Google Remarketing v8 - Step 5

Login to Google AdWords as described HERE

Copy and paste your "Google Code for Remarketing Tag" script into the new "Script.Google.Remarketing" topic (make sure you use the "HTML" mode in the editor and not the "Design" Mode)

Google Remarketing v8 - Step 6

Go in the admin to Configuration-->Advanced-->AppConfig Parameters and search for "Remarketing"

• Make sure Google.Remarketing.Enabled is "true"
• Make sure Google.DynamicRemarketing.Enabled is "true" (if you're using dynamic remarketing)
• If using dynamic remarketing, make sure the format in "Google.DynamicRemarketing.ProductIdentifierFormat" AppConfig uses the same format that you use for your unique product identifier in Google. (If you are using DotFeed, the default "{ProductID}-{VariantID}--" should be correct for you).
