Install Facebook Pixel Tracking

Question

I am trying to add Facebook conversion tracking but i cannot find the following file success.phtml

The right path it should be this one: app/design/frontent/default/default/template/checkout/success.phtml - I couldn’t find.

Any idea?

Answer 1

Please have a look at app/design/frontend/base/default/template/checkout/ as it is the 'new' directory where you find Magento's default template files. Nevertheless Magento would also look at your directory.

Have a look at http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/magentos-theme-hierarchy to get an understanding of the theme mechanism.

Facebook has recommended to use new Facebook Pixel since second half year of 2016, it's better to use the new script and insert them into app/design/frontend[your theme folder]\template\page\html\head.phtml

as following js snippet code:

<script>
!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?
n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;
n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;
t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,
document,'script','https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js');

fbq('init', '590??????????');
fbq('track', "PageView");
fbq('track', 'ViewContent');
fbq('track', 'Search');
fbq('track', 'AddToCart');
fbq('track', 'AddToWishlist');
fbq('track', 'InitiateCheckout');
fbq('track', 'Purchase');
fbq('track', 'Lead');
fbq('track', 'CompleteRegistration');

</script>
<noscript><img height="1" width="1" style="display:none"
src="https://www.facebook.com/tr?id=590???????????&ev=PageView&noscript=1"
/></noscript>
<!-- End Facebook Pixel Code -->

Answer 3

You need to copy the file and the file structure from you base directory to your theme

From:

app / design / frontend / base / default / template / checkout / success.phtml

To:

app / design / frontend / default / yourtheme / template / checkout / success.phtml

Then modify your file with your facebook pixel.

Answer 4

Copy success.phtml from /frontend/base/default/template/checkout/ to /frontend/defaul/default/template/checkout/

Also have a look at the below post for putting facebook conversion code in the head section for effectiveness
