Adding querystring variables from adjs/adframe to flow through to click and log URLs

Hi folks,

I am using Revive as part of an RTB bidding platform.  There are a ton of querystring variables that I want to pass through to the click and log URLs that are passed into the adjs call.  When I add a new variable, so the URL is something like:

http://localhost/revive/delivery/ajs.php?zoneid=1&cb=52153050782&foo=bar

The resulting javascript, which initiates the click and log URL's, does not contain foo=bar.

I set about creating a plugin to allow this.

+1 for an example plugin for every available hook!
+1 for additional documentation!
(I realize the irony here that the plugin framework was built while I was intimately involved with this project, and the documentation and examples should have come from my team :) )

After building a plugin based on the 'addUrlParams' hook, so the following componentParams get passed:  "foo" => "{foo}"

I realized that the values get URL encoded, so I cannot pass in a variable {foo} to be translated because it gets URL encoded.

Am I missing something here?  If not, can I submit a pull request where new values can be added in the config file?

Thanks!

Love, Scott

Hey @Scott Switzer! Welcome to our forums, mate :)

I believe the feature is interesting, but I think a plugin might better serve the community, as the feature itself will probably be useful only to a small percentage of the user base. I think you are onto something with the plugin, and you might just need to swap {foo} for the actual $_REQUEST['foo'] value.

I'll have a look at the PR, but if we can get the plugin working, it would be even better IMHO.
