Hi Vickymedia,
This plugin is meant to be used with “selectors”.
It seems that you might need a developer to help you as your code seems a little out of the ordinary. Typically if you want to track a click on an item all you need to do is place in the selector of the item in the Plugin. For instance if you want to track a click on this item

<a href="somelink.html" class="class-name">Link</a>

you would use the selector
.class-name

I notice that in your code above you have a dot in your class name, which is usually not in the markup.

Hello,

Thanks for the help will remove the dot from the class and test.

this code is an outbound link for.

Thanks,
Vicky

Hello,

have tested after removing the DOT still not working.

the above code is an outbound link

Thanks,
Vicky

Hi Vicky,
The dot was just one issue I found with your code. There seems to be many others and it looks like your not using the Plugin correctly. At this point I can’t offer much help. I would suggest you have another Developer review your code and the Plugin.

Hello,

Thanks for reply may be I am not using the plugin properly may be after viewing the steps provided by you. still I might be making the entries incorrectly.

Can you give an example what to enter in this fields :

TItle Discription : what should i add here do I have to use this title next to ID or Class in the code
Selector/Element : (this would be mostly ID or class)
Category : what should I add here
Action (onmouseclick) : advttaboolabelowarticle
label :advttaboolabelowarticle_{ITEM_TITLE}_{PAGE_URL}_{PAGE_RELATIVE_URL}_{LINK_URL}_{LINK_RELATIVE_URL}_{IMAGE_SRC}_{IMAGE_ALT}_{TAG_HTML}

action name and label have to be same ?

thanks,
Vicky

The main issue your having is with the Selector/Element.
If you want to target an ID you need to use the #id
if you want to target a class then you use the .class
This follows jQuery selectors.
