+Thanks to [@mbjones](https://social.lol/@mbjones) helpful post on [sending Bear upvotes to Umami](https://wand3r.net/creating-an-upvote-button-in-umami/), I was able to fumble through implementing the same behavior on my site with [Cabin](https://withcabin.com/)'s [event tracking](https://docs.withcabin.com/events.html).
+
+Brandon's approach was to use this script added to the site's footer directives to add an event attribute to the upvote button:
+
+```
+<script>
+ window.onload = function() {
+ // Get the button element by its class name
+ var button = document.getElementsByClassName('upvote-button')[0];
+
+ // Set a new attribute, for example, 'disabled'
+ button.setAttribute('data-umami-event', " {{ post_title }}");
+ };
+script>
+```
+
+
That *did* successfully set the attribute on my site, but clicks weren't showing up in the Cabin dashboard for some reason. So I switched tactics and opted to use the `cabin.event()` function instead:
+
+```
+<script>
+ window.onload = function() {
+ var button = document.querySelector('.upvote-button');
+ if (button) {
+ button.addEventListener('click', function(event) {
+ cabin.event("upvote {{ post_title }}");
+ });
+ }
+ };
+script>
+```
+
+
And that did the trick!
+
+
+
+Neat! Now that I have this knowledge I should be able to set up something similar on my other sites as well.
+
+Big thanks to Brandon for getting me pointed in the right direction!
