Pixel
-
Hello,
I have a shop in facebook and Instagram, but they are not updating at all. I sell and add items all of the time, so these (fb and ig) MUST stay current with my website. I’ve gone to WordPress, Marketing to see what is going on and this is what I get when I try to start over:
“Get more website purchases You need to have a pixel that have fired pixel event.”
I have no idea what this means. None. This is a mess. If FB and IG will not sync constantly and instantly with my WordPress website, then they are pointless.
Help, please! THANK YOU!!

I mainly just need to make sure that FB and IG are syncing, which they are not currently. They are still showing items that are no longer for sale on my website and new items on my website are not showing up in FB and IG.
Looking at my facebook shop, it has not been updated since last on April 1, 2022.
It must update constantly. Otherwise, there is no point in having it as it is incorrect.

Hello,
When using Facebook for WooCommerce, you will need a Pixel account, Pixel is an analytics tool that will help with your campaigns.
More info: https://woocommerce.com/document/facebook-for-woocommerce/#connect-your-facebook-account
To check this much better, could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? It is under WooCommerce > Status. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.?
Thanks.

Hello! I’m just checking in. The FB and IG still does not match my website. I don’t know what to do to fix it. Thank you so much for any help that you may offer!
Hi @sleeneys ,
The error message you’re encountering suggests that you need to install the Facebook pixel on your website in order for the Facebook for WooCommerce integration to work properly.
The Facebook pixel is a small piece of code that tracks visitor behavior on your website, allowing you to track conversions and gather data for ad targeting.
To resolve this issue, you’ll need to follow the steps shared in the guides provided by @ihereira here.
Additionally, you can read more about creating and installing a Pixel on your site, here.
After you’ve completed these steps, you should be able to use the Facebook for WooCommerce integration to keep your shop on Facebook and Instagram up-to-date with your website.
Please confirm if you have already done this and if the issue persists.
Cheers!
Good morning!
Thank you so much for this info and your help! I have been looking for the WordPress header for about 1.5 hours. The closest I have come is under Appearance and Theme Editor. But the only header code that I have seen is:
- DO NOT ADD SCRIPTS HERE
- USE a plugin like : https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/header-and-footer-scripts/
* - This is commented out on purpose, it keeps plugins for incorrectly stating errors <?phpwp_head(); ?>
and
get_template_part( ‘templates/head’ ); ?>
I cannot for the life of me find <head> <script> </script> I KNOW I NEED TO PASTE HERE </head>
Hello @sleeneys,
If I understand you correctly, the plugin isn’t syncing your site with Facebook probably.
Syncing problems are usually fixed by resetting the plugin connection, deleting the catalog&re-adding it or checking the plugin’s settings.
If that doesn’t help, then I’ll ask you to provide us with more information about the problem. For example; are all products not syncing or just a certain detail like stock or price?
It would be also very helpful if you can attach some screenshots as well of that pixel message in the dashboard, you can use https://snipboard.io/ to upload it.
Cheers!Hello,
Thank you so much! Yes, they are not syncing. I need to add the pixel code to the header. But I cannot find where to add it. I cannot find my header. I’m using the WordPress Virtue theme. I have looked and looked and do not see where to add the pixel code.
The items are not syncing. The old items are not deleted when they sell and not all new items are added (on FB or IG). I sell vintage jewelry, so I only have one so it is imperative that FB and IG match my website since it is accurate.
Thank you so much for helping! And I’m sorry that I’m not good with this.
Hello,
Get more website purchases You need to have a pixel that have fired pixel event.
Sorry for asking, can you provide a screenshot about this? So that we can check how that is shown on your end. You may want to use https://snipboard.io to send screenshot links.
When Facebook for WooCommerce?extension is installed on your site, you will need to create a Business Manager account with Facebook in order to use a tracking pixel. You can check the requisites for your Facebook for WooCommerce to work here.
Hello,
What do you need a screenshot of? I sent one of the WordPress code that I’m seeing (of the only header anything I have seen). You need a screenshot of what FB and IG have that doesn’t match my website? Thank you!!
Hi @sleeneys ,
The screenshot that @ihereira is asking for, is the below error message you have mentioned seeing on your end:
Get more website purchases You need to have a pixel that have fired pixel event.
Add the Pixel Code to the
header.php file
:Dashboard > Appearance > Theme File Editor. Then, find the
header.php
file and paste the pixel code just above the closing</head>
tag.If you prefer not adding this directly to your
header.php
, you can use a plugin to add this, such as the Insert Headers and Footers, where you can then add the Pixel code.Feel free to read more about how to achieve this with a plugin, here.
Also, here is a helpful video on how to do this.
Additionally, here is a helpful guide on how to check whether the pixel has been added to your site successfully.
Hope this helps!
Thank you! I have installed it but my Mac Chrome is not compatible with/for the pixel helper, so who knows if it’s working??? At this point, this it’s more trouble than it is worth. I’m at the point where I would almost just rather not be bothered with the FB and IG store…..
Thank you so much for all of your help. I don’t know…???
Oh! The error message is at the link in my first message…. https://www.sleeneys.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-facebook
Thank you again so much!!!
