For Developers

Fathom Analytics Conversions provides hooks and helper functions so that plugin and theme developers can fire Fathom conversion events from their own code.

Quick Start

The simplest way to fire a conversion from your plugin:

// Fire a basic conversion event.
add_action( 'wp_footer', function() {
    do_action( 'fac_track_event', 'My Custom Conversion' );
});

// Fire a conversion with a monetary value (in cents, e.g. 1999 = $19.99).
add_action( 'wp_footer', function() {
    do_action( 'fac_track_event', 'Premium Signup', 4999 );
});

The event name you pass here will appear in your Fathom Analytics dashboard. If the event doesn’t exist yet, Fathom will create it automatically on the first fire.

PHP Helper Function

You can also call the helper function directly:

/**
 * fac_track_conversion( string $event_name, int $value = 0 )
 *
 * Outputs a fathom.trackEvent() script tag on the frontend.
 * Must be called during or before wp_footer output.
 *
 * @param string $event_name  Event name (shown in Fathom dashboard).
 * @param int    $value       Optional. Value in cents. Default 0.
 */

add_action( 'wp_footer', function() {
    if ( function_exists( 'fac_track_conversion' ) ) {
        fac_track_conversion( 'Booking Confirmed', 15000 );
    }
});

Both methods automatically check that Fathom Analytics is active and respect excluded user roles — you don’t need to add those checks yourself.

Available Filters

You can customize event names for built-in integrations using these filters:

fac_woocommerce_order_title — Customize the WooCommerce order event name. Default: “WooCommerce Order”.
fac_login_event_title — Customize the login event name. Default: “WP Login”.
fac_registration_event_title — Customize the registration event name. Default: “WP Registration”.
fac_lost_password_event_title — Customize the lost password event name. Default: “WP Lost Password”.

Example:

add_filter( 'fac_woocommerce_order_title', function( $title ) {
    return 'Shop Purchase';
});

Adding a Custom Integration to the Settings Page

Use these filters and actions to add your own integration checkbox to the plugin’s settings page:

// 1. Add a default option.
add_filter( 'fac4wp_global_default_options', function( $defaults ) {
    $defaults['integrate-my-plugin'] = false;
    return $defaults;
});

// 2. Add a checkbox to the Integration section.
add_filter( 'fac4wp_integrate_field_texts', function( $fields ) {
    $fields['integrate-my-plugin'] = [
        'label'           => 'My Plugin',
        'description'     => 'Track conversions from My Plugin.',
        'phase'           => 'fac4wp-phase-stable',
        'plugin_to_check' => 'my-plugin/my-plugin.php',
    ];
    return $fields;
});

// 3. Fire the conversion when your plugin's action completes.
add_action( 'wp_footer', function() {
    $options = get_option( 'fac4wp-options', [] );
    if ( ! empty( $options['integrate-my-plugin'] ) && my_plugin_conversion_happened() ) {
        do_action( 'fac_track_event', 'My Plugin Conversion' );
    }
});

JavaScript API

If you need to fire a Fathom event directly from JavaScript (e.g., after an AJAX action), you can call the Fathom tracking function directly. The Fathom Analytics script exposes a global fathom object:

// Basic event
fathom.trackEvent('My JS Event');

// Event with monetary value (in cents)
fathom.trackEvent('My JS Event', { _value: 1999 });

Note: The fathom object is only available on the frontend when the Fathom Analytics plugin is active and the tracking script has loaded.

Utility Functions

These functions are available for checking the plugin state:

is_fac_fathom_analytic_active() — Returns true if Fathom Analytics tracking is active.
fac_fathom_is_excluded_from_tracking() — Returns true if the current user’s role is excluded.
FAC_Options::get( $key ) — Retrieve a specific plugin option value.
