Quite a few improvements and fixes were released this morning. Highlights are below and details can be found on www.memberclicks.com/releases
I've been having a terrible time the last two days linking forms in my e-mails to my members. There seems to be two main issues.
1. When I return to leave a blank line between text, it sometimes seems to return half a space. Therefore, if I use shift/return it types over the top of the text I just typed. I could type it in Word and then copy/paste it back into the e-mail system.
2. When I try to link forms, it looks like the link has been placed. However, when you move on to the next screen to view it, the link is no longer there. I've had to resort to just using our web address to link people from an e-mail to our calendar to register for events. Not good.
Hi Tisha,
There should not have been any changes to inserting site links to forms. It sounds like the issue might be related to the content of the email. I'll open a ticket up for you so we can investigate.
Thank you So Much for the new SEF urls. It's been on our wish list for a while :D
I am sooooo happy about the SEF URLs! Thank you!!
Huh. Although....there seems to be some issues with the commenting system :D
The SEF urls are great! I'm now able to include links in our paper newsletter instead of trying to describe where items of interest are located. Before the urls were just too cumbersome to use in our print communications.
Any way to make these SEF URLs pass to the Google Analytics tracking code in their friendly format? I still see the human-unfriendly URLs on my Google Analytics reports. On a side note, I'd love to see MC give its clients the option to use the standard Google asynchronous tracking code rather than the custom script you currently use. http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/tracking/asyncTracking.html
Hi Max,
If you enter the Web Property ID into the new CMS, that should do the trick for the SEF URLs. You'll find Google Analytics under the Components menu. There's a bit more information here too.
I believe it actually has to do with the fact that your custom Google Analytics script is not being inserted into the page footer of the SEF URLs. The script is only getting pulled into the footer of the pages with the old ugly URLs. Compare the source code of these two pages and you will see what I mean:

http://www.art-newyork.org/contact-us
I'd love to see a fix for this in the near term so we can see a full picture of our analytics.
Max, I see what you mean and I'll get a ticket opened up for you
The GA problem with SEF URLs is fixed.
