IntelliSuggest Tracking: BigCommerce Blueprint

This article provides instructions for the installation of SearchSpring IntelliSuggest Tracking onto BigCommerce stores using a Blueprint Theme.

If your store is using a Stencil Theme, see our article for IntelliSuggest Tracking on BigCommerce Stencil.

---

IMPORTANT: For this tracking to work, "Show Product's SKU" must first be enabled within the BigCommerce Product Display Settings.

Be sure to replace the YOUR_SITE_ID placeholders with your SearchSpring Site ID.

Within your BigCommerce Admin panel, go to Storefront Design > My Themes. Under the Advanced Options, click Edit HTML/CSS.

Once within the Design Mode editor, complete the following edits:

1) Add the following to the end of Panels/ProductDetails.html:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var product_code = "%%GLOBAL_SKU%%";
</script>

2) Add the following to the end of Layouts/product.html:

<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdn.searchspring.net/intellisuggest/is.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
try{
    IntelliSuggest.init({siteId:'YOUR_SITE_ID', context:'Product/' + product_code, seed:product_code});
    IntelliSuggest.viewItem({sku:product_code});
} catch(err) {}
</script>

Once those two templates are saved with the additions, this tracking code will enable IntelliSuggest Tracking for Product pages.

Due to certain platform restrictions, IntelliSuggest Tracking for both Cart and Checkout pages is not possible at this time within BigCommerce Blueprint Themes.

Product Page: Can track both ID+SKU
Cart: Can track ID only
Checkout: Can track SKU only
