    I’m looking for a solution to automatically display the most popular outbound links that were clicked in the last 24 hours.

    Outbound links usually don’t have associated IDs stored on the database (they’re just links after all) so no, that’s not something WPP can do.

    For this kind of stuff you may want to use JavaScript to capture the click event, then store the interaction (click and URL I guess) somewhere (eg. a database table) so later on you can use the data to build a list of most clicked outbound links. That’s how I would do it anyways.

    If you use Google Analytics then you could also use that to track these clicks: Capture outbound links.
