Pixel Caffeine is possibly the better Pixel plugin that you should be using right now and here are 5 reasons why.
* Easiest Facebook Pixel integration. — You don’t need to be given Business Admin access to set up. As long as you have Developer’s access (or Ad Manager Account access), all you need is to push the Facebook Connect button, select the Ad Account, and done.
* No need to feel forced to set up Product Catalog and Instagram before the Pixel can be implemented. — The official plugin is like battling a boss battle that requires you to set up both Product Catalog and Instagram (that’s if you can get past the first stage of having the Business Admin to give you the correct access and even get to connect with the Page at all; not all businesses who just got started with Facebook ads know how to give the correct access. Developer access isn’t enough). Pixel Caffeine allows you to create the Product Catalog at your own convenience, without the hassle of having everything set up from the get-go.
* Conversions API (server to server). — It’s already implemented under General Settings > Server Side Tracking, with a quick link to where you can generate your token to be added for this to work. Also includes event logs (for debugging) and AJAX tracking (for sites with caching enabled).
* Custom Audiences and Conversions/Events tracking. — Maybe you’ve created a new Product Category, or a new blog post, you can easily create the custom audience or conversions/event tracking in the WordPress dashboard conveniently and without the need to hop over to the Ad Manager to get the job done.
* WooCommerce Conversions. — Under General Settings, toggle on the DPA that you want tracked, and the values will get picked up by Facebook Pixel. Easy.
I believe this plugin is being maintained and supported by one developer, which is probably why there’s a lot of unresolved topics and also brought up through a few poor ratings.
You will still see several active issues in your Facebook Ads Manager (most likely an approximate 10 if you are using WooCommerce) which was also occurring on the official Facebook for WooCommerce plugin too before I switched to Pixel Caffeine.
If you are helping friends or mom-and-pop businesses to set-up Facebook Pixel for their brand new WooCommerce stores (which you are also probably the one managing), or looking for the simplest way to have Facebook Pixel implemented on a WooCommerce website, Pixel Caffeine is the plugin that you’ll need.
Did I mention that Pixel Caffeine is also *ahem* … FREE?
Alright. Let’s hope that there’s a way to fix those active issues that Facebook keeps on showing in the Pixel diagnostics. ??

Buenos días. Les escribo para informarles que tengo problemas con el filtro del stock para crear el catálogo para Facebook, porque Facebook Bussines te retiene los productos agotados y no te permite la publicación en mi tienda de Facebook, viéndome forzado a mandar mis productos agotados a la papelera de reciclaje. Ahora, espero una pronta, eficiente y eficaz solución a este inconveniente con el filtro del stock en el plugin

The plugin somehow prevents me from updating any posts on my blog. Since installing it, every time I try to change something in my blog, it will say Updating failed. Only deactivating this plugin would solve the issue.
Try reporting this on their WP Support forum but seems like they haven’t answered anything on there for months.

So with the new update, some error occurred that might break your site.
I’ve reported the error and the plugin support was fast to reply and fixed it.

Since version 2.3 the plugin generates a fatal error on the cart page of woocommerce. Downgraded to 2.2 to make it work again

I’ve tried and tried to get this thing to work but it just gets stuck on 5 products. I have about 650!!! I’ve had enough. Someone wrote “if it’s this difficult to use then there’s no point” about a different plugin. The same comment applies to this. Absolute waste of time.

Since upgrade, this plugin has been really buggy and on the support page there are loads of inquiries and no response!

Editing My previous plugin as support seems to be back. However I will have to check whether the error remains because of which I had stopped using this plugin.

It may work for others but in my expeince there are errors and I have been trying to reach out their support team thru here and email, unfortunately they are not replying to any questions. This plug in has limited knowledge book and seem I cant find any online support for this plug in.

Simple to set up but doesn’t seem to be in full working order – my custom events/conversions cannot be viewed in Facebook Ads Manager / Events. I have reached out for support on the forum but no replies to any comments in the last 2 weeks.

could you add in the feed to display the price with a discount and the price without a discount for the product, if it participates in the action and it shows the share price?

Works great. I had a small issue but support fixed it right away. Highly recommended as there are no other free plugins that do everything this one does, especially for woocommerce

After installing it, my website now 50% of the time fails to load the CSS as it should.
I have to refresh the site to get sometimes the visual appearance that I once had. Why did this happen?

I think the title says everything but I’ll add that I’ve had 2 or 3 request regarding the app and Anton has gave me a fix that works in all occasions.
Thanks Anton!
