Add Fathom Analytics to your Obsidian Publish site

Today I figured out how to embed the tracking code for Fathom Analytics into an Obsidian Publish website. It's easy.

1. Create a file in the root of your Obsidian Vault called publish.js – You'll need to use an editor like VS Code for this as Obsidian won't handle it.
2. Add this code to that file, replacing with your actual site code.

var fathomSnippet = document.createElement('script');fathomSnippet.defer = true;fathomSnippet.setAttribute('data-site', '');fathomSnippet.src = 'https://cdn.usefathom.com/script.js';document.head.appendChild(fathomSnippet);

1. Use Obsidian to publish the publish.js file just like any other file.

That's it!
