1. Understanding Google Tag Manager Templates
- Purpose: Templates in GTM are pre-configured setups for common tags. They simplify the process of setting up tracking, marketing, or analytics functionalities.
- Types: There are two main types of templates in GTM - tag templates and variable templates. Tag templates are for third-party services like Google Analytics, while variable templates are used for custom data retrieval.
2. Accessing and Choosing Templates
- Accessing: To access templates, you need to log into your GTM account, select a container, and navigate to the TEMPLATES section.
- Choose Cybba: When using GTM templates, you can search for “Cybba” in the SEARCH GALLERY section and add it to your workspace. The gallery offers templates for various third-party services.
3. Configuring the Template
- Setting Up: Once a template is added, you can follow these steps to implement our tag:
- Create a new tag and name it "Cybba Container Tag".
- Click on TAG CONFIGURATION and select CYBBA.
- Enter the provided CYBBA SITE ID.
- Click on TRIGGERING and select ALL PAGES
4. Publishing the Template
- Version Control: GTM keeps track of changes in versions. When you’re ready to go live, create a new version.
- Publishing: Publish the new version to make your template active on your website..
Please ensure that all tags are properly configured to comply with local privacy laws. It is important to follow your site's consent manager configuration in order to meet the necessary requirements.

Direct placement
1. From your Shopify dashboard navigate to Online Store >> Themes >> click the Actions dropdown menu >> select EDIT CODE >> find the theme.liquid file. Placing our tag here ensures that our code is on all the necessary pages we need to capture information.

The simplest placement for the Javascript is right above the closing </body> tag in the files we request you to place it.
2. In the theme.liquid file, add the JavaScript right above the closing </body> tag so that our code will be placed on all pages outside of the checkout funnel.
3. If you are running Shopify Plus, find the checkout.liquid file (Note: if you do not have Shopify Plus skip to the next step, you will not have a checkout.liquid file). Add the JavaScript right above the closing tag so that our code will be placed on all pages throughout the checkout process.
Placing the Javascript on the Confirmation Page
1. From your Shopify dashboard navigate to Settings >> Checkout.
2. Scroll about halfway down the page to find the Additional Scripts text box. Paste Cybba’s tag into this box, you can add it at the bottom or top just make sure it does not interfere with any other code that may be there already. Adding the code to this text box will ensure the JavaScript is placed on the Confirmation/Thank you page.

If footer installation is not possible, install the code near the bottom of the HTML above the end </BODY> tag.
