Hi, I don't get similar kind of search URL result, I've tried to resolve my query as per your blog but unfortunately I'm still not getting the search term result.I'm getting this type of serach URL:
property-listing/?wpp_search%5Bpagination%5D=on&wpp_search%5Bper_page%5D=10&wpp_search%5Bstrict_search%5D=false&wpp_search%5Blocation%5D=Houston%2C+TX%2C+USA&wpp_search%5Bproperty_type%5D=1_and_2_bedrooms_only%2C1_2_and_3_bedrooms_only%2C2_3_and_4_bedrooms_only&wpp_search%5Bcity%5D=&wpp_search%5Bstate%5D=&wpp_search%5Bzip%5D=
can you help to get search term result?
Hey Benjamin, great instruction! hope to see more coming! 🙂
Mine is still empty even after turning it On and putting 's' .. Any idea why?
UPDATE: I turned it Off then turn it On again, then tried searching. It captures the search in Google Data Studio but not in Analytics. Also the second search onwards will not be captured anymore, only the first search. What's wrong with this thing?
Configuration options (including without query parameters) – this page is not available, can you please help!!
Great vid!
