Tracking Pop Up Form Submission Events with GTM
-
Hello,
I'm currently tracking contact form submissions any time a user clicks 'Submit' on a pop-up form. Once the form is submitted, the URL of the page remains the same (there is no /thank-you page or such like), hence needing to fire the Event based on a click.
Problem is, even if the form is not actually submitted and a user just clicks the Submit button without filling in the fields, the Event will still fire.
I know there is a way to ensure the Event ONLY fires when the form is actually submitted for real, but I don't know how to implement that in GTM.
Any help most appreciated
Cheers,
Gill.

Wherever you can edit the thank you message, trigger an event - https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/analyticsjs/events

Ah yes there is a "Thanks for your message" text - what kind of trigger do you use to fire that?
-
Its all about firing the event code at the right time and that depends on how your form works.
What happens after a successful form submission? Many times, you want to display a message along the lines of "Your Submission was Received", and that is when you want to fire off the GA code.

Google Analytics - Tracking multiple thankyou pages?
Hi Guys, I want to track email opt-ins for multiple thank you pages. The setup is as follows: http://image.prntscr.com/image/57632e05a15f42fda0b8ffec2d176460.png I have not yet built the thank you pages, so i was wondering what the URL should be to make it easy to track them in GA? I'm thinking: domain.com/thankyou-page/page1 Then using regular expression in GA to track /thankyou-page/ Would this be a good way to go about it? Cheers. f6c7r0

How to track subfolders in GA?
Is it possible to get the visitor statistics for a subfolder (example.com/blog/) in Google Analytics? I already have GA tracking set-up like normal, and visitors do get logged, but to see data only for /blog/ I have to go to Content > Site Content > All pages and search for "/blog/". Should I create a new profile in Google Analytics? Or is there a better way to only see stats for a subfolder?

How can I capture search terms and forward it along with my contact form?
I would like to be able to capture the keywords when someone comes to my site with a PPC click or a keyword search. I can't imagine that this is an uncommon request, but I can't find the tools that would let me do that, or heck something that will help me build it myself. What is everyone using to capture search information from people who contact you?
