No events are showing up. What now?

Open DevTools Console and Network. Filter for script.js and /api/event. If they are blocked:csp, your Content Security Policy is blocking admaxxer.com — see /documentation/troubleshoot/csp. Also double-check that data-website-id matches the ID shown in your dashboard.

Events show up in staging but not production.

Confirm data-domain matches the production hostname exactly (no protocol, no trailing slash). Also confirm the website's Allowed Domains list in settings includes the prod domain.

My site is a single-page app — am I missing pageviews?

Use script.hash.js if you rely on location.hash routing. Otherwise the default script.js already hooks history.pushState/replaceState and tracks SPA navigations.

Install Admaxxer on Gatsby

npm i admaxxer, call in gatsby-browser.js.

Gatsby exposes browser-only lifecycle hooks in gatsby-browser.js. The onClientEntry hook is the right place to initialize the pixel.

Steps

1 Install the package

Add admaxxer to your project.

bash
```
npm i admaxxer
```

2 Initialize in gatsby-browser.js

Add (or create) gatsby-browser.js at the project root and export an onClientEntry hook.

gatsby-browser.js js

import { initAdmaxxer } from 'admaxxer';

export const onClientEntry = () => {
  initAdmaxxer({ websiteId: 'YOUR_WEBSITE_ID', domain: 'yourdomain.com' });
};

3 Verify the install

Load any public page on your site in a fresh browser tab. Within a few seconds, the Admaxxer dashboard realtime view should show the event. If nothing lands after 2 minutes, re-check the snippet is actually in the rendered HTML <head> (View Source, not just DevTools).

Verify installation

Load any page on your domain in a normal browser tab.
In the Admaxxer dashboard, open Pixel → Realtime — a pageview should appear within ~5 seconds.
Or hit GET /api/pixel/healthcheck?website_id=YOUR_WEBSITE_ID — lastEventAt should be non-null.
