I Can't Sign In

SymptomFix
Magic link never arrivesCheck your spam/junk folder. Try again. Links expire after 15 minutes.
Magic link says "expired"Request a new one. They're only valid for 15 minutes.
Google sign-in failsMake sure you're using the same Google account email you signed up with.
"No account found"If you signed up with a magic link and then try Google (or vice versa), use the same email address for both methods to access the same account.

My Domain Is Stuck on "Pending Verification"

Your CNAME record isn't resolving yet. See DNS Problems for a detailed walkthrough.

Quick checks:

  • Did you add a CNAME record (not an A record or TXT)?
  • Is the name cleanclicks (not the full cleanclicks.yourdomain.com unless your provider requires it)?
  • If using Cloudflare, is the record set to DNS Only (gray cloud)?
  • Have you waited at least 5 minutes for propagation?

The Tag Isn't Detected

CleanClicks can't find the script on your website. See Tag Not Detected.

Quick checks:

  • Is your domain Active (DNS verified)?
  • Is the script tag in your page's <head> section?
  • Does the script URL match cleanclicks.yourdomain.com (your actual domain)?
  • Can you see cc.js loading in browser DevTools > Network tab?

Conversions Aren't Appearing

Events fire but nothing shows up in your ad platforms. See Conversions Not Appearing.

Quick checks:

  • Is at least one trigger configured in Configuration > Triggers?
  • Is at least one platform connected and enabled?
  • Are platform credentials valid (check Connections page)?
  • Have you waited 15-30 minutes? Ad platforms aren't instant.

The Dashboard Shows No Data

If your dashboard is empty after setup:

  1. Verify your domain is Active
  2. Verify the tag is loading (check browser DevTools)
  3. Visit your own website and trigger a test event
  4. Wait a few minutes and refresh the dashboard
  5. If still empty, check that you have at least one trigger configured

Traffic Analytics Shows Nothing

  • Traffic Analytics is only available on Signal+ plans
  • Data starts accumulating after the tag is installed and traffic flows through
  • Allow at least 24 hours of traffic for meaningful analytics data
  • If you just enabled the tag today, check back tomorrow
