Hi  
I’m relatively new to rails.  
I want to place conversion tracking code on a site, on the  
confirmation page for signups and sales.  
I have separate code for each type of conversion, but I cant figure  
out how to place it so it works. The same page is used for signups and  
sales, using conditional statements to determine whether it displays  
confirmation about a signup or a sale. I tried putting the code in the  
conditional statements, so that it would track the right thing. I was  
able to try test conversions for signups, and when I viewed the  
source, i saw the code snippet, but it didnt display the google stats  
text box thing that is supposed to be displayed on the confirmation  
page. Also, no conversions ever showed up in the adwords report. It  
stayed at 0.  
I think I must have placed the code in the wrong place. I read on  
google that it needs to be placed in a portion of the page with static  
html, but the page is dynamic, and it depends on which activity you  
are doing what it displays on the page.  
I would greatly appreciate your help.  
Thanks

U don’t have modify any code in rails. I have installed restful auth  
plugin so I know users who complete the signip process will go to /  
users URL. I have setup a daily report via google analytics that  
isvsent via email. It shows me the percentage of users who reach that  
page. So I know the conversion rate is very close to that figure.
