Description

On the forum often questions are asked by people who only know very basic JS, but want to track events (e.g. button clicks)
e.g. https://forum.matomo.org/t/ich-kann-einfach-keinen-button-richtig-tracken/29619
Of course Tag Manager is a solution, but I think a few really basic guides could also help
