Adding Indeed tracker to the Thank You page

  • lydbrueg
    Asked on February 10, 2015 at 2:59 PM

    I'm working with Indeed to have an apply URL from their site to our website to fill out our job application. They have a person source code tracker I need to put into our thank you page or somewhere so they know what applicants are coming from Indeed. They said to put this in the Thank You page. Everytime I enter in the HTML when editing the Thank You page it erases it every time. How do I add this source code to the for so it isn't seen and so Indeed can track their candidates.

     

    Thank You,

    Lydia

    Could you please tell us what is the code that you would need to add to thank you page Lydia?

    I presume that this involves some javascript as well?

    This is the same for me to:  here is the code below:

     

    <!-- Begin INDEED conversion code -->
    <script type="text/javascript">
    /* <![CDATA[ */
    var indeed_conversion_id = 'XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX';
    var indeed_conversion_label = '';
    /* ]]> */
    </script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="//conv.indeed.com/pagead/conversion.js">
    </script>
    <noscript>
    <img height=1 width=1 border=0 src="//conv.indeed.com/pagead/conv/XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX/?script=0">
    </noscript>
    <!-- End INDEED conversion code -->

    what I did was redirect after THANK YOU to my jimdo website where I created a THANK YOU PAGE and placed the indeed.com tracking code there.

    You would not be able to use the javascript Lydia. Just as you have mentioned it will remove the script every time.

    Now since they only need to get info that someone went and submitted the form we can do this in 2 different ways:

    1. as mentioned by aaviles769 above, to redirect them to a page on your website where that code can be added.

    2. to add this code to your thank you page instead:

    <img height=1 width=1 border=0 src="//conv.indeed.com/pagead/conv/{id}/?script=0">

    The {id} will be a unique number representing your submission. Now if it must have a specific format of the value (a minus/dash after 4 digits) we can substitute this with the data from a field on the jotform: {somefiled} instead of {id}, but if it is not important the {id} will do the trick.

    This will work with the tracker and will not get erased by our thank you page wizard.

    Do let us know if you have any questions and we would be happy to assist.
