make sense but is not working for me and you might be able to help me out.
What I need to do is to add Google analytics event tracking to my menu items so I can know if people actually click on them or not.
So what i did was creating the js file as you say but changed your on click event for my code so it looks like this.
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$("#menu-item-211").on("click", function(e){
e.preventDefault();
// event tracking code here
ga('send', 'event', 'category', 'action', 'label');
});
});
I also changed the menu item Id.
Then I added the function to my function.php file and double checked that the path to the olark.js was correct
But this is not working!
What am i doing wrong? In theory, I should be able to see the onclick event on the menu item when I inspect the element.
Hope you can help,
Thank you
