Target on lightbox

Avatar

Level 1

Hello,

I'm trying to setup a conversion in a lightbox submit button.  The challenge is that because this is a lightbox, the page doesn't refresh when you click the button, thus the request doesn't fire.  Any recommendations on what I can do to solve this will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi Ridder ,

Are you trying deliver Targeted content on the submit of a lightbox or you want to setup normal custom event conversion on the submission of a lightbox form ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi Parit,

Thanks for the quick reply.  To answer your question, I'm trying to setup a normal conversion event on submission.  The way that I did it was when a visitor clicks the submit button.  I'm including an image of the setup.  Let me know if you need additional information.

Thanks,

Ridder,

You need to fire an mbox call on the button click.  If you are using our new at.js library the method to use is trackEvent:

If you are using mbox.js you would use mboxDefine()/mboxUpdate().

Ridder,

Just saw your screenshot.  I would think the UI-clicktracking you used should work even without a page refresh.  You don't see any mbox calls in your browser Network tab when you click the button?  Please note that if you are using the Preview Links to review your test experience that metrics don't increment with Preview Links.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the information.  As you pointed out, I would think also that the counter would increase based on the setup that I did, but unfortunately that's not the case.  When I click the submit button, I don't see a request firing.  Also, I'm testing in our staging environment, without using the preview links.  

Thanks,
