This allows you to add a unique reference to an e-mail campaign that will be passed through to Google Analytics whenever a recipient clicks on a link to your site from your e-mail campaign.  The visit is then records in your Google Analytics report as coming from that campaign, allowing you to track it's effectiveness.

It's really easy to set up and can be added to new campaigns or existing ones.  We've written a how-to on setting up Google Analytics tracking for those who want to give it a go.

From this feedback we would like to announce two small new features which may be useful in some circumstances.

Disable WYSIWYG Editor:

Some users design their e-mail templates in their favourite design program (Dreamweaver etc) and host the images for their mailer on their own servers.  In these cases it may be desirable to bypass the built-in WYSIWYG editor functionality. 

To turn off the WYSIWYG you will need to click on the Options tab, then Preferences and tick the Disable WYSIWYG Editor checkbox. With the editor disabled you will simply be provided with a standard text box to paste your HTML code into.

Disable Link Tracking:

Suite26 has always had the ability to turn tracking (opens & clicks) off on a per e-mail basis (available from the Send Campaign wizard), but it is now possible to disable tracking for a specific link within a campaign.

You may want to do this if you have a link which you wish to insert personalised information into (such as a membership number or e-mail address).  To disable tracking for a specific link you will need to switch the WYSIWYG editor into HTML code view and edit the link to add so that it contains rel="s26-no-track" - your link should look like this:

<a rel="s26-no-track" href="http://www.mylinkhere.com/mylink.html">

If you require any help with these new features or need further information, please e-mail support@26.co.uk and we will be happy to assist.
