How To Add Facebook Pixel In Blocksy Theme?

In this post I will show you how to add Facebook Pixel in Blocksy Theme. It is important to learn this if you interested in tracking all of your Facebook marketing activities.

First of all, I would like to say what is Facebook Pixel.

Facebook Pixel is a small snippet of code that allows you to keep track on how many visitors visit your website via Facebook.

It is important to track and analyze this data if you are using Facebook for lead generation, visitor interactions, or even website conversions.

That being said, if you are running a Facebook Ad about an offer displayed on your website with a landing page connected to that FB Ad. You will need to apply Facebook Pixel to your website or that very page, in order to analyze how many visitors clicked on the Ad and reached that particular page, on your site.

To summarize, Facebook Pixel is like a bridge between your Facebook marketing campaigns and your website.

Add Facebook Pixel In Blocksy Theme

For this, you will need Blocksy Pro and your Facebook Pixel.

Check my latest article explaining what you miss out if you choose Blocksy free instead of Pro.

The Blocksy free version does not come with code snippets. Although, you can install a third party plugin. But, Blocksy Pro even allows for running code snippets on single page or blog post.

This is a much better way than enabling Facebook pixel on the entire Blocksy website. In this way, you do not compromise the entire website’s performance.

Let us start the procedure of enabling Facebook pixel in Blocksy.

Activate Blocksy Custom Code Snippet Extension

To activate Blocksy Custom Code Extension, you should have first installed the Blocksy Companion Pro plugin.

This is the premium plugin that turns Blocksy free theme into powerful Blocksy Pro.

This plugin is only available at Creative Themes, and will be showcased under My Account, once you have purchased your premium subscription.

After copying the Facebook Pixel into the Header Scripts area, hit publish and clear the cache of your browser to see the pixel actively working on your website.

Add Facebook Pixel To Blocksy Page or Post

For adding the Facebook Pixel to a single page or post, do not add the custom code snippet in the Blocksy Theme Customizer.

Instead, add it to a single page or post.

Of course, you will need to go to a Blocksy Single Post or Page, as shown in the image below. On the right-hand side, enable the ‘B’ for Blocksy button to see Blocksy Single Post Settings.
