website only firing standard google ads tag but not gtag
I have the following "standard" google site tag tracking conversions on my page:
<!-- Google Code for sale Conversion Page --> <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var google_conversion_id = AW-MYAWID; var google_conversion_language = "en"; var google_conversion_format = "3"; var google_conversion_color = "ffffff"; var google_conversion_label = "MY_LABEL"; if (1.0) { var google_conversion_value = <?php echo round($order_total['value'],2);?>; } var google_remarketing_only = false; /* ]]> */ </script> script type="text/javascript" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js"> </script> <noscript> <div style="display:inline;"> <img height="1" width="1" style="border-style:none;" alt="" src="//www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/AW-MYAWID/?value=<?php echo round($order_total['value'],2);?>&label=MY_LABEL&guid=ON&script=0"/> </div> </noscript> Directly below that I have:
<script type="text/javascript"> gtag('event', 'conversion', { 'send_to': 'AW-MYAWID/MYLABEL', 'value': <?php echo round($order_total['value'],2);?>, 'currency': 'CAD', 'transaction_id': '' }); </script> <!--google enhanced conversions !--> <script type="text/javascript"> gtag('set', 'user_data', { "email": <?php echo $customer_info['email_address'];?>, "phone_number": <?php echo $customer_info['telephone'];?>, "address": { "first_name": <?php echo $customer_info['firstname']; ?>, "last_name": <?php echo $customer_info['lastname']; ?>, "street": <?php echo $customer_info['street_address'];?>, "city":<?php echo $customer_info['city'];?>, "region": <?php echo $customer_info['state'];?>, "postal_code": <?php echo $customer_info['postcode'];?> } }); </script> This is in my header:
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-MYUAUD"></script> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} gtag('js', new Date()); gtag('config', 'AW-MYAWID') ; gtag('config', 'UA-MYUAUD'); </script> in tag assistant the CDATA tag is showing but for the global site tag it shows the tag with no metadata etc. am I missing something? Why is only the standard version seem to fire the event?
