| − | A [[Common Terms#Link Code|linkcode]] is a referral [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator URL] tracked by [[Common Terms#NATS|NATS]].

| − | == Redirecting to the Correct Page ==
| |
| − | When NATS turns a linkcode into a tour URL, it automatically appends a slash (/) to the end of barewords. You can prevent this by appending a question mark to the end of the URL. For example:
| |
| − | | |
| − | {| class="tmplfunc" border="1"
| |
| − | ! Tour URL
| |
| − | ! Where Linkcodes Go
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | <nowiki>http://example.com/tour</nowiki>
| |
| − | | <nowiki>http://example.com/tour/?nats=</nowiki>''natscode''
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | <nowiki>http://example.com/tour?</nowiki>
| |
| − | | <nowiki>http://example.com/tour?nats=</nowiki>''natscode''
| |
| − | |}
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Qualified Link Codes ==
| |
| − | If there's a extra "t" in your linkcode, you probably grabbed the wrong link code from the top of the Sites edit page.
| |

| − | <pre>
| |
| − | http://join.site.com/ttrack/<?=$_REQUEST['nats']?$_REQUEST['nats']:'MDowOjE'?>/page.html
| |
| − | </pre>
| |

| − | The ''ttrack'' is used for qualified clicks; ''track'' is used for normal hits.
| |

| − | == Composition of the NATS Code ==
