  • Re: Integrating Marketo lead database and Google Analytics

    @Ronald R You'd probably want to use a GA Custom Dimension to separate known from anonymous leads.ga('send', 'pageview', { 'dimension0': 'known'});However, there is a inherent problem. How are you going to know to set this dimension to "known" or "anonymous"? That is, how do you know at a given ...

  • solved badge Re: Google Analytics Campaign Query String

    It depends on what you mean by "a way." 🙂 Our marketing team has a bookmarklet (small helper script on their browser's bookmarks bar) that checks every link in an email to ensure it has a certain value in the query string. You could adapt the same idea to actually add the string if it's missing (in...

  • Re: Determining Browser Usage

    @Runjini Place the Browser filter on Viewed Web Page activity, not Clicked Link in Email (you can add Clicked Link as an additional constraint).The Browser box will still be free text, but it will indeed search in the User-Agent string for your page views. For example, if you enter "MSIE 10.0" it w...

  • Re: Contact Page Validation on Text feild

    @Rachit There's no reason to allow the form to post at all, then. You can still filter client-side (which is WAY easier with regular expressions than trying to build filters in the Mkto UI *shudder*). Just discard the form data if you don't like it. Don't bother telling the user you didn't actuall...

  • Re: Leads inadvertently getting updated in Marketo

    @Laura, unless you follow @Josh's instructions then the name is self-service-updateable, yes.A caveat is that if you block field updates then you are (again, this is by definition) saying that a user cannot clarify or extend their record in a good way or a bad way. In other words, if you have an ex...

  • solved badge Re: Munchkin code problem

    The API key is not used for the Munchkin.init() visitWebPage call, so that cannot have been the cause of the CORS error (the server does not receive the API key at that step, so it can't validate it). Glad it is working now in any case.

  • Re: Leads inadvertently getting updated in Marketo

    @Laura K It sounds like it isn't so much inadvertent as by design! (Maybe not your ideal design, but Marketo Forms 2.0 are designed as self-service personal info forms.)If you want leads to recommend others, there should be a different fieldset for that ("Invite a friend - Enter their info here") an...

  • Re: Best Practices For Tracking/Alerting On Interesting Moments withou...

    Hey @Stephen - I agree with what @Josh says about `Last ` (though in a way the `Last Interesting Moment` suggests that Marketo wants you to see value there).As I mentioned in an overlapping thread the other day, you can log the `Last Form Fillout Source` by creating this new field and adding it as a...

  • Re: Field label position settings on forms 2.0

    Sure, (almost) anything's possible using CSS. Post a link to your form.
