Mouseflow tracking install steps
Open the metadata for the page in squiz. (If it is a site asset, go to the sites “home” page instead)
If the metadata field “External JS - Footer (externalJsFooter #1515678)“ exists, add the asset “mouseflow script current#1913605”. (This is for when Victoria Hub #1321146 metadata schema is in use)
If enabling on a home page you must add this to both the site asset and the home page to work, due to a bug in squiz.
Otherwise, if the metadata field “afterScripts (afterScripts #385570)” exists, add the following code in the textbox: (This is for when Common Migration #379620 metadata schema is in use)
Note, this doesn’t have to be enabled on both homesite and site assets to work.

How to tell if mouseflow is installed
View the page source, do a search for “mouseflow”, and you should find some variation of the following code:
<!-- Mouseflow Current 1913605 -->
<script type="text/javascript">
const mouseflowAssetId = "%asset_name% %asset_assetid%"; //Used for debugging on the front end
var _mfq = _mfq || [];
(function() {
var mf = document.createElement("script"); mf.type = "text/javascript"; mf.async = true;
mf.src = "//cdn.mouseflow.com/projects/4a7ff1cf-f5b8-4dd8-95da-13bfe4f4e580.js";
document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(mf);
})();
</script>Our Mouseflow plan
Currently, we are using the Pro Plan, which has 150k recorded sessions (credits), 20 websites, 12 months of storage and unlimited heat maps.
Recordings are counted in credits, which equals one user session (recording).
Session
A session is created when a new user accesses your site, or when the Mouseflow session ends and the user performs a new action on your site. A Mouseflow session ends if one of the following scenarios occur:
The user is inactive for more than 30 min.
The user is active on a page for more than 1 hour.
The user has more than 100 page views.
The user clears browser cookies
The user loads the website in an incognito tab.
If you perform a 'mouseflow.stopSession()' call at any time on your site.
According to the last 12 month credits used, the most credits we used in a year were around 70k, so we still have room to expand the mouseflow tracking on our site.
