      Last year we started tracking a few click events on selected Planet 4 sites via Google Tag Manager, often based on the element's IDs or classes. This usually demands an extensive custom setup in Tag Manager and is often less accurate. 

      Tracking Methodology (updated)

      As suggested by pvincent and sdeshmuk, we can work with data-* attributes instead of dataLayer events. This should facilitate the implementation while also allowing some more flexibility when setting up the events tags in Google Tag Manager. 

      The idea is to implement a set of new data attributes with standard values. These will be used later to trigger events and define its category, action and label.

       

      Task: 

      • Implement data-attributes on elements:
        • data-ga-category
        • data-ga-action
        • data-ga-label 
      • Implement data-attributes with the following standard values:
        data-ga-category data-ga-action data-ga-label
        Menu Navigation  Greenpeace Logo
        Act
        Explore
        Donate
        Open Menu
        Close Menu
        Open Country Selector
        Close Country Selector
        Search
        [pageType]

       

      Here are the screenshot linking the design elements (both for mobile and desktop) with the data-ga-action standard value:

      • Desktop: 
      • Mobile:

      Next steps:

      1. Julia should create the Google Tag Manager setup in all P4-NRO's containers.  
      2. Investigate and communicate with NROs using child themes to apply the same data attributes
