Hi toberho!

I’m not familiar with the google adwords tracking code but I guess this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/syntax-error-when-adding-tracking-code-to-form-submit-button/ will help you.

Regards,
Peter

I’m not that good in coding. But as I understood I need to put the Code from Google somewhere into a file. I did not really understood where to paste the code so that it is called after pressing the submit button. Do you have a hint for me where to paste it in which file?

The code looks like:
```

<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
var google_conversion_id = 12345678910;
var google_conversion_language = "en";
var google_conversion_format = "3";
var google_conversion_color = "ffffff";
var google_conversion_label = "RLtFCOHMyQcQr7Op0QM";
var google_conversion_value = 0;
var google_remarketing_only = false;
/* ]]> */
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<div style="display:inline;">
<img height="1" width="1" style="border-style:none;" alt="" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/975854099/?value=0&label=RLtFCOHMyQcQr7Op0QM&guid=ON&script=0"/>
</div>
</noscript>
```

Hi!

No, unfortunately this code does not contain a function which can be triggered by an onclick event. Maybe this code helps you: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2082129/how-to-track-a-google-adwords-conversion-onclick – you could add the js code snippet to header.php (insert it before the closing tag) and the
```
trackConv(12345678910,"RLtFCOHMyQcQr7Op0QM");
```
code must be part of the onclick event (see https://kriesi.at/support/topic/syntax-error-when-adding-tracking-code-to-form-submit-button/ which helps you to add it to the submit button). However I didn’t test it and I’m not sure if it works or not. If you really want to be on the safe side I suggest to hire someone who is familiar with the google adwords api.

Regards,
Peter

is it maybe possible to try another approach, after clicking the submit button simply forward to another page/html instead of showing the thank you message?

this would also be easier in terms of google analytics

Hi!

Yes but the default theme contact form does not support such a feature. You can use an advanced contact form plugin like http://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/ and follow the tutorial here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-form-7-adwords-conversion-tracking?replies=4 to implement the conversion tracking.

Cheers!
Peter
