How can I trigger a JS event when a button is clicked in Webflow to track goals or conversions using the Plausible.io analytics tool?
To trigger a JavaScript (JS) event when a button is clicked in Webflow and track goals or conversions using the Plausible.io analytics tool, you can follow these steps:
- Install and set up the Plausible.io analytics tool:

Access the Designer in Webflow and locate the button you want to track the click event on.

Under the Interactions tab, click on the '+' icon to add a new interaction.
Choose the desired trigger for the event. In this case, select the 'Click' trigger.
In the action section, select 'Run JavaScript'.
Write the JS code that will send an event to Plausible.io when the button is clicked. Use the following code as a template:
<script>document.querySelector('#button-id').addEventListener('click', function() { plausible('goal-name');});</script>
Replace button-id
with the ID of your button element, and goal-name
with the name of the goal or conversion you want to track in Plausible.io.
Paste the modified JS code into the 'Run JavaScript' input field in Webflow.
Save and publish your Webflow site.
When users click on the specified button, the JS code will trigger the Plausible.io event and track the specified goal or conversion.
