Tracking Code

masionas
Hi Guys,

1) Is there any built-in way to get tracking code auto appended to urls while visitor is browsing different sections of the site? Let us assume visitor has landed to home page of ecommerce by url like http://site.com:8080/ecommerce/control/main?atc=track01 and it is logged like a visit in ofbiz admin. But once visitor goes to the other link, tracking code is no longer there and those further page clicks are not tracked.

2) Basically, what I am trying to achieve is a way to track visitor during the whole session working with website ( from the first landing until order completion) and even beyond that ( like storing this tracking code in cookies instead of URLs) for returning visitors. So, the next day or week, when visitor opens the site again he is recognized by his tracking code and when he creates order this time, then order is tracked by that number he landed with, a week or day ago. And moreover, he is recognized by that tracking code all the way down unless he opens the url with the different value of "atc" param ("atc=track02"). Then an old tracking code gets overriden with the new one.



Any hints here if ofbiz has something already done in this regard? Thanks in advance.
