great tutorial, thank you. i just changed the label to {{Click Text}} so I can track the name of the file (as long as it is not "Click here to download") as opposed to the URL. Can't wait to watch the 2hr tutorial.
Great video very helpful. I'm having some issues setting it up... even after setting up a PDF trigger, I only get page hits would be super grateful for any help !
Hello. I got lost on 6:24. I don't think I have the right GA Settings.. I only have Select Settings Variable and New Variable on my dropdown is there a previous tutorial somewhere? please help... thanks so much!
You need to first create a variable and give it a name. Then only when you create a tag, you will be able to see the created variable from the dropdown list. Hope this help.
2:14 Strangely, I can't find the "Click URL" variable. Even if I click on "New variable", I doesn't appear. I can only choose "Page URL". Where can I find it? Many thanks
KarmaCultcha you have to enable it under Variables -> System Variables. Tick the box to turn it on. (I'm not in front of computer, System may not be correct word, but it is at top of Variables screen)
Ashish Bhatnagar you COULD just add it to pages with downloads, but I recommend you add it to all pages. This should be a 5 min job as most modern websites use template files. Just add it in the header code.
Great Video, but do tell me one thing, i have created goals in Google Analytics as well and now i want to track PDF file which is in my wordpress site, so what should i add in that < a href link> to make this possible? Thanks

Thanks a lot. But is there any way to track the "save as" downloads?
Thanks so much, really easy to follow video and super useful.
You’re welcome, Pauline

If you download a pdf file then send it to someone else through a messenger does it record their download? Or just the initial from the website
The video gets blurry at 1:45 and remains so throughout. I unsure what text you put in from 3:00 - 4:18
LeMans Robinson if you watch it on a computer (not phone), expand window, and make sure you Internet is good, you'll be able to make everything out.
LeMans Robinson it's fine for me. Please check your internet connection.

Danatron yes, if you are using a local development server.
