I am still hammering away at installing Google Tag Manager on a client website.
I have built tags to fire for page-views and link-events.
The page-view and link-event tags are shown to fire on the page using the Tag Manager De-bugger.
A typical link-tag looks like
nav-home
Universal Analytics
Track Type of Event
{{event}} equals gtm.linkClick
{{element ID}} contains nav-home
with the rules being the lower two values set in brackets.
I’ve used elementID instead of element URL because many of the links scroll within the page using a <a href="#internal-link">
In response to this article http://www.simoahava.com/analytics/dont-gtm-listeners-work/
by Simo Ahava I have modified my JavaScript scrolling script to have “event.preventDefault();”.
The Page-view fires and shows up in Google Analytics.
The Link-Click Events do not show up in Google Analytics even though Tag Manager De-bugger shows them to fire.
How can I get Google Analytics to show and track these events?
Much thanks in advance.
