Hi bb1webs
Your answer to the || (Pipe) issue in our URLs:
%7c is the HEX value of a PIPE. “|”
%40 for instance is the HEX value of the @ sign.
In order for data to keep it’s value as it moves across the internet it converts the PIPE into %7c so that all platforms (per se) understand that they are now dealing with a PIPE and therefore not get confused.
To conclude:
A PIPE and %7c are exactly the same thing. No tracking is affected AT ALL as there is nothing wrong with the URL.
For instance and for example:
Type | into Google. Look at the URL string in the Address bar. It now ends with your %7c.
The previous post explains the tracking very well. The comments I would like to make is the affiliate tracking overrides all references to LSS=JPCTYPEINTRAFFIC in our back end. In other words we get both strings and the affiliate tracking overrides TYPEINTRAFFIC.
Getting to the question about the players and who they belong to, can you please send me the account numbers to give you more detail.
Thanks
Wayne
