Thank you!

I assume that it's the same in v8 as v9?

So a working conversion code would look like this...

<!-- Google Code for **** Purchase / Sale Conversion Page -->
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var google_conversion_id = ******;
var google_conversion_language = "en";
var google_conversion_format = "3";
var google_conversion_color = "ffffff";
var google_conversion_label = "*******";
var google_conversion_value = 0;
if (NETQUOTEVAR:ACTINICORDERTOTAL) {
  google_conversion_value = NETQUOTEVAR:ACTINICORDERTOTAL / 100;
}
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>

</div>

That looks correct - give it a try.

[Rich Brady]

It should do, Duncan's very good at what he does.

Try it. I'm going to merge this thread with the one I linked to, so we don't dilute the forum with duplicates.

Thank you for all of your help.

I will report back saying whether the conversion tracking is reporting correctly or not.

im not sure if its already been noted but google integrates all its products together, so if your goodle adwords and analytics are managed under the same account they will share statistics giving you an amazing first class set of data. I manage several clients advertising this way. Under your analytics it will tell you how many people have visited your site via CPC vs natural listings and also uses that data to show you how productive your advertising is - but you do have to have your adwords and analytics managed under the same google account.

using V9 - I already have working Analytics code and have today, added the adwords conversion code to the receipt page as per the linked video (thanks for that). However, Actinic is now reporting an error on the receipt page 'A JavaScript error has been found on the page ('Expected')").
.
The new code is below:-

<!-- Google Code for RockP Sale Conversion Page -->
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var google_conversion_id = 1212121212;
var google_conversion_language = "en";
var google_conversion_format = "3";
var google_conversion_color = "ffffff";
var google_conversion_label = "4c6eCKS0vwEQ-pTC6QM";
var google_conversion_value = 0;
if (NETQUOTEVAR:ACTINICORDERTOTAL) {
google_conversion_value = NETQUOTEVAR:ACTINICORDERTOTAL / 100;
}
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<div style="display:inline;">

</div>
</noscript>

Any help much appreciated

Code snippets for other tracking requirements

I have successfully set up the Adwords tracking as discussed in this thread and am now being faced with requests for other sources - the most recent is Facebook.

Do any of you more experienced Actinic users have experience of such requests and if so can you point me towards any information which will help me get to grips with these requirements? I have tried every search string I can think of for both the Knowledgebase and for this Community but have drawn a bank so far. I am not comfortable with suggestions that I paste this and that bit of code to the site without understanding better what Actinic will tolerate.
