Thanks to @mbjones[1] helpful post on sending Bear upvotes to Umami[2], I was able to fumble through implementing the same behavior on my site with Cabin[3]'s event tracking[4].

=> https://withcabin.com/ 3: Cabin
=> https://docs.withcabin.com/events.html 4: event tracking
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!
