# Visual Event Settings

> **SUCCESS**
>
> **Overview**
>
> Ptengine Insight event settings include two types: visual settings and [manual settings (custom events)](/en/start-guide/quick/visual-event-setup.md).
>
> Visual event settings allow you to configure "events" to measure specific button clicks and other actions directly by viewing your website's screen without any programming knowledge (no-code).

## Common Use Cases

This feature is useful in various scenarios where you want to understand specific user behaviors on your site.

**Conversion measurement:** When you want to measure click counts on important buttons such as "Purchase," "Request materials," or "Contact us."

**Content evaluation:** When you want to analyze how frequently specific articles, banners, navigation menus, and other content are being clicked.

**UI/UX improvement:** When you want to collectively measure the usage of buttons that are consistently placed across multiple pages (e.g., the login button in the header) and gain insights for site improvements.

**Post-login action measurement:** When you want to measure element clicks on pages that require login, such as member pages. (Using screen operation mode)

## Visual Event Settings

Visual event settings allow you to configure events without code while directly viewing the screen. It's easy to use even without technical knowledge.

### Video Guide

### Text Version Guide

### 1. Select a Web Page

Open the event settings page.

Select the web page that contains the element for which you want to configure an event.

Enter URL directly

```
Select from "After parameter removal" or "Original page" list

Search by title/URL
```

### 2. Enter Event Settings Mode

The selected web page opens in a separate tab.

When you hover the mouse cursor over elements, a red frame appears, and you can configure events by clicking.

> **WARNING** Accordion menus and other elements that require click operations should use "screen operation mode."

### 3. Configure Measurement Target

When you click on an element, the number of clicks from the past 7 days is displayed. There are two ways to configure the measurement target:

**Selected element only:**

Identify a specific element in the HTML source

```
Recommended if an id attribute exists
```

**Custom:**

Identify elements by tag, class, href, or text

Turning on "Ignore DOM structure" applies it to the entire page

> **DANGER** If tags or attributes are changed during site modifications, the element may no longer be identifiable.

### 4. Configure Event Name and Measurement Scope

**Event name:** 20 characters or fewer (cannot be changed)

**Measurement scope:**

Applicable domain

```
Applicable page

URL rules (when targeting multiple pages)
```

### 5. Confirm Settings

Click "Confirm" to complete the settings. You can check the event list at the gear icon > Event Settings.

## How to Confirm Settings

Data collection begins approximately 3 minutes after configuration.

It takes 30 minutes to 1 hour for the data to be reflected in the event analysis dashboard.

For immediate verification, refer to "How to verify that events are firing correctly."

📌 Only events with 1 or more measurements are displayed on the event analysis screen.
