If you need to collect other data and pass to PayPal then you should probably look at the PayPal Add-on from GravityForms https://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/paypal/ as it sounds like it suites your needs. This plugin is specific to capturing Google UTM codes for marketing purposes.

Not exactly, this plugin captures the UTM / campaign data of a visitor. So yes for paid, no for organic/direct.

The plugin handles this out of the box. It sets the value in a cookie that is then used to populate the form fields if the query string parameters are not present.

That is outside the scope of this plugin, unless you consider not having a tracking value set as organic traffic

I’ll get this fix added. They should always be display none on the public side.

Thanks!

I have never considered using the tracking data to customize the user experience so the fields are not exposed for conditional logic. I can look into adding this, but it is not something that I can do anytime soon.

The GA Campaign field contains multiple values. If you are wanting just the “Campaign” value you would have to do something like {GA Campaign (Campaign):22.3}

Brad,

The landing page can be set using a standard hidden filed in gravity forms with the default value set to the LP URL.

As for the other values, I could add them but my question isn’t that data all available by matching the GCLID back to Adwords? If I am missing something, let me know and I’ll look at adding another field with these elements.

This is a new one for me. The plugin is configured to prevent you from adding the field more than one time, but you should be able to delete them. What version do you have installed? What version of Gravity Forms are you using? I want to try and duplicate.

Marty,

Sorry for the delay getting back to you. Did you set the custom query string parameters in the admin? Are you sure your destination URL in Adwords is set to include the campaign info and not set to “auto” which is what generates the GCLID?

Let me know and I’ll try and help resolve this issue.
Chris

Here you go.

PHP Sessions – yes, the plugin uses cookies to track campaign information
Direct Database Query – No
Filesystem – No (unless you have debugging enabled in Gravity Forms, and then it logs errors in a text file)
query_posts() function – No
cached_queries – No

It sounds like you are looking for referrer information, which the plugin does not currently support. However, this is something that I can add, so look for an update in a week or so.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.

You need to include the UTM variable in the URL which will send the data to Google Analytics. The plugin takes the UTM information and adds the information to hidden form fields so that the data can also be stored in a CRM / 3rd party system.

Josh,

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I have just pushed several changes up that should resolve most of the issues. One thing that I wanted to point out is that the Campaign fields are set via query string parameters so clicking on your organic link will not populate the fields. However, if you use the GA URL builder or are using ADWords then the data should populate. Let me know if you have any other issues or if I can help you with the setup.
