User tracking mod

[Phil S]

I'm going to guess that I was using a VERY old version that I did not update when I moved to version 1.3.9 5 years ago This addon was one of the first things I re-installed when I upgraded to 1.5. It was preceded only by the UPS and USPS addons.

The ability to be able to see which forum is delivering traffic to my store is more important to me than seeing where they go once there. I can get around that by adding the src=wxyz.com when I post a link but I really appreciated the ability to see traffic generated when someone else does too. It was also a nice heads-up when I'd find traffic coming from discussions in sites I had never visited. That was usually followed up by an explanation if someone posted a problem or a sale if someone praised a product or service.

Hopefully this will be bumped up the priority list. I'm not adverse to offering a shameless bribe donation for it's rapid implementation. (grin)

I will say this, priorities do get set as a result of needing to meet a commitment.

I will say that I have the plugin installed on a ZC 1.5.3 system and it has for the most part provided the source of the visitor, but at the same time have seen cases where it appears that the visitor started at the site (could it be that the link is copied and pasted into the browser instead of clicked on? Maybe) but it could also be the various settings of the two hosts (site with the link and the site visited). Regardless I know the collection code is more than likely outdated. Like most plugins, I had a need to use this and saw some ways that the data presentation could be improved and at the time I had little knowledge of the ZC workings, but was willing to set out to try to make it better/keep it alive. :) I *do* want it to get updated... ;)

"Shameless bribe" above was supposed to have a strike-through as opposed to being underlined. That completely changes the tone of my message. Whoops!

I have to wonder if it's something different between 1.5.3 and 1.5.4 as I'm only seeing a referrer when traffic comes from Google or another search site.
