Thanks for this. I'm changing my site to use these pixels from your previous implementation using additional scripts. In addition to removing things from additional scripts, is there anything else I'll need to change if I followed your previous GTM-GA4 guide? Thanks!

Thank you, this helped so much. It's been a tough couple of years trying to keep up with adding in Google Tag Manager, switching from Universal Analytics to GA4, Google Ads UI changes, Shopify checkout.liquid to customer event pixel, new cookie enforcement and privacy laws effecting browsers and devices. And merging mobile app analytics on top of all that. Been in the tech space for 30 years and have never seen this much chaos all at once regarding tracking.

Hi, great tutorial. All these new features about Custom pixels are complicated. Could you please help? We have a Google Analytics connected via Google & KZbin app. 1. Do we still need to add Google Tag Manager as a Customer event? 2. In Shopify article about GA4 it's said: "After you set up GA4 on your store, the following events are automatically tracked. Events (page_view, search, view_item, add_to_cart, begin_checkout, add_payment_info, purchase)". Do we still need to add "analytics.subscribe" events in a Custom pixel? 3 - Do we need to connect Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics if we have GA4 connected in Google & KZbin app?

@AlessioDePadovaАй бұрын
Thanks for the tutorial. Nonetheless, I am seeing that while the purchase and the begin_checkout events are sent to GTM perfectly, every store my company is managing seems to have problems with the events in the middle, payment and shipping info events. I can see in your video you are not showing in Google Tag Assistant those two events so I wanted to ask you: does everything work perfectly for you or even in your case from begin_checkout to purchase GTM seems to be, I would say, "inactive"?
@jasonpower67692 ай бұрын
presumably if using this the Google & KZbin app should be disconnected for analytics?

That’s correct. You will generally just want to use one method to install GA4 (and other tags) at a time.

Great stuff - would you consider refactoring the code a little to remove duplicate lines of logic? Is there a way in which the code can be hosted within the theme (point to an external javascript file within the pixel) - it seems fragile to keep the code maintained in a text area - at least checkout.liquid was version controlled. Will be circling back here closer to the August 25 switch off date.. Good job.

This is by design and on purpose from Shopify. See what you got to understand. here is most scammers and hackers possess a low level of intelligence (because it is fundamentally unintelligent to steal things) So Shopify is using a security approach that is best-worded like this: " Make things so unnecessarily hard to do that. only extremely intelligent people will figure it out" and then what our job is as devs is to continually release free information that "doesn't really work" UNLESS... someone is smart enough to figure out how to make it work and detect where the error in their code was... That's what's going on here. The information is purposely obscured to make it harder for hackers and scammers to continue to steal from American businesses on the internet which was pretty easy to do in the old integration method. and as you can see... Now that's really hard to do. So the intelligence level of somebody that's high enough to do this correctly is also high enough for them to run a real business that makes 100x more money than any scammer
