1. Custom Pixel Code
In the process of website management, custom pixel code is a crucial feature that helps track and analyze visitor behavior and preferences, providing valuable data for optimizing your store. In the Shopline backend, you can easily manage custom pixel code, including adding, connecting, disconnecting, modifying, and deleting operations.
The LAX Sandbox stores the custom pixel code you upload to enhance security and professionalism. Please note that your pixel code functionality may not be applicable in the sandbox. If you encounter any issues, you can contact your Shopline account manager.
2. Instructions for Use
To start your journey with custom pixel code, go to the Shopline backend and click on "Settings" > "Customer event."
1.1 Adding Custom Pixel Code
Before adding custom pixel code, make sure to remove or modify any existing pixel code to avoid duplicate tracking of customer activity. Check locations such as theme.liquid, checkout.liquid, and other scripts in checkout settings to remove any existing pixel code. This ensures that customer activity is not counted twice.
- Go to the Shopline backend and navigate to "Settings" > "Customer event."
- Click on "Add Custom Pixel Code," edit a unique name for the pixel code, and save.
- In the sandbox area, enter your pixel code script, ensuring it does not exceed 30 characters.
- Click "Update" to save the custom pixel code.
1.2 Connecting Custom Pixel Code
If you are confident that the added custom pixel code complies with SHOPLINE Privacy Policy, you can connect the pixel code to your store to ensure it starts working. There are two ways to connect:
