Hello,
I have a toolset map hidden link with about 40 markers.
I would like to track the "opening" of those markers by clicks on the map, in order to be able to know which are more frequently opened by visitors.
How may I :
1- Add a class or listener to detect the click with GTM ?
2- Get the marker's title to store in the "label" in GTM ?
Thank you.

Hi Roman,

Thank you for waiting.

1- Add a class or listener to detect the click with GTM ?

- As explained in another support thread ( https://toolset.com/forums/topic/looking-for-event-on-infowindow-open/#post-491692 ), you can add a click listener event for each map marker, using custom script.

For example, the following code will show the title of the marker in a popup, when it will be clicked.


jQuery( document ).ready( function( $ ) {
    jQuery( document ).on( 'js_event_wpv_addon_maps_init_map_completed',function(event_settings) {
        var markers = WPViews.view_addon_maps.markers;
        var map='map-1';
        for(var marker in markers[ map ]) {
            markers[ map ][marker].addListener('click', function() {
                alert(this['title']);
            });
        }
    });
});

2- Get the marker's title to store in the "label" in GTM ?

- Once, you have the information about the clicked marker, the next step would be to push it to the Google Tag Manager for tracking, using the "dataLayer".
