NewletterBuilder links from email header

Re: [4cdg] NewletterBuilder links from email header

Hi,

The Newest versions of the newsletter plugin come with a feature that allow you to track the percentage of people who have clicked links in newsletter e-mails by redirecting them from a page on your site to original link that was clicked. But you do have to create a php script called m.php that handles the redirects.

You can easily disable this feature by opening the newsletterBuilder.php file in your CMS Builder add-ons directory and changing the NLB_TRACK_LINKS global variable (it should be around line 12) from true to false. Then links will appear in the normal format.

$GLOBALS['NLB_TRACK_LINKS'] = false; // track email link "clicks" by rewriting email urls and redirecting them through manage script (industry standard method)

Let me know if you need anymore help.

Thanks!
Greg Thomas

are there instructions to create this m.php script?

I haven't seen any documentation on this in the plugin download?

This morning i recreated the manage page and named it index.php and now the links magically work.

Maybe i had missed something from the code generator.
