Install SparkPulse - Setup Guide

1 Your Tracking Snippet

Copy this snippet and paste it into your website's HTML. It goes just before the closing </body> tag on every page you want to track.

2 Install on Your Platform

Choose your platform below for specific instructions:

WordPress

Shopify

Squarespace

Wix

Static HTML

Other

Option A — Plugin (Recommended):

Install the WPCode or "Insert Headers and Footers" plugin
Go to plugin settings → paste the snippet in the "Footer" or "Body" section
Save changes

Option B — Hostinger hPanel:

Websites → Manage your site → Custom Code (or Header Scripts)
Paste in the "Body" or "Footer" section → Save

Option C — Theme File:

Appearance → Theme Editor → footer.php
Paste before </body>

⚠️ Theme updates will overwrite Option C. Use a child theme or a plugin instead.

Online Store → Themes → Edit Code
Open theme.liquid
Paste the snippet before </body>
Save the file

Settings → Advanced → Code Injection
Paste the snippet in the Footer section
Save

Settings → Custom Code → Add New
Paste the snippet, set placement to "Body - end"
Apply to all pages

Open each .html file in your code editor
Paste the snippet just before the closing </body> tag
Save and deploy

The universal rule: paste the snippet just before the closing </body> tag on every page you want to track.

Most platforms have a "Custom Code", "Code Injection", or "Header/Footer Scripts" section in their settings where you can paste it once and it applies to all pages.

3 Verify It Works

Open your website in a browser
Go to your SparkPulse dashboard and select your site
You should see a new pageview within a few seconds
If not, open browser console (F12 → Console) and check for errors

4 Custom Events (Optional)

After the snippet loads, you can fire custom events anywhere on your page using the pulse() function:

pulse('click', {button: 'signup'});
pulse('purchase', {item: 'pro-plan', amount: 29});
pulse('download', {file: 'guide.pdf'});
pulse('signup', {method: 'google'});

Custom events appear in your dashboard under the Events tab.

? Troubleshooting

No data showing?
Make sure the snippet is installed on your live site (not just localhost). Check that the site_key in the snippet matches the site in your dashboard.

CORS errors in console?
Your SparkPulse instance must allow your site's origin. If you're self-hosting, check your server's CORS configuration.

Script not loading?
Verify the snippet is between <body> and </body>, not in <head>. Also check for ad-blockers that might block tracking scripts.

Need help?
Check the browser console (F12) for any red error messages — they usually point to the exact problem.
