What is Tracking Scripts?
Tracking Scripts lets you paste code snippets from analytics and marketing tools (for example Microsoft Clarity, Hotjar, LinkedIn Insight or a custom pixel) into every page of your storefront, without a developer.
Find it at Marketing → Tracking Scripts once the module is on.
Each script has a name, a short slug, a placement on the page, and an Active switch.
Use the built-in modules first
For the most common tools, CartWhizz has dedicated modules that also send purchase and add-to-cart events and respect cookie consent:
- Google Analytics 4
- Google Tag Manager
- Google Ads conversion tracking
- Facebook (Meta) Pixel
Use Tracking Scripts only for tools that don't have their own module.
Limits to know
- Only approved script sources load. A snippet that loads a file from another website only works if that website is on CartWhizz's list (see Common recipes). Others are silently dropped.
- Custom scripts follow cookie consent. With the Cookie Consent module on, scripts added here count as Marketing and load only after the shopper allows marketing cookies.
- Scripts appear on storefront pages only, not in your admin.
