Trouble with Woocommerce tracking

    Hi!

    I have a question regarding setting up WooCommerce transaction tracking using this plugin. I have Google Tag Manager installed and Woocommerce integration enabled. I do not see the transaction details(productID,cost etc) for a transaction in GA.

    Do I need to add the code to the datalayer in the /checkout/order-received page or will the plugin take care of this? I have the transaction tag and rule set up in GTM.

    Thanks in advance!!

    Hi Kausi,

    You need to setup a new tag in GTM.
    Select Universal Analytics or Classic Analytics from Tag Type dropdown depending on which GA version you are using.

    Select “Transaction” from the Track Type dropdown.

    Create a new firing rule:
    {{event}} equals ‘gtm4wp.orderCompleted’

    Everything else is being done by the plugin.

    Hope this helps,
    Thomas

    Hey Thomas! Thanks for the reply! I have set all this up(Universal Analytics) and it was my assumption that the plugin would do the rest as you confirmed.

    We use the PayPal gateway. We did a test transaction, and though the goal in GA reflected it, the revenue and other details were not seen. Is there something that I could be missing? How can I test the flow and the datalayer variables at the end of the transaction?

    It takes around 2-3 hours until the transaction data is being displayed in GA.

    Hi Kausi,

    Are you getting GA transactions now?

    Thomas,

    I am yet to check it. Caught up with some other work. I will let you know at the earliest. Thanks for checking!

    Thomas,

    I made a test transaction and I don’t see the transaction details yet in GA. I believe I have done the set up as recommended. Is there a way to debug this?

    For the record: wp_head() call was missing from the template and there was a redirection issue using PayPal payment.
