Hello and i am very glad that i found you.
This is my first post/topic in this foum and it belongs to another category please move it there :)
I have a problem with Google analytics and Google Ads tag.
I followed the instructions that i found online and i added here: /index.php
This code:
<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-XXXXXX"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'UA-XXXXX');
gtag('config', 'AW-XXXXXX');
</script>
I also added here: /html/com_virtuemart/cart/order_done.php
This code:
<!-- Event snippet for Website sale conversion page -->
<script> gtag('event', 'conversion', { 'send_to': 'AW-XXXX/XXXX', 'transaction_id':'<%= orderId %>' }); </script>
The problem is that i can see the users in the website in Analytics but i can't see the orders in Convertion -> Ecommerce -> Overview.
What should i do?
Thank you very much.

You can
- manually add script
- use same plugins for VM:
https://www.minijoomla.org/extensions/google/google-tag-manager
https://www.minijoomla.org/extensions/google/google-tag-manager-for-virtuemart
and setup
but allways you must understund how right setup GA and GTM. I think you don't :) (create action in GTM for conversion)
And I think you mixed datalayer for GTM and gtag for Google Retargeting Conversion
Resume:
You must learning how right setup. This is not specific to VM but GA and GTM
Hello and thank you very much for the reply.
i dont use Google Tag Manager, i just went to Analytics -> Admin -> Tracking info and took the code from there.
Should i create Goals in Ecommerce -> Goals ?
If i use these two plugins what else should i do to track the orders and the visitors?
Should i use this code and where should i put it?
gtag('event', 'purchase', {
"transaction_id": "24.031608523954162",
"affiliation": "Google online store",
"value": 23.07,
"currency": "USD",
"tax": 1.24,
"shipping": 0,
"items": [
{
"id": "P12345",
"name": "Android Warhol T-Shirt",
"list_name": "Search Results",

"variant": "Black",
"list_position": 1,

},
