Rant: Took me 8 hours to figure out why my Facebook ads weren't converting

I spent all of last Wednesday troubleshooting a campaign that was getting tons of clicks but zero sales. Turned out my pixel was firing twice on the checkout page and messing up the tracking data. Support couldn't help either. Has anyone else run into a setup bug that ate up a whole day like that?

Honestly I gotta push back on that. Pixel issues can be super sneaky and the double firing thing isn't always obvious. I've seen people chase phantom problems for days only to find it was something tiny like that. Sometimes the "simple" stuff is the hardest to catch when you're staring at code and data all day.

8 hours on a pixel issue sounds like overthinking a simple problem.
