Cookie Tracking
   

When tracking Ad Campaigns using persistent cookies or to specify session cookies, first select the dataset you want to modify. Click on the property icon for the selected dataset and then click the Cookie Tracking tab. The Cookie Tracking dialog will appear:

datasetpropertiescookie

Insert one or more persistent cookie identifiers (if applicable to your website). The cookie identifier should be entered as used on the website. Case-sensitivity considerations should be used. (For example, SessionID= and SESSIONID= will yield different results.) Use Ctrl-Enter to advance the cursor to the next line when entering multiple cookie identifiers.

On the panel below, select a subdomain and add the session cookie identifier. If you have more than one subdomain, select each in turn, insert the session cookie ID, and click Apply before moving on to the next one in the list.

For nameless cookies, check "Use only unnamed cookies," and leave the other fields blank. (The fields will become disabled when this option is selected).

Click OK to save changes and close the dialog.


Note: The special cookie tracking option should only be enabled when your site is using persistent cookies and you wish to analyze data for ad campaigns. When this option is enabled, the ClickTracks Server generates additional data files used by the client software. It also takes additional time and memory for the server to process the logfiles.
