Method to Add Google Tag Manager (GTM) to Magento 2 Store
In Magento 2, you can easily add the Google Tag Manager without any need for a third-party extension.
To add Google Tag Manager to your Magento 2 store, all you need to do is add your unique Google Tag Manager code to your theme.
The Google Tag Manager code is divided into two parts – Script & NoScript.
You need to put these code snippets into two separate phtml template head and body files as shown below.
// YourTheme/Magento_Theme/templates/html/gtm_head.phtml <script>..</script> <!-- GTM code --> // YourTheme/Magento_Theme/templates/html/gtm_body.phtml <noscript>..</noscript> <!-- GTM code --> Now, we also need to load these files correspondingly through the default default.xml file. <!-- YourTheme/Magento_Theme/layout/default.xml --> <referenceContainer name="head.additional"> <block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="gtm.head" before="-" template="Magento_Theme::html/gtm_head.phtml" /> </referenceContainer> <referenceContainer name="after.body.start"> <block class="Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template" name="gtm.body" before="-" template="Magento_Theme::html/gtm_body.phtml" /> </referenceContainer>
