Hi,

When I create a email with Mautic it uses generateTrackableUrl method to add contact informations (ct url parameter) to all links. If someone opens that link it goes to PageBundle PublicController redirect method. That method doesn’t use trackable url data at all and creates new contact every time. So should that redirect method use getContactFromRequest method and that way recognize contact that have clicked that link in the email?

Hey Teemu, this is a very good point. However, development activity is not very high in this forum. You might want to post an issue at GitHub for Mautic.
