Bug #69864
closed
Add most common tracking parameter to default cHashExcludedParameters
100%
Description
If a user links to a TYPO3 page with tracking parameters like pk_campaign, pk_kwd, utm_source, ...
TYPO3 include them in cHash calculation. As the calculated cHash does not match, TYPO3 answers with 404 (Default [FE][pageNotFoundOnCHashError] = 1).
To avoid this, the most common tracking parameters should be added to the default value of $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cHashExcludedParameters'].
As a workaround user can add
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['cHashExcludedParameters'] .= ', pk_campaign, pk_kwd, utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_term, utm_content';
to the AdditionalConfiguration or set the value in the install tool.

I'm against this for two reasons:
- You can do this for yourself easily as you mentioned.
- If we start including stuff like this, we have to constantly extend and update this list without benefit to the general audience. Not everyone is using a tracking solution
Thus I'd vote for closing this issue.

But if a visitor share a link with tools like Buffer the parameters are added.

The interested follower of the visitor than gets a 404 and wonders why.
In my opinion this harms visitor and website owner.

@Mathias Brodala
I don't see what you mean.
The path covers >90% of the installations, so it was right.
The last <10% have to extend the configuration.
You'll never cover 100% with defaults.
