Hi all,

I’m trying to exclusively track link clicks with the Piwik TagManager.

The page is firing an event (gtm.linkClick) on link clicks that doesn’t fire on regular clicks.

How can I configure the click trigger to only trigger on gtm.linkClick and not stg.Click? My first instinct is a custom variable, but I’m not sure which variable would be used to relate to the event name.

Thx in advance!

Hi there!

Every click on the page has a parameter called `Click URL` (you can see it in debug mode, when you click on `stg.Click` in events log and go to `Variables`). Regular clicks have this parameter set to `undefined`, so based on that you can adjust the trigger to fire only when Click URL it’s set.

Here’s a handy article if you want to learn more about click trigger and conditions you can set: [Click trigger | Piwik PRO help center](https://help.piwik.pro/support/tag-manager/click-trigger/) 😄

Thank you Sara… the answer is so obvious now that you’ve pointed it out.

I’ve solved the problem by adding the condition ‘Click URL contains .’ to my triggers.
