I am trying to set up Onclick tracking code, but I dont know if I have got it correct. My Google analytics is using universal analytics and this is the code that I am putting in the Lead Call Button Onclick code box:

onClick=”ga(‘send’, ‘event’, ‘Mobile Contact’, ‘Phone’, ‘Phone button clicked’);”

Nothing is showing up in my GA when I test this. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Thanks for your reply. I think I have it sorted. I just needed to put it in like this:
ga(‘send’, ‘event’, ‘Mobile Contact’, ‘Phone’, ‘Phone button clicked’);

Hi mishel298,

I will assume you are using Google Analytics to track this and know which GA code you are using (GA or Universal analytics). I am using Universal analytics. Here is a screenshot of the code I placed into the Lead Call Button Onclick Code box: https://www.screencast.com/t/5pgXITqe6
And here is a screenshot of where it then shows up in GA: https://www.screencast.com/t/PtKmikIA3Yq

I’m certainly not a guru in this area, but I did manage to get this to work!

The GA data is simply to match what you put in the Lead Call fields. See here: https://www.screencast.com/t/UpsuXMq9K and then here for where these are coming from: https://www.screencast.com/t/pY8qWKczyUtb

Hope this helps.

This thread is very helpful. I would recommend adding this info into the FAQ and or a help section within the plugin.

Hi all,

I have been using this plugin for a few weeks now, but I don’t seem to able to track the clicks in Google. I have used both the following codes:

ga(‘send’, ‘event’, ‘Lead Call button’, ‘(0495) 54 84 87, ‘Telefoonnummer Weert’);

and

ga(‘send’, {
hitType: ‘event’,
eventCategory: ‘Lead Call button’,
eventAction: ‘(040) 2572922’,
eventLabel: ‘Telefoonnummer Eindhoven’
});

But no events are triggered :-(. Could it be a conflict with Google Tag Mangager? I am using it on the website of a client:

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,

a follow up from my last post. I really like the plugin, but it is crucial for us that we are able to measure the clicks on the phone numbers.

here’s one way we’ve done it:

our link:
<a href="tel:9547839737" onclick="ga('send', 'event', 'Phone Call', 'click', 'Home Header');">954.783.9737</a>

our goal in google analytics

Look at the screencast.com links in the previous replies by trublu30. They absolutely do work as described. If it is not working for you, you probably have a plugin conflict (you’ll need to deactivated and test one by one) or or you are testing using an IP address that you have set up to exclude in Google Analytics or your UA code implementation on your site (if using a plugin) is setup to exclude your user role (if you’re logged in)

Has anyone tried this onclick tracking for Facebook leads? Option 2 at the bottom of this post http://plankton.com.au/facebook/tracking-facebook-leads-wordpress-contact-form/ shows code that could be used, but can we have two codes (Google and Facebook) within the onclick code field within Lead Call Buttons Settings? Be glad of feedback from the team or community.
