Wix dropping custom query params from url

We have a wix landing page - which marketing team will be promoting and using query params to track perforamance and such.

We are redirecting a click from wix landing page into our site and we want to just carry over those query params into our site.

In order to do that I am simply getting the URL and extracting query params, however what I noticed is while doing that it removes some query params.

Example url :
https://www.register1.diet.mayoclinic.org?promo=5D506E4C-EA78-4252-84A1-FEAA6E8231A7&utm_campaign=WixPageControl&utm_content=Homepage&utm_medium=Google&utm_source=PaidSearch&utm_term=BMM

var url = wixLocation.url;
console.log(url);

This is what I get :

https://www.register1.diet.mayoclinic.org?promo=5D506E4C-EA78-4252-84A1-FEAA6E8231A7&utm_content=Homepage&utm_medium=Google&utm_source=PaidSearch&utm_term=BMM

If you notice it has removed : utm_campaign=WixPageControl

Is that something Wix is intentionally doing ? We have to pass the utm campaign into our site for further tracking.

Hi,
Please share your editor’s URL so we can inspect, only authorised wix employees can use the link .
Have you tried to use wixLocation.query ?

You mean this :

For the url : https://www.register2.diet.mayoclinic.org/?promo=52-qtr-1wktrial&utm_source=Search&utm_medium=Google&utm_campaign=TopBrandedExact_Wix2

When I do console.log :
console.log(wixLocation.query);

It gives me back :

{promo: “52-qtr-1wktrial”, utm_medium: “Google”, utm_source: “Search”}

It strips off : utm_campaign

Hello, the same is happening to me. Is there any solution?

We did not get a response and thus ended up not using some of the utm params

Thanks for your response mmandviwala… I opened another post to see if they respond: https://www.wix.com/corvid/forum/community-discussion/wixlocation-is-removing-utm-campaign
