Using HTML
If you’re a developer, or you can get the help of a developer, you can easily install a Serviceform Floating bar on BigCommerce using HTML.
To use HTML, you need access to your website code and place the pixel code on the <head> tag. Once you have accessed the <head> tag, place the Serviceform pixel code into your <head> tag.
You can find the pixel code from your Serviceform account.
Where to find the <head> tag in BigCommerce
To find the <head> tag of your BigCommerce website, select ‘storefront’ from the panel on your left. Then click on script manager and select create script. Then name your script and add a description. Then select “head” for page location. And select “all pages” for the pages you want the script to be added.
Then scroll to the bottom of the page and select “script” for script type and paste the Serviceform pixel in the box below. Now you’ve successfully added the Serviceform pixel into the <head> tag of your BigCommerce website.
Using Google Tag Manager
If you don’t feel very comfortable with HTML or any other type of code, you can easily install the Serviceform pixel on your BigCommerce website using Google Tag Manager.
In your Serviceform, select the option to install the Serviceform pixel through Google Tag Manager. Then copy your pixel code.
Afterwards, go to your Google Tag Manager account and click on add a new tag. Then name your tag.
Once you’ve named your tag, click on tag configuration. Then go down the drop down and select custom HTML. Paste the Serviceform pixel that you copied previously into the code area.
Then click on ‘triggering’ and select ‘all pages.’ Then save your work and press submit. In the submission configuration screen, type ‘Adding Serviceform pixel’ into the ‘Version name’ area.
Congratulations! You can now successfully install Serviceform Floating bars on your BigCommerce website.
