@micropat Is it possible to use similar code for the hover image share buttons as well?

— Jim

OMG – that worked perfectly!! Thank you so much for your help – that’s exactly what I needed!

— Jim

Ok, I think I figured this out after testing a few options. I left my links alone in the Pretty Link dashboard, but I did check the box for “Parameter Forwarding” for each of them.

Then I added the “?qsoffer” to my Pretty Link URLs I was using in my posts. In other words, each link in my post now says something along the lines of mydomain.com/go/abc-card?qsoffer.

Once I did those two things, when I would click on one of those links, it opened up to the new full link and carried the parameter with it.

So I think it’s now good, but thought I’d share in case anyone’s in the same boat I was.

Good luck!

Thanks, Priscilla – I’ll do that. Would you like me to mark this as resolved or leave it open?

Ok thanks

Thanks, Ahmed – I already have the working code going for this. The page works just fine – you can check it out at https://www.routetoretire.com/archives/ to see.

My problem is that the AMP plugin doesn’t work on that page so I just turned AMP off for it as a workaround.

— Jim

Hi Ahmed – the URL is https://www.routetoretire.com/archives/

Without pasting the whole code for the page, the PHP code basically runs things like:

<?php compact_archive($style=’block’); ?>

and

<?php wp_list_categories(‘title_li=’); ?>

Then it runs some code to get all posts and break them up by month.

Does that help or do you need more info?

— Jim

Well, that page is a list of all my posts that is created on the fly through PHP. It would be a real hassle to have to create the content manually each time instead of leveraging PHP to just do the work for me.

Did you have another thought on this?

— Jim

I’m not sure if this will work, but I decided to just exclude AMP for that page. Hopefully, Google will be Ok with that.

— Jim

Ok, thanks, Ahmed – I’ll try to figure out how to override the file with PHP code. Hopefully that doesn’t turn out to be to hard to do.

— Jim

I’m always good with the easy solution, Ahmed! However, since it’s all PHP, can I add that into the Custom AMP Editor?

— Jim

Wow, you’re good! Yes, the template is set to Archives so I assume that means that it just uses all the code in the page-archive.php. Looking at the page-archive.php page in the Editor, it does say Archives Page Template and is listed as the template name in the code of the PHP file.

Well, good news – this fixed itself after 6.3.0. Not sure what changed in the year and a half of updates before this one, but it looks like we’re good now! The dashboard shows countries and IPs being blocked and the email reflects this as well.

— Jim

Sorry @nobith – just saw your post. I believe I do have that ability, but I have that shut off on my pages and just open on my posts.

— Jim

Oh my gosh – I am so sorry… I somehow missed that you had replied back to this. Yes, Live Traffic view is always constantly changing and filled with realtime data.
