Runar Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) This is the support topic for the plugin Remove Link Tracking. Edited January 3, 2022 by Runar SeNioR- 1 Link to comment
Gabriel Torres Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 (edited) @Runar Does it cover Amazon.com affiliate links? Because one problem we have here is users "recommending" products, but the links actually have afilliate tracking info. Edited January 3, 2022 by Gabriel Torres SeNioR- 1 Link to comment

I’m finding several tags related to Amazon, but I’m not sure which applies to affiliate links. Would you be able to show me an example of the affiliate links used by your members? Edit: I’ve identified two Amazon’s affiliate parameters (ascsubtag and tag) and will add them to the next release. An example from your forum would still be helpful, though.

Gabriel Torres Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 @Runar I will provide you with several examples from Amazon and other online stores that are popular here in our forums. I will get back to you with those. I just need to find real examples here... hehehe Link to comment
Gabriel Torres Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 @Runar See below several examples of what could be cleaned out. Amazon https://www.amazon.com.br/Placa-Vídeo-AFOX-Radeon-RX560D/dp/B099X6JXVS/ref=asc_df_B099X6JXVS/?tag=googleshopp00-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=379726213405&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=2077078744594458364&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9101337&hvtargid=pla-1395670392199&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com.br/Cooler-Gamer-Intel-LGA1156-Deepcool/dp/B00X9LBO6Q/ref=pd_sbs_2/141-4175838-4920651?pd_rd_w=lDoas&pf_rd_p=fd372a8b-e6ae-4397-bd2a-6918070dc11e&pf_rd_r=PS7R5TZY09KW1MRS05EH&pd_rd_r=0c4ee111-ec81-45de-bac5-348c313c96ae&pd_rd_wg=MoG8I&pd_rd_i=B00X9LBO6Q&psc=1 These two examples are from amazon.com.br, but amazon.com, amazon.co.uk etc use the same format. Everything after the ASIN code can be removed. The stripped-down version of the same links would be: https://www.amazon.com.br/Placa-Vídeo-AFOX-Radeon-RX560D/dp/B099X6JXVS/ https://www.amazon.com.br/Cooler-Gamer-Intel-LGA1156-Deepcool/dp/B00X9LBO6Q/ Aliexpress https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005003127978969.html?spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.39dcb90a8ouyUv https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005002307427655.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.271e38b0Dwvegf&algo_pvid=83fd4b4b-0dad-40e2-9bd6-7e174d90e786&algo_exp_id=83fd4b4b-0dad-40e2-9bd6-7e174d90e786-1&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000020010865917"}&pdp_pi=-1%3B600.06%3B-1%3B-1%40salePrice%3BBRL%3Bsearch-mainSearch The first example was stripped-down correctly by the plugin, but not the second one. Everything after the .html can be removed. Also note that here the example if for the Portuguese version of Aliexpress, but it applies to any version of this website.

I ask because the “&” part is a bit tricky. If the URLs above are posted in your forum exactly like they are here, then I need to do some extra magic behind the scenes to make the plugin read them correctly. Link to comment
Gabriel Torres Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 @Runar I copied these directly from the database. I don't know whether they were posted like this or it was IPS that converted & into & before saving. Link to comment

Gabriel Torres Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 @Runar Your plugin is causing an issue here. You must remove it from the marketplace. Link to comment
Runar Posted January 5, 2022 Author Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) Thank you for the report! I’ve identified the issue and a new version containing a fix will be submitted shortly. I apologize for the inconvenience and hope you haven’t lost faith in the plugin. Edit: I’ve set the price to $1,000 to prevent anyone from installing it until the fix is released.

Runar Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 An update with new tracking parameters and a fix for the issue mentioned above, is now submitted and awaiting release. Link to comment
Runar Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 What’s new in version 1.1.0: Version 1.1.0 is now available on the Marketplace. This version contains new tracking parameters and fixes a bug reported earlier in this topic. Another new feature is that tracking parameters in other parts of the URL, such as somewhere in the path or in fragments (that’s the text after the #), will also be removed. New features Tracking parameters in the URL path and fragments (after the #) will now be removed. Improvements Added new tracking parameters. Fixes Fixed issue with links not made up of text, such as images or other attachments, being wrongfully processed. Link to comment
Edjazoli Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hi, one of my member post this link and its looks like the adds tracking etc stayed? I reproduce the link as so thought that maybe plugging got kind of group restriction… please check the img Link to comment
