It's easy to install and track your customers on Thinkific based websites, using the Gist JavaScript code snippet. Here are the steps you need to do:
1. Copy the Gist JavaScript code from the Settings > Tracking code page.
Gist JavaScript Code
Here is the Gist JS code snippet which you simply need to paste in your website code, before the closing </head> tag.
<!-- start Gist JS code-->
<script>(function(d,h,w){var gist=w.gist=w.gist||[];gist.methods=['trackPageView','identify','track','setAppId'];gist.factory=function(t){return function(){var e=Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments);e.unshift(t);gist.push(e);return gist;}};for(var i=0;i<gist.methods.length;i++){var c=gist.methods[i];gist[c]=gist.factory(c)}s=d.createElement('script'),s.src="https://widget.getgist.com",s.async=!0,e=d.getElementsByTagName(h)[0],e.appendChild(s),s.addEventListener('load',function(e){},!1),gist.setAppId("WORKSPACE_ID"),gist.trackPageView()})(document,'head',window);</script>
<!-- end Gist JS code-->IMPORTANT: Remember to replace “WORKSPACE_ID” with your Workspace ID.
2. Inside your Thinkific admin dashboard, go to Settings -> Code & analytics -> Site footer code
3. Paste your Gist tracking code inside this box and click on Save
That's it! You've installed Gist on your Thinkific website..
Tracking logged-in Thinkific users in Gist
To track your customers in Gist, you can add the following code right beneath the tracking you just installed.
<script> if(Thinkific.current_user !== null) {
gist.identify({
name: Thinkific.current_user.full_name, // Full name
email: Thinkific.current_user.email // Email address
});
}
</script>If you need any assistance with this, or if you run into problems anywhere in this process, feel free to reach out to us on live chat.
