Hi Sojtv, I’m not a techie and it was 4 months ago but to answer your questions, yes, type “Contact Form” …under the Goals details. I have my contact form on a specific Contact page and not a landing page.
hope this helps and wish you the best of luck,
ThalesBingo. Finally works. Lesson learned. After countless hours and vowing not to give up even though I’m a non techie I managed to get Adwords to record conversions generated in Analytics in the new Contact7 form.
IMPORTANT: Link your analytics account with your Adwords account. Go to google analytics and you will be guided under the Admin Tab
I can’t remember every step but here are the basic ones which I hope will offer some guidance.
As Tyano member wrote (but with slight modifications)
1. Enter Contact Form 7 in WP.
2. Select “edit” which form you want to track
3. There are 4 tabs at the top of your form labeled: Form, Mail, Messages, Additional Settings.
4. Select the last one labeled “Addition Settings”
5. Add this line of code:
on_sent_ok: “ga(‘send’, ‘event’, ‘Contact Form’, ‘submit’);”DO NOT ADD THE OTHER CODE AS IT WILL NOT DISPLAY THE THANK YOU MESSAGE AS JBLANCARTE MEMBER POINTED OUT.
then again
6. In Google Analytics under Admin…select the View you use to monitor your traffic. Click on Goals to create a new Goal based on this Event
Goal > +New Goal > Custom > “Give it a Name” >
and then set the Event Conditions to:
a) Contact Form
b) submit
c) Label – I Left this field empty because if I didn’t it would not verify.then you should see a link below to verify. Click to test it.
Save and you should be done.
Then in AdWords, after a short while you should be able to Import this new Goal “Give it a Name” and those AdWords Conversions attributed to any submissions will be registered. More how here –
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1034306/?hl=en&utm_id=ad&authuser=1Give it about 24 hours to start recording conversions, meanwhile go to Real-time in analytics to test that it is recording.
I hope this helps. Good luck.
ThalesAngela, I’ll let you know. I’ve linked analytics with Adwords and followed Tyano’s steps. I expect it takes about 24 hours before I see any results. I’ll let you know.
Wow, Tyano. Thank you very much. Seems logical and I will put it to the test and report back in a day or two when conversions start being recorded. Thanks for the detailed explanation.
Thanks for your input Angela. Amazing how nobody seems to have an issue with this. Can Takayuki Miyoshi help us with this? Would really appreciate if you could at least guide us in the right direction.
and sorry, this link did not help explain it well since it’s for google analytics.
