Help - Destination URL auto-tagging

[digitalfilm]

Google ad words auto tags urls with a tracking id (for example http://group8020.com/blog/pages/aboutus ... PwodnTuzJw)

My problem is that this causes Serendipity to redirect to the home page rather than the intended landing page (which should be http://group8020.com/blog/pages/aboutus.html -- note the missing tag "?gclid=CMKpxZCpgYsCFR0CPwodnTuzJw ")

Is is it possible to configure so that these tags do not cause a problem or redirect?

Hi!

I'm afraid that's not possible, because it would disturb the URL handling fallback. In s9y, all calls to something like

/blog/pages/aboutus.html

are equal to

/blog/index.php?/pages/aboutus.html

So if the plugin would strip everything after "?" then this fallback mechanism would no longer work.

Maybe you can get google analytics to track your pages with the fallback mechanism, so that it calls

/blog/index.php?/pages/aboutus.html&gclid=CMKpxZCpgYsCFR0CPwodnTuzJw

or

/blog/index.php?serendipity[subpage]aboutus&gclid=CMKpxZCpgYsCFR0CPwodnTuzJw

?

Best regards,
