Your Sleekplan standalone board is a public-facing product hub where customers visit to submit feedback, follow your roadmap, and stay updated on your changelog. Adding an analytics tracker to these pages gives you valuable insight into how users interact with your content,from which roadmap items attract the most views, to how long visitors spend reading your changelog entries. Tools like Google Analytics let you measure traffic sources, track user journeys, and make more informed product decisions based on real engagement data
How to Add an Analytics Script to Your Standalone Board
Most analytics platforms provide a snippet of code that needs to be added to your website's <head> tag and sometimes a separate block of JavaScript logic. Sleekplan's Website Settings accommodate both parts through two dedicated fields: Custom HTML and Custom Javascript.
Step 1 — Navigate to Website Settings
In your Sleekplan Admin Dashboard, go to Settings → Website → Website Settings
Step 2 — Add the Script Source to the Custom HTML section
Locate the Custom HTML field. This is where you'll place any <script> tag that references an external source ,that is, the part of your analytics snippet that loads the tracker library.
For the Google Analytics example, this looks like:
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXXXXX"></script>
👇Paste this tag into the Custom HTML field. It will be injected into the <head> section of your standalone board pages.
Step 3 — Add the Configuration Code to Custom Javascript
Locate the Custom Javascript field. This is where the inline JavaScript logic goe but without the surrounding <script> tags.
For the Google Analytics example, the remaining part of the snippet looks like this when pasted correctly:
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXXXXX');
ℹ️ Note that the opening <script> and closing </script> tags are omitted here. Sleekplan handles the script wrapper automatically, so including them would cause errors.
✍️A Note on Other Scripts
This same approach applies to any script you add to your standalone board, not just Google Analytics. If a third-party tool (such as Intercom) provides a snippet that is split into two parts (an external source reference and a block of inline code), follow the same pattern: the <script src="..."> tag goes in Custom HTML, and the JavaScript logic goes in Custom Javascript ,again, without the <script> tags.
