I’m not sure if this is a bug or a feature but i’d like to be able to track page entries without the ?query string variables . Just “twitter” “facebook” etc is good enough I’d rather see the URL count as the entry page than this long string of one page things
This is a feature (as sometime the HTTP params are part of page discrimination)
On Matomo side
In the measurable / site configuration, there is this setting that you can use to exclude some parameters:
Also in the Measurable global settings:
and
(not sure if it will exclude the tracking of the selected HTTP params…)
During tracking
Another solution would be to change the page URL during tracking:
Standard JavaScript
https://developer.matomo.org/api-reference/tracking-javascript#configuration-of-the-tracker-object
See: setCustomUrl( string )
- Override the page’s reported URL
MTM
(Note:
{{pageUrl}}
is one of my own custom variable)
