OnClick Not adding to Debugger?

Avatar

Level 2

We are using S_Code H.25.4 on our site currently. 

We use a JS "on click" command when we have a PDF file download to force those files to report to Analytics.

 

(I do realize that I'm missing the ; in the appropriate spots on these screenshots. When they were in place between each evar definition it has the same results)

The struggle we have is that we do not get all our other evars and props that we get with our page views. I tried modifying our OnClick link to add the other evars (and then I'll add sProps after I sort this out), and my link code looks like this now

onClick - OtherData Not Populating in debugger.png

The problem we have is... when I load this page, it populates all the correct variables, but when I click to download, it still only populates evar5 (below... Left column is the page load and the right column is the file download click)

Hi @Motoed-Work ,

 

Can you maybe try removing the spaces in your s.linkTrackVars? I've always coded mine as:

s.linkTrackVars = "eVar5,eVar6,eVar15,eVar21,eVar22,eVar23,eVar27,eVar32,eVar37,events";

 

And mine has always worked.. I've never tried with spaces, but that seem to be the biggest difference I can see at this time.

 

Also, not sure if it's intentional, but you seem to be setting eVar1 and not listing it in your linkTrackVars, perhaps that is a minor oversight?

 

If you are willing to share a link to your website (even if via a private message) I would be happy to take a look and see if anything else looks amiss.

@Jennifer_Dungan I think the same, @Motoed-Work eliminate the spaces in between eVars in linkTrackVars.

That solved it. Thank you both!

Is it also possible to just declare Props in this same string as well or does that need done differently? I tried adding this
s.linkTrackVars='eVar5,eVar6,eVar15,eVar20,eVar21,eVar22,eVar23,eVar27,eVar32,eVar37,Prop5,events';

But it didn't report in debugger.

I'm so glad that fixed it. Also, you 100% can add props, lists, products into this list. Try using "prop5" instead of "Prop5" in case it's case sensitive.....

 

I use the s.LinkTrackVars in my implementations, both from before Launch, and even now in my Launch implementation, and my props come through properly.

Yay! Glad it was an easy fix.
