Quick note that you probably want to add to the of your thank you page in production so that google doesn't crawl it! My example site uses .webflow.io which I have entirely unindexed.
This stuff is golden man! not enough of it this clear and precise for Webflow. Would it be possible to do the same but with a pop-up model thank you, instead of a new page?
@@webbae I was thinking it shows the thank you message, so the native success would need to be hidden. then you just close and get back to browsing as normal.
Just curious if GA can handle that and track it in a similar way to the thank you on a new page. Obviously, it will require a custom solution to trigger the pop-up.
@@scotthumphrey2336 I think redirecting away from the modal might be weird UX as user expects a modal to exist on same page. This could be done pretty easily with google tag manager which is actually the end goal of this series anyways haha.
@@webbae There would be no redirect, I was thinking of a way to not leave the page, for better UX, using a pop-up thank you that triggered the event as a conversion. I guess this would just be custom scripts that could be triggered in the standard success message though. I can imagine some clients would not be happy with the user being redirected to a new page.
It depends how you have the beehiiv embed set up. Hopefully google recognizes the form submit event otherwise you'll need to track a success page view or button click. Hope that helps! Feel free to pop in discord and share a link if you need more help.
you would need to track a button click or form submit event. In my experience the form submit event doesn't always fire with GTM so be sure to test it thoroughly!
I think GTM might miss it because Webflow overrides the default form submit event with their own handler with jQuery... not sure though. It's been a few months since I worked on that with this video so maybe time to revist!
totally agree - it's not the best option but unfortunately tracking the form submission event loses more than half of the events so I think it's a decent option in this circumstance. What would you use?
I was the Pearl jam submission 😂😂😂
Thanks for these vids this stuff is so foreign to me and appreciate you breaking it down!

Nice i need this on a client project next week :)
Thankyou!!

Sure - does the Popup reveal the success message on submit? What happens on submit?

Thank you, this great!
Do you how to do it if I have a sign up form of Beehiiv integrated into Webflow through embedded code? 😅

@@webbae Thanks man!
So helpful. My question is if instead of a url for your Form submit/success, what do you do if it doesn't actually go to a different page?

Tracking conversions by page view isn't good, since user can view this page just by url / by reload a page / can view it multiple times etc.
