You can tell Crazy Egg to ignore certain elements with the CSS class -ce-ignore. Simply assign this class to an element and our script will not track clicks on it or its contents:
<p class="-ce-ignore"> Neither <em>this</em> paragraph, nor its <a href="a">child</a> <a href="b">elements</a>, will be <a href="c">tracked</a>. </p>
If your element already has a class attribute, you can just add -ce-ignore as an additional CSS class:
<div class="sidebar -ce-ignore"> ... </div>
You can also mark elements as ignored via Javascript:
(window.CE_API || (window.CE_API = [])).push(function(){
var el = document.getElementById('ignore-me');
CE2.ignore(el);
});
Caution: There is a risk of creating duplicate click data when you are implementing your own tracking behavior. Two clicks could be tracked for each real click from a visitor: one by your custom code and another by the default Crazy Egg click handler.
