Option to “Ignore Query Parameter”

    Just curious of the behavior when “/?utm_source=example” is attached to the end of a URL with deactivated plugins via FDP. I remember in the past that had to be manually defined in Custom URL’s which is quite tedious as globally defining deactivated plugins for a query parameter is similar to not deactivating any plugins at all.

    My idea/question/proposition is that there is an option to “ignore query parameter” similar to the options offered by cloudflare:

    • No Query String:?Only delivers files from cache when there is no query string. (Only engage FDP selection when there is no query string)
    • Ignore Query String:?Delivers the same resource to everyone independent of the query string. (Deliver the same FDP settings as if there were no query string)
    • Standard:?Delivers a different resource each time the query string changes. (Not necessarily applicable but would deliver unique FDP settings depending on the query string which could simply be done in the custom url settings already)

    Hi @tanner96,

    query strings are ignored by default.
    If you need to specify the set of plugins for a specific query string you can do it in Custom URLs => Frontend URLs. Following your example you can use the pattern *utm_source=*

    In the same settings page, you can decide to ignore any query strings only for the homepage. You can use the pattern [home]?* to match the homepage URL with whatever query arguments.

    Let me know if you need more clarification.

    Have a great day!

    Jose
