UTM Manager – UTM Tracking, Lead Attribution & Campaign Analytics

🧲 First-Touch & Last-Touch Attribution

• Every lead stores the campaign, landing page, and referrer that first brought them in
• The last-touch attribution is refreshed on every new campaign visit
• First-touch data is never overwritten — you always know the original source
• Full page-by-page visit journey (browsing history) per lead

👤 Automatic Lead Identification

• Anonymous visitors are tracked with a random first-party visitor ID
• When a visitor logs in, their WordPress user account and email are linked to the lead automatically
• Identity priority: email → user account → visitor ID — once known, never lost
• Returning visitors update the same lead instead of creating duplicates

📊 Comprehensive Lead Management

• View all captured leads in a clean, sortable table
• Filter by UTM source, medium, campaign, and date range
• Search leads by email, visitor ID, or UTM values
• Full visit journey timeline on the single-lead view
• Bulk delete leads with one click
• Customizable leads-per-page via Screen Options

📥 CSV Export Tool

• Export unlimited leads to CSV format
• Filter exports by custom date range
• Select exactly which fields to export (visitor ID, email, user ID, UTM values, visits, last seen)
• Process large datasets without timeouts — the export runs in batched steps
• Built-in protection against CSV formula injection when opening exports in Excel or Google Sheets

⚡ Cache-Proof, Performance-First Tracking (New in v2.0)

• Tracking happens through a deferred, non-blocking beacon ( navigator.sendBeacon )
• Nothing runs during page render — zero impact on page speed and Core Web Vitals
• Works behind full-page caching (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, Cloudflare, Varnish, host-level caches)
• Data is stored in fast, indexed custom database tables — not post meta

⚙️ Flexible Configuration

• Enable or disable each UTM parameter individually
• Choose exactly which parameters to track
• Configure tracking to match your marketing strategy
• Simple, intuitive settings interface

🔒 Privacy & Security First

• IP addresses are never stored raw — only a salted, irreversible hash (proxy/Cloudflare-aware detection)
• Visitors are identified by a random first-party ID, never by IP
• Developer filters to disable IP storage entirely or gate tracking behind a consent plugin
• All data stored locally in your WordPress database — no external data transmission, ever
• Proper input sanitization, output escaping, nonce verification, and capability checks throughout
