Troubleshooting Guide
If your website builder only allows installation of the tracking code in the header and it does not work, it's likely due to the script executing before the Document Object Model (DOM) is fully loaded. This can result in an error like 'Uncaught TypeError: b is undefined.' To resolve this issue, you can place the script in the header, but modify it to run after the DOM has fully loaded.
Here's a code snippet that accomplishes this:
<script> document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { (function (v, i, s, a, t) { v[t] = v[t] || function () { (v[t].v = v[t].v || []).push(arguments); }; if (!v._visaSettings) { v._visaSettings = {}; } v._visaSettings[a] = { v: '1.0', s: a, a: '1', t: t }; var b = i.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]; var p = i.createElement('script'); p.defer = 1; p.async = 1; p.src = s + '?s=' + a; b.appendChild(p); })(window, document, '//app-worker.visitor-analytics.io/main.js', 'INSERT-HERE-YOUR-WEBSITE-ID', 'va'); }); </script>
Important: Replace 'INSERT-HERE-YOUR-WEBSITE-ID' with your actual website ID.
This code ensures that the script runs only after the DOM is ready, preventing the error. However, for most websites, it's often recommended to add scripts to the bottom of the body, as this approach typically avoids such issues altogether.
