Anonymous Leads by Cookie instead of IP

Product Support
1

I am aware that most people want anonymous leads to be split by IP to avoid clutter.

But for my specific scenario, due to large number of people sharing IP addresses, I need it to be split on a browser cookie level.



Is it possible to do currently?

It would be good if there is a setting/flag to change the classification of Anonymous Leads by either IP or Cookie.

I am a PHP programmer and I don’t mind developing this feature.

Would appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction to do this and the difficulties that I may encounter.



If I succeed, I will gladly submit the code back to be incorporated into the main branch

There has been a discussion about this topic few times already. It’d be great if you could make this configurable. Take a look at the hitPage method: https://github.com/mautic/mautic/blob/staging/app/bundles/PageBundle/Model/PageModel.php#L337
