Why isn't my TikTok pixel tracking my store correctly?

Topic summary

  • Initial issue: After installing the TikTok Pixel via the Shopify app, the newest pixel didn’t fire on the testing page or appear in the TikTok Pixel Helper, while TikTok’s overview still showed activity. Store is using the Shrine theme; cause unknown. A screenshot was referenced.

  • Regional angle raised: Another participant asked whether the merchant was based in Europe.

  • Update: Original poster later reported it “magically” started working without any identified fix.

  • New report: A different user has the same problem. Installed through TikTok’s official app, but the pixel doesn’t show. They are based in Asia while working on a German TikTok account; switching a VPN to Germany and reconnecting didn’t help. They requested assistance.

  • Status: No confirmed solution or actionable steps shared. Regional setup/location was questioned but remains unverified as a cause. Partially resolved for the original poster, unresolved for the new case; discussion remains open.

i use the tiktok pixel app on shopify. ive connected everything and checked everything. My first pixels worked completely fine, but with my latest one, it doesnt track anything on the testing page so i havent run any ads yet to see if it works. but in the overview on tiktok it does show that its tracking (image below). With the pixel helper, the pixel also doesnt show. Im using the shrine theme i dont know if thats the reason that its not working.
