HI there,

I would like to know how could I include Google Analytics into button shortcodes, the latter being <a href="PLACE_LINK_HERE" class="button small black">Small</a>

Best regards,

Maybe this ? (assuming I have the new Google Analytics code loaded in my site’s header)
```
<a href="PLACE_LINK_HERE" onClick="ga('send', 'event', 'category', 'action', 'label', numerical value);" class="button small black">Small</a>
```

I honestly wouldn’t know the proper way to this….I usually just add the code in the Genesis Theme Settings in the “head” area.

Anyone else know the best way to handle this?

Just to clarify, my intention is to track button clicks, that’s why the issue was involving button shortcodes…
