How do I diagnose broken WooCommerce tracking?

GA4 DebugView Meta Events Manager tracking diagnostics DevTools Network tab WooCommerce orders

Quick Answer

Start with the platform's real-time tools — GA4 DebugView, Meta Events Manager Test Events — to see whether the event reaches the destination at all. Then compare your tracked conversion count against actual WooCommerce orders for the same period. The browser DevTools Network tab catches blocked requests and tag failures.

Full Answer

Work backward from where the event should arrive. If GA4 DebugView and Meta Test Events show nothing, the request is being blocked before it leaves the browser — usually an ad blocker, a misconfigured consent gate, or a tag failing to load. If the platform sees the event but the count differs from your WooCommerce orders, that's an attribution gap, not a tracking failure. The DevTools Network tab tells you which: a 200 response means the event left the browser, a missing or blocked request means it never did. Test in incognito to isolate browser extensions.
