Events

Using Events, you can measure clicks on links or other actions.

Example for measured actions:

• PDF downloads
• Clicks on HTML links
• Clicks on the main menu

"wt_ignore" is shown if for an action, no LinkId is passed.
This happens, for example, when using a plugin provided by Webtrekk (i.e., for measuring the scroll position). It also can point on erroneous integration when using manual event tracking.

Optionally, an event that starts a visit may be discarded. This setting can be adapted by Webtrekk.

Pages and Events

Webtrekk assigns an event to the last page tracked within the same visit.

If a user is using more than one tab, this can lead to an incorrect assignment of links. Therefore, we recommend to activate (e.g., in Tag Integration) that a Page Impression is measured each time a tab is activated.
Further information on this can be found in the training chapter Implementation 2 - Data Collection.

More information on integration of event tracking can be found in the training chapter on Implementation 2 – Data Collection.
