When I finish voting, I see a page with a button on it. If I do not use url parameters, it is just shows the url to my site. If I do use url parameters, those parameters are included in that link. That's not how the url parameters are intended to be used. They are intended to be used by admins for tracking, correct?
URL parameters will be forwarded when you check the option »Forwarding URL Parameters«. From our help docs:
Forwarding URL Parameters:
When this option is enabled, the URL parameters you provide will also be appended to the buttons on the thank-you pages (if configured). This allows for the complete tracking of the participation process.
Thanks. I thought it was necessary to check that box because it says right under it "Transfer user data to PollUnit by appending key value pairs to the participant link." There is no other explanation of what this does on the form.
You should see a question mark symbol at the main option. This shows an explanation to all available options. But I will discuss this if we can make this more clear in the interface.
That sentence should be at the top of the section above "Allowed keys" instead of at the bottom.
