Ghost

Ghost ships with code injection built in, so Clickport installs in under a minute: one paste in the Site Header field and every post and page is tracked. Works on Ghost(Pro) on every plan, including Starter, and on any self-hosted Ghost.

Install the snippet

  1. In Clickport, add your site and copy your tracking snippet:
<script defer data-domain="yoursite.com"
  src="https://clickport.io/tracker.js"></script>
  1. In Ghost Admin, go to Settings, then Advanced, then Code injection.
  2. Paste the snippet into Site Header.
  3. Save. The change applies to every page immediately.
  4. Open your site in a fresh tab and check the realtime view in Clickport.

Good to know

  • Site Header injection covers everything: posts, pages, tag archives, and your homepage, including content you publish later.
  • Ghost also offers per-post code injection in the editor sidebar. You do not need it for Clickport; it is useful for one-off experiments like flagging a special page with a custom event.
  • Ghost themes render normal page loads, so there is nothing SPA-specific to configure.
  • Newsletter links are a classic source of untagged "Direct" traffic. Tag the links in your emails with UTM parameters so subscribers show up as their own campaign. See UTM Tracking.
  • Exclude your own visits while writing. See Exclude Your Visits.
