Custom Campaigns with ? not working
I used to track all of my traffic from Instagram by using /?ig for example www.liv360.com/?ig, but now it is not showing any traffic coming from that url in spy or the visitor details.
This would provide me the information I needed to track Instagram traffic without having a very long UTM campaign link. I would do this short campaign test with many different sites for example.
In these cases we cannot use a long UTM campaign and we need to be able to track these custom ? campaigns.
Is this something you changed? Please bring this functionality back.
Thanks!

The format for dynamic campaigns is ?utm_campaign= thus www.liv360.com/?utm_campaign=ig
I don't know why/how your current link structure was working in the past, but going forward you should used the full UTM parameter

@restado maybe my wording was incorrect. For a true campaign we use the full UTM. However for Instagram our goal was to keep the URL link as short as possible.
We were using the /? to track page views. For example www.liv360.com/?ig would mean we had a visitor/page view that come in from Instagram.
Clicky used to show these urls as individual page views. I can try ?utm_campaign= but I would still like to be able to use just /?

celsya, which of your sites is this for?
Nothing should have changed that would cause the "ig" parameter to be removed from your URLs, unless you created a filter for that parameter specifically. See our latest blog post for more info about the new filter system.

@clicky nothing changed on my end. We don't have any filters. Its for our site www.liv360.com.
The last parameter I noticed was on Oct. 20th and was /?cleaneater
It used to show the visitor landing page was /?cleaneater but now it is just /
We use a few different parameters for tracking.

Ok, the issue is that your landing page redirects away from the ?ig page to just the landing page.
E.g. I go here:
https://www.liv360.com/?ig
And I'm redirected to here:
https://www.liv360.com/
