Feature Request: Track Link Location
-
I would like to track from where a user clicked a PL. I’m afraid I have two ideas for that:
1) Adding a free marker to a PL via a link anchor.
For example, my PL is:
https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink
In the WP post editor, when I set a PL, and I add an anchor to it, like…
https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink#mymarker
…the pretty link is still executed/forwarded fine, but it is recorded as the “original” PL, without the anchor, so I can’t use these anchors as markers to track something. ??2) A PL could generally become a collection of links, consisting of an unlimited number of “source links”, all going to the same target URL. For example, a PL entry with three “source links”:
–
Title: My Pretty Link
Pretty Link List:
https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink-top
https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink-bottom
https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink-popup
Target URL: https://www.targetdomain.com/foo
–I would highly prefer method 1) as it doesn’t need any configuration management. I could simply set markers freely when I link something.
Of course, PL COULD offer a cool management for that, like a button in the WP post editor where I could choose from my PL list, and directly add markers to a PL, so I can later see & choose from the PL which markers already exists.
A PL entry could be, similar to 2) look like that:
–
Title: My Pretty Link
Pretty Link: https://www.mydomain.com/myprettylink
Marker List:
top
bottom
popup
Target URL: https://www.targetdomain.com/foo
–
And in the WP post editor I could choose from my PL list, with submenus for the markers a PL may have. And a submenu entry “Add marker”.
But that is a different feature request. ?? I would be very happy if 1) would work, just recording the link anchor.
