Changing System Settings

To change any of the system settings, click on “System Settings” in the “Admin” sub menu. A page containing the current system settings will be displayed.

Here is a list of the system settings you can modify as needed. If you edit any of these settings, make sure you fully understand what they do first. An improper setting can cause Click Tracker Plus to not function properly.

Script URLs

Click Tracker URL:
This is the URL to the ct.php click tracker file. If you rename this file or move it to another location, update this URL to point to the new location and or file name.

If you move the location of this file, make sure you edit the file and update the following lines to point to the locations of the files they reference.

include “admin/config.inc.php”;
include “admin/functions.php”;
require_once ‘Mobile_Detect.php’;
require(‘admin/geo/MaxMind/autoload.php’);

If you simply rename this file and keep it in the same location, the above lines do not need to be edited.

If you already have click trackers using the previous file name or URL, leave a copy of the ct.php file in the old location so any click tracker links you have created previously will still function. Only delete the old ct.php file when it is no longer needed.
