Add DataFast to your Ghost CMS site

Follow these steps to integrate DataFast analytics into your Ghost CMS site.

Add tracking script using Code Injection

Ghost provides a built-in Code Injection feature that makes it easy to add scripts to your site.

1. Log in to your Ghost admin dashboard

2. Go to Settings > Code Injection

3. In the Site Header section, paste your DataFast tracking script:

   <script
     defer
     data-website-id="YOUR_WEBSITE_ID"
     data-domain="YOUR_DOMAIN.COM"
     src="https://datafa.st/js/script.js"
   ></script>
   

   Replace YOUR_WEBSITE_ID with your actual Website ID from DataFast. Replace YOUR_DOMAIN.COM with your website's root domain.

4. Click Save

Alternative: Using a custom theme

If you're using a custom theme, you can add the script directly to your theme's default.hbs file:

1. Go to Design > Theme Editor
2. Open default.hbs
3. Add the script just before the closing </head> tag
4. Save your changes

Verify installation

After implementing either method:

• Visit your live website
• Check your DataFast dashboard for incoming data
• It might take a few minutes for the first pageviews to appear
