Hola,
Here’s the link to the site I’m working on.

Here’s the code that I’ve got in the header (using the Header and Footer Scripts WordPress plugin):

<script type="text/javascript">
(function(a,e,c,f,g,b,d){var
h={ak:"968921182",cl:"bM8tCKj_52UQ3qCCzgM"};a[c]=a[c]||
function(){(a[c].q=a[c].q||[]).push(arguments)};a[f]||
(a[f]=h.ak);b=e.createElement(g);b.async=1;b.src="//www.gstatic.com/wcm/loader.js";d=e.getElementsByTagName(g)[0];d.parentNode.insertBefore(b,d);a._googWcmGet=function(b,d,e){a[c](2,b,h,d,null,new
Date,e)}})(window,document,"_googWcmImpl","_googWcmAk","script");
</script>

Here’s the code in the footer:

<script type="text/javascript">
var google_replace_number="(888) 280 - 4878";
(function(a,e,c,f,g,b,d){var h={ak:"968921182",cl:"bM8tCKj_52UQ3qCCzgM"};a[c]=a[c]||function(){(a[c].q=a[c].q||[]).push(arguments)};a[f]||(a[f]=h.ak);b=e.createElement(g);b.async=1;b.src="//www.gstatic.com/wcm/loader.js";d=e.getElementsByTagName(g)[0];d.parentNode.insertBefore(b,d);a._googWcmGet=function(b,d,e){a[c](2,b,h,d,null,new Date,e)}})(window,document,"_googWcmImpl","_googWcmAk","script");
</script>

Now I am being told that I have to add a second piece of JavaScript code to using the _googWcmGet() function with these parameters:

_googWcmGet(target, business_number, options)

I’m supposed to add it between the body tags. I am at a loss on this part.
BTW, I am thankfully using a child theme. Any and all help is appreciated.

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! Please check the following example post on how to integrate an external javascript code (https://community.theme.co/forums/topic/google-analytics-18/#post-1098591).

Hope that helps.

I’m sorry but the code in that post is for Google Analytics. I’m trying to get their adwords call tracking code working. What do I need to do?

Hi there,

You just need to follow the example and replace with your code. Add the following code into your child theme’s functions.php file.

add_action('wp_head', 'my_adwords_header');
function my_adwords_header() {
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>
(function(a,e,c,f,g,b,d){var
h={ak:'968921182',cl:'bM8tCKj_52UQ3qCCzgM'};a[c]=a[c]||
function(){(a[c].q=a[c].q||[]).push(arguments)};a[f]||
(a[f]=h.ak);b=e.createElement(g);b.async=1;b.src='//www.gstatic.com/wcm/loader.js';d=e.getElementsByTagName(g)[0];d.parentNode.insertBefore(b,d);a._googWcmGet=function(b,d,e){a[c](2,b,h,d,null,new
Date,e)}})(window,document,'_googWcmImpl','_googWcmAk','script');
</script>";
}

To add the code into your footer, add the following code (basically place it below the above code).

add_action('wp_footer', 'my_adowrds_footer');
function my_adowrds_footer() {
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>
var google_replace_number='(888) 280 - 4878';
(function(a,e,c,f,g,b,d){var h={ak:'968921182',cl:'bM8tCKj_52UQ3qCCzgM'};a[c]=a[c]||function(){(a[c].q=a[c].q||[]).push(arguments)};a[f]||(a[f]=h.ak);b=e.createElement(g);b.async=1;b.src='//www.gstatic.com/wcm/loader.js';d=e.getElementsByTagName(g)[0];d.parentNode.insertBefore(b,d);a._googWcmGet=function(b,d,e){a[c](2,b,h,d,null,new Date,e)}})(window,document,'_googWcmImpl','_googWcmAk','script');
</script>";
}

Hope that helps.

ok, the code has been added, but the google forwarding number doesn’t appear to be showing up. what am i missing? also, do i remove the code in my first post above from the header/footer plugin?

Hi there,

Yes, you’ll have to remove them.

It may not take effect in real time. Would you mind providing a procedure on how we could see the issue? Perhaps it’s the call icon on google index page ?

Thanks!

Hi There,

1.) From this #1109537 reply above, just add the first set of code on your functions.php file.

2.) Then remove the second code suggested from this reply #1109537.
Then you may add the next line of code on Appearance > Customize > Custom > Edit Global Javascript:

_googWcmGet('number', '1-888-280-4878')

The number of that line of code is your target parameter. We need to add it on your phonenumber class field. Go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Topbar Content
Update the following line of code:
<a href="tel:+18882804878">Call Us: (888) 280 - 4878</a>
To this:
<a href="tel:+18882804878" class="number">Call Us: (888) 280 - 4878</a>

Hope this helps.
