I can see the facebook pixel call from the shopify. I need to stop that one, which comes from the source code. And I notice in dev console named as trekkie, but unable to find the trekkie code in theme.liquid of shopify. Even I tried to remove the code using the below comment, still I'm facing the facebook pixel call was firing

 

{% comment %}{{ content_for_header }}{% endcomment %}
{{ content_for_header | replace:'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx', ''}}

 

Please help me on this ASAP

Why do you need to stop it?

I just found out how to stop Trekkie.

 

You just need to add this code at the very top of tour theme.liquid, just below the <head> tag:

window.trekkie = {
load: function(config) {
if (config && config['Facebook Pixel']) {
// Block Trekkie
delete config['Facebook Pixel'];
console.log("Blocked Facebook Pixel configuration for trekkie.");
}
}
};

This will allow you to stop the whole Trekkie tracking code, not just facebook as shown in the code. 

Hope to help!

Does anyone can confirm is it really working?

I just tried it and I can confirm that it works (at least for page_views being blocked, i haven't checked with facebook), but it needs to be wrapped in <script>. So, revised version:

 

<script>

window.trekkie = {
load: function(config) {
if (config && config['Facebook Pixel']) {
// Block Trekkie
delete config['Facebook Pixel'];
console.log("Blocked Facebook Pixel configuration for trekkie.");
}
}
};

</script>

I noticed that trekkie is firing a wrong consent mode: did you noticed the same?

thanks!
