In reply to: [Events Made Easy] #_ADDBOOKINGFORM not workingHi Franky, thank you for your help so far – still struggling… At the moment the form does not seem to validate. I have deactivate ALL plugins and the form continues not to validate.
I remain a bit stumped… if anyone else has had this problem please can they let me know and if there is a solution.

In reply to: [Events Made Easy] #_ADDBOOKINGFORM not workingSo a bit more…
In my example (see link above) I have a date for each ‘event’ and this followed the format d/m/y… but I had also included the Timezone identifier… example my date read 12 Nov 2013 (UTC).
The PHP Timezone identifier is ‘e’ and following the EME system I used #e in the ‘Default single event format’ settings…
The result was that EME spotted the #e and converted all instances of it found on the page. Including in the Action Field of the form.
I have now removed all instances of PHP time format characters from the page.
The form now has the right Action – but unfortunately it still does not submit a booking to the database.
Could it be to do with the Meta Charset?

In reply to: [Events Made Easy] #_ADDBOOKINGFORM not workingI have changed the Time Settings in WordPress… from UTC to London and now my # is converted to ‘Europe/Londonme-rsvp-message’
So – my problem is identified… their is a conflict between Events Made Easy and the time settings in WordPress…
This leads to the question of how to resolve… any ideas would be welcome.

In reply to: [Events Made Easy] #_ADDBOOKINGFORM not workingIt’s the encoding isn’t it… HTML5? Something is changing the # into UTC… I’ll investigate, but thank you for pointing me in this direction
Yes this does work for me… I get conversions in Adwords.
Let me be clear though – I had created a simple file (outside of WordPress) containing the Adwords & Analytics code which I referenced in the iFrame.
I can see that I have lots of pages views of the iFrame content in Analytics (it matches the total number of enquiries). I can also see only some of them came from Adwords.
In my opinion this works, but I’d like other to back me up.
I can confirm that when using a simple HTML file containing just the conversion codes needed then it works fine… I have not tested what happens if you add the conversion code to a WordPress Page and use that.
Yes that should work I don’t see why not… but I made a very basic HTML file with ONLY the Adwords Conversion code and Standard Analytics code in it and then uploaded via FTP.
In other words my ‘thankyou’ page was not actually part of WordPress. But I don’t see why you cannot reference a WordPress page in the iFrame – that should work.
If you add the normal GA code to the iFrame file it will serve as a check as well… as your Conversions in Adwords should match the Analytics for that file.
Does that make sense?
That failed – sorry… This is my newest attempt
OKay back to basics… here is what I did to make Google Adwords Conversion Code work and track properly.
Step 1) I created a new HTML file it only contained the Tracking code inside some html tags
<html>full Adwords Conversion code here</html>Step 2) In the Senders Success Message box I added
<iframe src='https://www.domain.co.uk/folder/file.html' width='1' height='1' frameborder='no'></iframe>Thus when the AJAX form called the hidden div it will also also call the iFrame and therefore the Tracking Code.
I really hope that this time I will have got this right comments welcome.

This did not work
Me to
Ok – after hunting around a bit more, this was a bit of a long shot and I know I’ve had conversions and they are not being recorded, so here goes attempt two. (my aim is not to have to create a Thank you page):
on_sent_ok: “jQuery(String.fromCharCode(60)+’img/’+String.fromCharCode(62)).attr(‘height’,’1′).attr(‘width’,’1′).css(‘border-style’,’none’).attr(‘src’,
‘https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/’+google_conversion_id+’/?value=’+google_conversion_value+String.fromCharCode(38)+’label=’+google_conversion_label+String.fromCharCode(38)+’guid=ON’+String.fromCharCode(38)+’script=0’).appendTo(‘body’);”We can replace the three items:
google_conversion_id
google_conversion_value
google_conversion_labelCan anyone verify that this will work?
Just put in it to the “# Sender’s message was sent successfully” field… I’m testing, but I do not see why this would not work.
