Hi,

I have a self refreshing page that a user views for a long time, i refreshes itself every 30 min.

I would like to setup the affiliate cookie when the access is done, but do not count the initial access to this page and also the refreshed access as a click

will this work if i simply a modified track.js in this case and simply not call the t.php ?

another possible solution may be to use the "check multiple repeating clicks that came from the same IP address (same computer)" but i want to make sure that it will not ignore other clicks to OTHER urls which i do want to count as visits .

what do you suggest i will do ?
Thanks

This will be a problem. When that page will be refreshed, new click will be tracked.

This should be done by using a fraud protection, but as you said, all other clicks within this time will be declined or not saved.

I will discuss this with our programmer and then I let you know.

thanks,

another possible solution would be to define a banner which is hidden from the general public and do not associate it with any specific campaign and do the refresh using that banner ID, if the whole system is crediting sales by PRODUCT IDs then this should work i think
