Advanced > Parameter Forwarding

Hi Julie,

Thank you for reaching out. Currently, the Parameter Forwarding option needs to be enabled on a per-link basis but if you had some custom code to default that “Parameter Forwarding” option to enabled for newly-created links located somewhere like your theme’s functions.php then the code might’ve been lost if you recently updated your theme.

Could you try installing a plugin such as Code Snippets and then place the code snippet attached within that plugin? This should allow the code to stick around when your theme updates. With the code added, any newly-created links will have the Parameter Forwarding option set to enabled: https://gist.github.com/DumahX/f1b589a850a1f2d2d5d36ff4e97b5f67

I hope this helps!

Kind regards,

Thanks Tyler for the quick reply – I am positive this worked automatically in the past. I went back to look at my old links, because it stopped working for me.

Are you saying nothing was changed in the Pretty Links side? (So it’s specific to me and my installation? I never had any unique code installed.)

Is this something that’s available in the PRO version? (Yes, I will pay for it!)

I really appreciate the help!

Hi Julie,

Thank you for getting back to me. I got with one of our senior developers who’s been working with Pretty Links for several years, but they weren’t aware of any global option for Parameter Forwarding. The option can currently only be enabled on a per-link basis for our Free and Pro versions, but that code snippet I provided should default the option to “Enabled” when you create a new link.

I hope this helps!

Kind regards,
