Facebook Duplicate Pixel ID

Hi,

i encounterd a problem when adding a Facebook Pixel tag. Without any modification and a mapped Pixel ID the following warning is generated "[Facebook Pixel] - Duplicate Pixel ID: XXXXXXXXX"

Taking a look into the the tag template the line fbq("init", ... is called twice. 
Once in the else clause of the u.initialized if-statement line 442 and once within the loader_cb function in line 324.

Greetings
Tobias

Hello @MountainMaster 

Thanks for pointing this out - this has been highlighted, and should be fixed in a future release for the tag.

Be assured that the warning in the console should have no impact, and should not cause any problems with your tracking / cause no duplicate events. When initialising twice, The FB pixel recognises this and sends out the warning.

Hi All,.

I am getting SubscribedButtonClick on randon click of some of the elements on the page. I have removed "link:1" from u.ev still it is firing an event, the mentioned event also fires on click of dev, QA, Prod button of tealium tools.

FYI : Requirement is to track pageviews only

Hello,

I am having the same issue here the Facebook Pixel is triggering a random "SubscribedButtonClick" event when I make click on the CHECKOUT button. My guess is that this is in somehow preventing the iniciateCheckout event to initiate correctly on the CHECKOUT button click.

It would be nice if we can turn off these auto events.

Thanks
