            Bug ID: 33644
           Summary: Link tracking
 Change sponsored?: ---
           Product: Koha
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5 - low
         Component: OPAC
          Assignee: oleonard at myacpl.org

It would be awesome if we could add a unique parameter to the opac url that,
when used, would be recorded in a table as a use.  It would record the link,
and how many times it has been clicked.

Sometimes we set up links on signage, or websites, or in a QR code, and it
would be great to measure which links are being utilized where.

So, maybe we could have a link that is in a QR code being displayed in a
particular location, like
https://YOUROPAC/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=(su%3A%7BGardening.%7D).  Maybe
we add a parameter like &track=qrnorthdisplay, and every time this link is
visited, it would save to a tracking table, maybe linktracking.  It would save
the &track parameter, and then keep count every time that link is hit.  That
way it would only have one record in the table, rather than one for every
click.

Maybe you want one for every click so you could time stamp it and see when it
is being clicked?  I don't know.  But this would be such a handy feature,
especially for establishing how effective links are, and usage.
