How it works
To trigger something after a registration you need to know when it is successful. This is why we provide the following method:
<script>
livestorm.on('registration-success', function () {
// YOUR CODE
})
</script>
We also provide specific methods for any kind of pixels:
- livestorm .addPixel to add a link to an image-based pixel
- livestorm .addTag to add a tag-based pixel like a javascript file or an iframe.
To display a tracking pixel after registration
<script>
livestorm.on('registration-success', function () {
livestorm.addPixel('HTTPS://TRACKINGPIXEL.gif')
})
</script>
To execute a tracking script after registration
<script>
livestorm.on('registration-success', function () {
livestorm.addTag('script', 'src', 'https://TRACKINGSCRIPT.js')
})
</script>
To execute a tracking iframe after registration
<script>
livestorm.on('registration-success', function () {
livestorm.addTag('iframe', 'src', 'THE LINK HERE')
})
</script>
Examples
Here's an example of a common advertising network.
Example using Google Tag Manager
<script>
<!-- Google Tag Manager -->
...
<!-- End Google Tag Manager -->
livestorm.on('registration-success', function () {
fbq('track', 'CompleteRegistration')
})
</script>
Others examples
There are other advertising platforms that rely on conversion pixels that you can plug into Livestorm. Among which:
Send Events via Zapier
Another easy way to track registrations is to send events via Zapier once someone has registered. Then you can send events to Adroll or even Google Analytics.
For Google Analytics, you don't need to use this method to track registrations as we have a native Google Analytics integration. You may check out our dedicated page to learn more about this ➡️ Connect Google Analytics & Livestorm
In any case, here's the Zapier example to track registrations. The first step will be the trigger called " New registrant" and then the action called "Create a Measurement".
You'll need to fill in the necessary fields for the trigger "New registrant" and the action "Create a Measurement in Google Analytics".
Using Google Tag Manager
Instead of using the custom code you can just load Google Tag Manager and handle the code on GTM's end. You can define triggers that will help you create the action within Google Tag Manager. See here for the guide on Setting up and Installing Tag Manager.
1. First, you need to launch GTM.
2. Then, you need to add the scripts that you want to launch from GTM. So in the tag configuration, you can add all of your pixels and scripts that need to be loaded.
Note: You can create different tags if needed. This is useful for example if you want to load ad tracking scripts on event registration, and an entirely different set of scripts on PageLoad for example.
3. You need to define the triggers that will launch these tags, but you can also set up a trigger for event registration confirmed.
Another script should be used when someone completes their registration.
