Automatic uploading of subid stats for Tracking 202
Tracking202 is a great piece of web tracking software. The thing that annoys me though is that I have to upload subid stats (”Optional Info”) to load in the conversions, unless I use the postback or tracking pixel method (which I don’t always have the option to do, and I’m not a high volume guy anyway).
I wrote a quick script that uses the DT web services and updates the stats automagically. It Works For Me (TM).
Usage:
- Put it in some directory, preferably outside your web root.
- online casinoEdit the script to point to your 202-config.php file, and the DT info for the companies you wish to use
- Call it from cron periodically (php /path/to/updatestats.php). It asks for the last 7 days of stats by default, but you can safely run this script more frequently because it will not double-count conversions.
You can also run this with the “all” paramater, ie “php updatestats.php all” and it will download and update the last 10 years of stats
