Hello Chris,

You changed to the status of this topic to ‘Resolved’, but can you reopen it?

We still can’t track clicks on links that point to a different subdomain under the same main domain.

Here’s the case:

We run WordPress and your plugin on https://blog.brandfield.nl/

We run a shop at https://www.brandfield.nl/

We create nice blog posts that contain links to the our shop. Check out this post for example: https://blog.brandfield.nl/what-to-wear-festival-edit/

There are about 20 links in this article pointing to a URL on https://www.brandfield.nl/ but clicks on them are NOT TRACKED as events.

Here’s how I set up the plugin:

• Track outbound clicks and download links? -> Set to ‘Using JavaScript’
• Turn on allowLinker -> Checked
• Enable enhanced link attribution, Anchor tracking, Allow anchor -> Unchecked
• Domain to track as -> Set to ‘brandfield.nl’

I have tried different combinations of settings. Like unchecking ‘Turn on allowLinker’ and leaving ‘Domain to track as’ empty and tried all combinations. With no success.

Why is it not working? All links are being tracked as events, except the ones pointing https://www.brandfield.nl/

Hope you can help me out!

Thank you

-Rick

Thank you very much, Chris!

I have changed the settings and I am waiting for the first results to get reported in GA.

We use seperate UA codes because we don’t want blog traffic and webshop traffic mixed up in the same GA profile.

Hi Chris,

Any updates on this?

Let me know.

Cheers

Hi Chris,
Any updates on this?

Hi Chris,
We use seperate UA codes for subdomains.

Yes, the redirect causes trouble.

Using deeplinks that don’t redirect will work on any device I think.

Hello Frank,

Yes, that works for me!

Thank you very much. Nice solution by the way.

Cheers,
Rick

Same here!

Are your websites on https protocol or http?

Niels,

That was a mistake, I’m sorry!

I was logged in when I commented for testing and that’s why the emails were sent to our main email address. Used the wrong email address to comment… ??

Works fine! Thank you for updating the plugin.

Hello Niels,

It’s not working as it should be working. I installed the new version of Comment Approved and configured ‘sender from name’ and ‘sender email’.

As a result whenever a comment is being approved, the emails are being sent to the configured ‘sender email’ instead of the commenter email address.

Also my previous posted solution, adding filters to the functions.php, is not working as I hoped. For example I use Contact Form 7 for email contact forms. Every message sent by a CF7 form gets delivered with the name and email set in functions.php, instead of the sender name and email.

Any more options to try?

Rick

Hello Niels,

Thank you very much. I didn’t know that ??

I tried this and it works fine. Added these two rules to my set of theme functions:

add_filter( 'wp_mail_from_name', function( $name ) {
	return 'Sender name';
});
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', function( $email ) {
	return '[email protected]';
});

Frank,

I just got notified of the update, installed it and now it all works fine again.

I’ll take this opportunity to suggest a nice plugin improvement as well.

Maybe you should consider to extend the CDN configuration options. Right now Autoptimize only offers one CDN url. Also this option is only taking effect if you choose to optimize CSS and/or JS.

For example: I only use the CSS combining and optimization. Autoptimize pushes it to a CDN url for me which is really nice. But I also want JS files to be loaded via a CDN url and even a different subdomain.

Maybe you can build three options:
– CDN URL for images
– CDN URL for CSS
– CDN URL for Javascript

Also offer the ability to rewrite the URL’s, even if a user chooses not to combine and/or minify CSS and/or JS. It would also be nice to use only specific options of the tree.

Right now I have to use another plugin to get my unoptimized Javascript loaded through CDN which is a shame, because you already have such a great plugin.

I think a these options are easy to build in. If you choose to do so I also think a whole new group of users start using Autoptimize, since there’s no good plugin that offers both minifying, combining and CDN URL’s.

User can choose W3 Total Cache but that’s a total different plugin.

Best regards, Rick

Hello Frank,

I just did what you asked and I confirm it’s working again like it should. Thank you so much!

Can I keep using this version and wait for the next release in which this will be solved?

By the way: it also solved another bug. 1.9.3 did not like the other plugin to rewrite the CSS url’s. As a result they were not combined properly. Some CSS files were not being included in the combined file. After your fix they are combined properly!

Thanks again!

Rick

Please solve this.
