Facebook pixel standard event with and without event setup tool:
Event setup is used for website builder. Manually paste code if it's funnel builder. In case you don't show separate ty page and only success msg, obviously use only event setup tool.
Always prefer pasting code instead of event setup. Event setup may not show in pixel helper too, plus glitches.
Agree, that's why I went through the manual steps. Always more accurate and event setup tool doesn't always work.
EL… I know its been 1 year, but please can you be of help to be. I have been struggling to set this up.
Having sooo many pixels for one website. I always find it strange that people have multiple pixels on a site, or 'backup' pixels. Incredible video.
I agree! Thank you!
Thanks so much, this was best by far the best tutorial, easy to follow and straight to the point.
Glad you liked it! Thanks! -Jason

Really well presented, thanks
Thank you so much for this video
Wow this is amazing. Thank you so much.
thank you this was really useful, I was looking for someone to make an accurate tutorial like this
Glad to hear it. Thank you for your kind words. -Jason
Thank you so much. This was the most helpful video. The meta pixel set up was complicated thank you for saving my sanity LOL
Very helpful, thank you :D
Great video! thanks a lot :)
Best video on Facebook Pixels on UA-cam. Thank you!!!!!
Wonderful 👌Your way of explanation is amazing. Thank you so much!
Glad you found this to be helpful! -Jason
Best video on Pixels on UA-cam!! 10/10!
Thanks a lot for this very helpful... I'm a little confused and I hope that you would be able to help me.
So the thing is, what if I have two different lead magnets and each of these lead magnets lead people to two different pages after they sign up, can I still use the same standard event for both pages or do you suggest I use a custom conversion to track these pages individually.
Nice and clear explanation! Thank you! Will the button event tool work just by typing the text on the button?
It will automatically find the buttons on the page for you and highlight them!
Great detailed and granular breakdown of the whole process. Only thing that raised a red flag was around 9:53 regarding counting a button click as a lead event. Technically yes but really isn't the redirect page (thank you or confirmation) where the lead event should be counted?
thank you very very helpfull
I can’t thank you enough for this 🤗
Thanks for the help
I'm glad you enjoied it!
thank you so much for this.
You're so welcome!
Thank you!!!!!!
Probably 1 of the best videos I've seen. I'm no pro, but note, you MAY want to edit, "you certainly don't need 2 pixels in the real estate example..." but you would want 2 pixels when it comes to audiences (for us, it's a B2B pixel tracked on landing/business pages, Consumer Pixel tracked sitewide) if using an alternate integration (ie. Hubspot or other list synch tool)
THO, I do have questions if events are redundant on fb vs google tag manager... any help!?!?
very informative and useful video
She is amazing, I love her videos.
Thank you so much!
Well explained
Hi Allie, thanks for this great video and content. I have one thing not clear. I use Elementor as website Bulider and i want to track the event "CompleteRegistration" on my download site. Do I have to add the 3 row event code in Elementor on the download Page? Where exactly would I position that code?
Thanks a lot for your feedback.
Michael
could you please do a video for Clickbank tracking pixel - to track the purchase. very appreciate your channel
Great Content. One question though, I set up an event ( add to cart on my add to cart button) its receiving data although when I use the Facebook test event for add to cart, it comes up as just a page view when I hit the event button?
Does this mean it's not tracking properly ?
Hey Allie, in the example you did you say you didn't install the code on the entire funnel's settings, only on the individual page. Are you installing the code on each page you're tracking an event, plus the event code below it?
SUPER VALUEBLE STUFF.really
So glad you liked it!
Great Information! I'm hoping you can help....at the 4:49 mark, the Set Up Events page, we mistakenly clicked Cancel. We now have no idea how to get back to that page to continue the process. We are brand new at this and at a complete loss! Any suggestions?
What is the difference between Facebook Pixel and Standard events? and your videos are awesome!
Allie is 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!!!
Excellent video! Thank you very much. Could you tell me if you have any content on Event Match Quality Scoring? Messages in my Facebook event manager are asking me to send some event parameters and increase coverage for others. If you could tell me where I can find this content, I would greatly appreciate it!
Hey can you provide the same setup tour for wix??
You’re amazing
Wonderful
Great video but I kinda got lost. At minute 6:50, you go to where I think is your website. You pull down settings and paste. I cannot find theses options on the landing page of my store. Did I miss something?? Thanks in advanced.
Im trying to set up on Wix & when I go to input manual code in my header it adds the pixel but it doesnt set it up properly & I am unable to set up an event trigger because of it. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but Ive been stuck on it for the last few days. Can anyone help?
The vid was great by the way. Clear & concise. I want to watch more of this content but I cannot get past setting it up lol
Do I have to use Facebook business manager for pixel
Yes, you'll set up your pixel in business manager before you can use it.
Hey which app Or website you use for blur moving object?
Which funnel builder are you using? I know of wordpress but I've never heard of a funnel builder
How does this only have 13k views? Thanks for being so clear and articulate.
Share it to get the word out! :) So glad it was helpful for you!
what if someone had already installed facebook code through event setup tool on website. Now in order to install it manually ,should it be deleted from event setup tool?
What app is good for funnels?
Hi, installed the pixel and set up the event. The event is showing up as active my events manager, it's green. However, I am only seeing pageview in the pixel helper. I did not set the event manually. I used the set up helper and selected to track the submit button. Is it save to assume the set up was done correctly even though its not showing up in the pixel helper?
I was trying to install pixel from fb pixel helper, but the pixel I’d is not matching with own I’d. so please help to set it up right. Thanks
Hello, what about installing event pixel on wordpress website?
when setting up standard events using the pixel, am I only able to set up one standard event or multiple?
You’re so awesome,
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
This is great. It seems though that FB updates their business manager every three months because nothing is where I can find it. It is frustrating. Thanks for all the info though.
Hello! I'm trying to install a Pixel to use with ToneDen and I am hopelessly stuck because since FB changed to Meta, everything looks super different. Can someone please help?
is there an updated video? seems mine looks different than this one
What is the site you're testing the links on
I've put in my pixel and using the extenstion on google, its working. But the standard event in the pixel doesnt. On my google extension i get this warning
We detected event code but the pixel has not activated for this event, so no information was sent to Facebook. This could be due to an error in the code, but could also occur if the pixel fires on a dynamic event such as a button click.
Has anybody had this?
6:39 How do you find the equivalent on Thrice architect.
Great 😊👍
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this video. I have setup my pixel and events, linked it to my ad account, tested it, setup a Campaign, an Adset and an Ad.
When I try to publish my ad, I get an error on the Adset, saying a Pixel is required. Any advice will be appreciated 😊
its solved?
how we can access that which product is purchased by the customer
It says pixels disabled what does that mean this is my first time doing jt
Thank you , i couldn't add the pixel because m not using shoppify of wordpress or any other famous site , do you have another methode that i can use thanks in advance
you can do it with manual code
Informational Education
Is it possible to add standard events WITHOUT launching the events setup tool?
Wait, so you first have to add the events by code and then do it, again, with the even tool configuration? And it doesnt count your events x2?
No, I just show both ways to do it because some times the event setup tool doesn't work. I prefer to use the manual code, but some people prefer event setup too! Both give the same result, as long as EST works!
@@AllieBloyd Thanks !
Hi, I'm creating a campaign in Facebook add and got this message under CONVERSION EVENT '' This event hasn’t been prioritized for iOS 14.5. Ad sets using this event may not be delivered to people who opt out of tracking on iOS 14.5 or later devices'' Can you please tell me how do I fix it I would really appreciate it. Thank you so much
So, do we have first to set up a FB pixel code to our wordpress websites and then set up CAPI? Because i saw, that when setting up CAPI, i can create a pixel and then connect it with the facebook pixel plug in.
You will have that option in wordpress, but not everyone will be able to do that. I personally prefer to set up the pixel first and then connect it to make sure I've done all the steps listed in this video, but you can opt for that if it's easier for you based on what you're using!
Should I use the conversions api or just add the pixel manually?
I add the pixel code and then use CAPI for my event tracking. The pixel manually will not account for browser events on ios products if they've opted out of tracking (which is most everyone)
I want to help install the pixel on the wordpress for a fee
She is smart!
Thank you!
Facebook says regulated verticals cant use event setup tool :/
Can you have multiple of the same event pixel under one Ad Account / Main pixel? Like if you have various separate brands in Ad Account A and you have the main Pixel A installed on various websites. You want to set up purchase pixels for a few brands under Pixel A but want them to be different so if Brand B and Brand C are running ads at the same time, we don't want Brand B getting purchase pixel data from Brand C.
you can set up multiple Pixels even if it is under the same Ad Account. Each Pixel can track different sets of Events.s.
in your case, you will want different Pixels setup for every Campaign you are running. make sure you're tracking separate events from each campaign you are running for each Brand. keep things clean.
How do i track the event manually ?...I created my pages with elementor. The Facebook event setup tool has refused to highlight for tracking some very important buttons on my landing page built with Elementor on wordpress.....I need your help!
You want to install the events manually following the steps in the video on the pages someone would hit AFTER clicking the button. That's the real measure of what someone is doing. The event setup tool is glitchy and doesn't always work in every scenario, which is why I prefer using the manual code whenever possible.
@@AllieBloyd Thanks, I finally figured it out. Thanks
This whole thing is really confusing me I am using tone Den I have put my pixel code into the correct section on tone den but Facebook ads just consistently tells me I need to verify my pixel by putting the code into the website which I cannot do because it is via tone den all it lets me do is put my pixel code in which I have already done
I have a html website. No plugins. That is where I get lost. Any suggestions? By the way, I am a true novice at this. I really don't know what I am doing. I need the help for sure.
You need to install the pixel code manually as shown in this video. Put the main pixel code in the header of the HTML, then use something like CAPI or Event Setup Tool to track your events (I Prefer CAPI after ios 14)
how do you verify, a pixel when your using a subdomain
You don't verify the subdomain, only the root domain.
