google shopping code - product reference

[graphicz]

I have this on the client site:

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Ads: 9999999999 -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=AW-1070651145"></script>
<script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} gtag('js', new Date()); gtag('config', 'AW-9999999999'); </script>
<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22PageType%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20%27Product%20Page%27">
<!-- Event snippet for Xmas 2018 conversion page In your html page, add the snippet and call gtag_report_conversion when someone clicks on the chosen link or button. -->
<script> function gtag_report_conversion(url) { var callback = function () { if (typeof(url) != 'undefined') { window.location = url; } }; gtag('event', 'conversion', { 'send_to': 'AW-9999999999/xuDfCKbjyogBEImuw_4D', 'value': <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e" ><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePriceRaw" /></actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%200" ><actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePriceRaw" selectable="false" /></actinic:block>, 'currency': 'GBP', 'transaction_id': '<actinic:variable name="ProdRef" />', 'event_callback': callback }); return false; } </script>
</actinic:block>

It works fine except <actinic:variable name="ProdRef" /> produces:
NETQUOTEVAR:PRODREF What variable should I use for : 'transaction_id': '?????' Thank you!

You are using something intended for the Cart / Checkout pages on a Product Page. Try <actinic:variable name="ProductReference" />.

Thank you Norman, I have gone for encoded product anchor.

This is what I now have so far

Google wants to know whent he Add To Cart Button is clicked. So far I have this for the Add to cart button (just one shown for clarity)

<input value="<Actinic:Variable Name="CartButtonText"/>" name="_<Actinic:Variable Name="ProductID"/>" type="submit" class="button cart-button trackingbutton" onclick="return ValidateChoices(&#34;<actinic:variable name="ProductID" />&#34; gtag_report_conversion(&#34;<actinic:variable name="CanonicalPageURL" />&#34;));"/>

And this is my script that executes when he card button is clicked. SD doesn't like it, how can I improve it?

<script>
$( document ).ready(function() {

function gtag_report_conversion(url) { var callback = function () { if (typeof(url) != 'undefined') { window.location = url; } }; gtag('event', 'conversion', { 'send_to': 'AW-1070651145/xuDfCKbjyogBEImuw_4D', 'value':  <actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ProductPriceOnline%22%20%2f%3e%20%3e%20%270%27" ><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e" ><actinic:variable name="TaxInclusivePriceRaw" /></actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%200" ><actinic:variable name="TaxExclusivePriceRaw" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ProductPriceOnline%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%20%270%27" ><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e" ><actinic:variable name="AssociatedProduct::TaxInclusivePriceRaw" /></actinic:block><actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22IsGoogleExportIncludeTax%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%200" ><actinic:variable name="AssociatedProduct::TaxExclusivePriceRaw" selectable="false" /></actinic:block></actinic:block>, 'currency': 'GBP', 'transaction_id': '<actinic:variable name="EncodedProductAnchor" selectable="false" />', 'event_callback': callback }); return false;
}
$(".trackingbutton").click(function() {gtag_report_conversion()});
});
</script>

Thank you

Do things in the correct sequence and leave SD's ValidateChoices call intact. Try:

onclick="gtag_report_conversion(&#34;<actinic:variable name="CanonicalPageURL" />&#34;); return ValidateChoices(&#34;<actinic:variable name="ProductID" />&#34;);"

As for your other script. This is code that will only work on a Product Page as it has product parameters embedded in it. Not something I can debug here or fix for free.

Thank you Norman

I included product page variables as the script executes on the product page when the 'Buy Now' button is clicked and thence sends the pricing information to Google.

Best wishes
