Yahoo Search Marketing Conversion Tracking Integration

Support thread for the Yahoo Conversion Tracking contribution.

I was looking at intergrating this myself on my site but it looked fairly complicated. Your install when smoothly but it doesn't seem to be recording revenue. With three conversions, the revenue figure is $0.00.

In our Yahoo account, under the Administrative tab I have 'Conversion Only Analytics' ON. Below that, under the Conversion Only tab the drop down is set to Dynamic Value and the value field is left blank.

Hmmmm ...

Thanks for that heads up Jim. I'll take a look at it here. I've got it working on a few other sites and it appears to be recording BUT I'll see if I missed something in here and re-post if necessary.

Either way I'll let others know here what the issue might have been once I determine it.

Thanks!

PS. One thing before I go. When you make a purchase and arrive at the thank you page, can you perform a "view source" on the page and then look all the way to the bottom of the page to find the Yahoo code.

Let me know if the "total amount" is filled in with the order total. (the "Currency" field is and should be left blank as per Yahoo directions.

Yep, it's there. Here's the partial code:

<!-- bof YSM Tracking -->
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!-- Yahoo! Inc.
window.ysm_customData = new Object();
window.ysm_customData.conversion = "transId=702485,currency=,amount=149.02";
var ysm_accountid = "xxx";
document.write("<SCR" + "IPT language='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' "
+ "SRC=//" + "srv1.wa.marketingsolutions.yahoo.com" + "/script/ScriptServlet" + "?aid=" + ysm_accountid
+ "></SCR" + "IPT>");
// -->
</SCRIPT>
<!-- eof YSM Tracking -->

Eric,

Thanks for this great mod. Previously before your mod, I inserted the Yahoo conversation tracking code in define_checkout_success.php for tracking conversion. Now that I have installed your mod. Can I safely remove the tracking code that was previous pasted in that file or is it still needed? Thanks!

I'm not sure if I installed this mod correctly in my Zen 1.3.7 cart. I get these messages:

Warning: main(includes/languages/english/yahoo.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/v/i/c/vickilapp/html/yahoo.php on line 37

Warning: main(includes/languages/english/yahoo.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/v/i/c/vickilapp/html/yahoo.php on line 37

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'includes/languages/english/yahoo.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/content/v/i/c/vickilapp/html/yahoo.php on line 37

There were 4 .sql files provided with this mod:
yahoo.sql, then 3 files that were in the sql update folder. The only one that uploaded without an error was update_v1.08.sql. Do all 4 need to be uploaded?

Any guidance on how to properly install this module? I didn't see instructions in a readme file or elsewhere.

Thanks in advance!

Vicki,

Are you sure you're posting in the right thread? This thread is for the Yahoo Search Marketing Conversion Tracking module found here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...oducts_id=1159

It only has one SQL file for install and a single file that is added to your site. None have to do with the "languages" folder at all.

Can you confirm you're posting about the same mod so i can see if I can help?

Oops! I did reply to the wrong thread. The module that I am having trouble with is the Yahoo Product Submit Feeder. Thanks for responding.

HI

I installed this mod, made the edits, ran the SQL and turned the module on, but the tracking code isn't in my page source.

I put the php code in tpl_main_page between a comment and all that shows up in the source is this:

<!--bof- Yahoo analytics tracking module -->
<!--eof- Yahoo analytics tracking module -->

Analytics is enabled in my Yahoo account.

NEVERMIND
I read the code in the ysm module. The yahoo tracking info olny appears on teh checkout_success page
