Hi,
I am totally newbie on opencart, code and anything related to it.
But I would like to include Facebook Ads Conversion tracking on a page of my OC.
I actually don´t even know where to find a specific page on the files (FTP), I use FileZIlla.
There is also the verified Google+ code that I should include.
"Copy and paste the code snippet provided to the <head> tag of your website"
Where should I find the <head>??
Any help will be welcomed.
Thanks all

Seems like I found where to include them. However, my "common" folder has 3 "header" files. Any idea of why? See Img attached please.

If so, which one should I paste the code??
Thanks

if you want to make things easy, you can do so by pasting into system > settings > edit store > server tab, look for analytics. You can paste into it

keeping things simple for non programmers, and to prevent it from being lost in a theme upgrade / system upgrade, use the system > settings area

Thanks guys.
I already have the google analitics code in there. Can I just add other codes?
The google+ would make sense but regarding Facebook/Adwords convertion tracking, should them be added there too. Shouldn´t it be added on a checkout page or thanks for register page, for instance?
Many thanks

it depends where you need to place it. If you need to place it at the checkout or registration page, you will need to modify register.tpl, checkout.tpl
