NATS4 Additional Tracking

Feature Summary

In NATS 4.1, you have the ability to allow your affiliates to add additional passthrough variables in their linkcodes that will get stored with a member's subscription record. These variables become available on postbacks. In addition to these passthroughs, methods for forcing the join option to be used on the join form and changing the default join option have also been added. These additional tracking features can only be used if you allow this in their "Edit Affiliate Admin Settings" page. Once you enable the feature for their account, they can add a "nats_at" array with the additional variables to the end of a link code.

Join Option Variables

You can force a specific join option on the join form by passing the following variable in the URL: nats_at[force_optionid]

You can change the default join option on the join form by passing a similar variable: nats_at[default_optionid]

Subscription Passthrough Variables

You can add up to 5 additional subscription passthrough variables that will get stored with a member's subscription
nats_at[subscription_passthrough1]
nats_at[subscription_passthrough2]
nats_at[subscription_passthrough3]
nats_at[subscription_passthrough4]
nats_at[subscription_passthrough5]

The tracking is site specific. Going through a link code resets it.
