Facebook Conversion Tracking Pixels
Facebook Conversion Tracking
Similar to the Google Conversion Tracking, I would like to embed Facebook's tracking pixel to see who is clicking on a Facebook ad or my Page and then going to my Zenfolio site. Specifically the shopping cart so I can track ROI.

I've just managed to install the pixel onto custom pages of my Zenfolio site by using the "manually install pixel" option. Using the 'source' button at the top of the custom page editor you can copy and paste the pixel code into there.
I also managed to get it onto my homepage by copying and pasting the pixel code into my welcome message using this same method. Hope this helps some of you! It's 100% working as I installed the Chrome extension 'Facebook Pixel Helper' and it's showing.

It's a fairly simple cut and paste to connect a pixel on other sites... Please add

I'm looking into SmugMug to see if it is possible with them. I strongly want the ability to add the Facebook Pixel and to also integrate with MailChimp because I don't see a way add a "join now" type of button to each page for people to sign up for a mailing list. These are two critical things for business owners!

I really think this is needed. It's about one year ago I asked the same qu. Quite surprised Zenfolio hasn't professed this as I'm sure many people use FB as a marketing tool.

Hi Karuzela
I created a custom page I wanted to drive wedding traffic to here
https://www.simonpearephotography.com/wedding-photography-dublinand pasted the facebook pixel code into the top of the page. You can access the code by clicking the source button where you create the custom page. Hope this helps
Thanks

Hi Simon! This solution works only for the specific page, doesn't it? Did you create some sort of landing page? How does it work? Thanks!

Have you tried creating a custom page and put in a header with the Facebook pixel. I tried it and FB recognized it

because I want a site that can do the fulfillment for me (I don't know of others), I kept zenfolio but I have a wordpress site with almost the exact domain name that I do SEO work on. then my menu for the galleries points back to zenfolio where people can order etc. I also have the facebook pixel, google analytics, etc on the wordpress site. Not an ideal solution, but the work around I'm taking. haven't figured out what to do about the blog and the comments - maybe I'll keep both ???

Gorgeous Moments... Thanks! Wow, in other words they are doing nothing on this. too bad. Looking into other website providers now,

Hey Wendy - I got a response from the few times during the last couple of years and it was... Zenfolio is always reading at customer's comments, recommendations and suggestions (right,...) and striving to implement all the needed features to stay in line with marketing,... blah blah blah...
However, this particular topic is not yet on the list for changes to be implemented in short or medium period of time :) lol...

They can't fix it easily due to major changes needed to their website idea which is... You don't have access to the <head> section, as Jeffrey said - layouts are outdated and I don't even want to start with very bad practices of SEO and its features... I was "smacked" back with so many times when requested for changes and tweaks for SEO. They don't recognize that and completely ignoring it.
Their main focus is on selling (and taking fees), so, unfortunately, I have given up and already setting up a new website and crying as blog transfer is such a pain in the... :( I'll keep zenfolio under subdomain for all my clients' galleries and selling, while everything else is going away.
So sad...

Has there been any response at all to this as yet from Zenfolio, any eta as to when this may happen? Wow, I see the original question was in 2013! I guess that says all we need to know, they have no interest in getting this done.
