How do I install Zenovay on WordPress or Shopify?

Quick reference for installing Zenovay on the two most common platforms, with links to the full setup guides for each.

Both WordPress and Shopify let you paste the Zenovay tracker into a "header code" field — there is no plugin or app to install. Here are the short versions; full guides are linked at the bottom.

WordPress (manual install)

There is no official WordPress plugin. Add the tracker manually one of two ways.

Option 1: Edit your theme's header.php

<script
  defer
  data-tracking-code="YOUR_TRACKING_CODE"
  src="https://api.zenovay.com/z.js"
></script>

Place it just before the closing </head> tag.

Option 2: Use functions.php

function zenovay_tracking_script() {
    ?>
    <script
      defer
      data-tracking-code="YOUR_TRACKING_CODE"
      src="https://api.zenovay.com/z.js"
    ></script>
    <?php
}
add_action('wp_head', 'zenovay_tracking_script');

This survives theme updates better than editing header.php directly.

Shopify

Shopify lets you add custom code to your theme without touching the underlying files.

  1. Open the theme code editor

    In the Shopify admin, go to Online Store → Themes → Customize → Edit code on the theme you want to track.

  2. Open theme.liquid

    In the file tree, expand Layout and open theme.liquid.

  3. Paste before </head>

    Add the tracker script just before the closing </head> tag:

    <script
      defer
      data-tracking-code="YOUR_TRACKING_CODE"
      src="https://api.zenovay.com/z.js"
    ></script>
    
  4. Save

    Click Save. The tracker is now live on every page of your storefront.

Where to find your tracking code

For both platforms, replace YOUR_TRACKING_CODE with the value from app.zenovay.comSettings → Tracking Code (it looks like zv_abc123xyz).

E-commerce events

Out of the box, the script tracks page views — that's it. To track Shopify checkouts, abandoned carts, or WooCommerce orders, you'll need to fire custom events. See the platform-specific full guides linked below — both have working code samples.

Verifying installation

After saving the code:

  1. Open your storefront in a private window.
  2. Wait 30 seconds.
  3. Check the Live tab of your Zenovay dashboard. Your visit should appear.

If it doesn't, see first event not appearing.
