Contact Form 7 Data Layer Examples
Learn more about how ListenLayer generates powerful data layers from the activity on your website, specifically from Contact Form 7.
Custom Data Layer Events
Like the ones shown here, generate data layer events when Contact Form 7 activity occurs on your website or landing pages. Collect data and trigger conversions every time forms load, validation fails, or form submissions are successful.
Unlike GTM’s “form submission trigger,” our Listeners are built custom for Contact Form 7, allowing us to improve accuracy and capture more data that is useful to marketing.
event: 'cf7FormLoaded',
event: 'cf7FormSubmitted',
event: 'cf7FormValidationFailed',
Automatic Data Layer Values
ListenLayer pushes critical information from your Contact Form 7 activity into the data layer automatically. For example, every Contact Form 7 form impression, validation failure, and submission include the form ID, form placement & location, and all data submitted by the user.
All data layer values can be captured as variables inside Google Tag Manager to push anywhere you’d like! You can even generate custom data layer values to segment your reporting.
formFieldValues: {
your-name: {
value: 'test',
label: 'Your Name (required)',
name: 'your-name',
type: 'text',
placeholder: 'Your name here'
},
your-email: {
value: '[email protected]',
label: 'Your Email (required)',
name: 'your-email',
type: 'email'
},
},
