SilverStripe Facebook Serverside pixel

Add serverside fb pixel tracking to your silverstripe site, or silvershop products (if installed).

Install

composer require xddesigners/silverstripe-facebook-serverside-pixel

Get your pixel id and access token and set these in your environment (.env) file.

FB_ACCESS_TOKEN="FB_ACCESS_TOKEN"
FB_PIXEL_ID="FB_PIXEL_ID"
FB_TEST_EVENT_CODE="OPTIONAL"

Configuration

By default the pageview event is added to the SiteTree class. If you have a SilverShop you'll also want to enable the extensions on Order and CheckoutPage:

SilverShop\Model\Order:
  extensions:
    - XD\SilverStripeFacebookServerSidePixel\Extensions\OrderExtension
SilverShop\Page\CheckoutPage:
  extensions:
    - XD\SilverStripeFacebookServerSidePixel\Extensions\CheckoutPageExtension

Add custom events

You can push custom events by using the following methods:

// Initiate the Client
$client = new XD\SilverStripeFacebookServerSidePixel\Client\Client();

// Generate user date from the current session. 
$userData = $client->createUserData();

// Enricht the user data (Optional)
$userData->setEmail('user@email.com');

// Create the custom data to send to your event, for example a cart (Optional)
$product = (new Content())
    ->setProductId('my_product_id')
    ->setTitle('product_title')
    ->setQuantity(2)
    ->setItemPrice(57.25)
    ->setDeliveryCategory(DeliveryCategory::HOME_DELIVERY);
            
$customData = (new CustomData())
    ->setOrderId('my_order_id')
    ->setContents([$product])
    ->setCurrency('eur')
    ->setContentType('product')
    ->setValue(114.50);

// add the event (multiple events can be chained) and send the events
$client
    ->addEvent('MyCustomEvent', $userData, $customData)
    ->sendEvents();

Support for FB Event IDs

add to index.php:

session_start();
$event_id = sha1(session_id() . '_' . uniqid() );
setcookie('EVENTID',$event_id);
$_SESSION['EVENTID'] = $event_id;
