Exclude by Cookie - configureable cookie name and path #1364
Comments
I honestly don't see the relavance for this. Why would one want to change the name of the cookie if it does it's work? Vote for: wontfix |
in google analytics you can select the cookie name (see To exclude traffic by Cookie Content) |
Isn't it already called piwik_ignore? |
yes currently it is piwik_ignore |
We should make this configurable to be consistent with login_cookie_name and (visitor) cookie_name in global.ini.php. At the same time, we should also start signing cookies as a pre-caution against anti-tracking cookies. |
Attachment: Adds "exclude_webmaster_cookie_name" to global.ini.php and adjusts code. |
Added suggestion from http://forum.piwik.org/index.php?showtopic=9751 |
(In [2227]) fixes #1364 - committed patch by halfdan with some minor edits; thanks |
