Redirect settings questions
« on: June 24, 2010, 09:45:04 AM »
I have noticed that with the latest updates you added Settings > Out > Redirect Settings

That sounds like a great addition, but I have some doubts:
1. For redirect by User Agent: Do I just enter the name, e.g. Baiduspider, or the complete User-Agent string, as found in the detailed stats?

2. Does this the same as blocking these by means of .htaccess (which I am doing right now)

3. I assume that these are showing up as 'redirected' in the trade stats. Is that correct?

4. And if the answer to the above question is yes, will this have an influence on my trade prod?

1. Part of User-Agent is enough. So if you wanna redirect Baiduspider, then set 'Baidu' or 'spider' as condition - it will work in both cases. So be careful with this kind of redirects.
2. No. htaccess blocking will work faster.
3. Yes.
4. Sure it will, these redirected clicks won't be counted for trades.
