Booking Source Tracking for URL Generator

We love the functionality whereby we can set up a widget with a specific source to allow us to track where our bookings come from as this allows us to put effort into the places that have the best results. However, we are now unable to track every source we want to because Google will start listing our hidden pages publicly if we have too many.

It would be fantastic if we could add a source to the URL Generated links we can create in Collins to allow us unlimited tracking capability without affecting our SEO! Please could we add this ASAP?

    This can currently be achieved by affixing the Partner Source parameter to the URL alongside the other conditions added through the tool.

    &partner_source=[source name]

    It is important these sources are also added to your settings in Collins Admin, to allow filtering and reporting.

    For any queries or more details please contact the Access Support team.

    I've submitted a case for this regarding the below :)

    This is great, I had no idea about being able to add that slug to amend the source - we have been using a different one and it wasn't syncing with our reporting or filtering so this solves that issue!

    However, it allows guests to change the booking type which is problematic for us. Could we choose which booking types they are able to book please?

    If we could also choose the sites too that would be amazing. Sometimes we can take bookings for a booking type in one site, but not the other. So when going the longer way round (by using the widget wizard), if we select a booking type which more than one site uses, it automatically enables bookings for them all. It would be better if I could choose whether I wanted it to select the booking types for all sites where this is available, or whether I wanted to select the single booking types per site separately.

    You can do this already manually though by adding Partner_Source= and the name of the partner you have registered in the URL string.

    It would be useful to have this automated though for sure.

    Great idea! Enhancing the source tracking would give us so much more flexibility and clarity on where our bookings are coming from without affecting our SEO

    It would be even better if we were able to add multiple booking types / sites too! e.g. one link but similar to the widget wizard, we can choose which sites and which booking types come up as options!
