How to hide unwanted AnyTrack tracking parameters on Shopify?

Once you add AnyTrack TAG on your website, it automatically starts tracking every product your clients add on checkout.

In order to track purchases, AnyTrack adds a hidden line property _atclid for each product with AnyTrack click id on its value. This property is hidden for your clients and only visible on the Shopify admin panel. AnyTrack uses this line property to attribute each of your cards and orders on your stores with your users and it’s required for the Shopify webhooks integration.

If you're still seeing the click ids on your store, we have a few options that may help you solve it and remove the tracking parameters.

📹 Check out the tutorial that explains how to fix it 

Option 1: Fix your Shopify Theme

1. Go to Theme actions
2. Edit code
3. On the templates section you will find cart-template.liquid or cart.liquid (you can also search for it)

Following this Shopify guide will give you instruction how you should hide all hidden properties on your store. You will need to use this code on your cart-template.liquid or cart.liquid files to filer out any property that start with an underscore (_):

{% assign first_character_in_key = p.first | truncate: 1, '' %}
{% unless p.last == blank or first_character_in_key == '_' %}
  ...
{% endunless %}

The results should look similar to this:

{% assign property_size = item.properties | size %}
{% if property_size > 0 %}
  {% for p in item.properties %}
    {% assign first_character_in_key = p.first | truncate: 1, '' %}
    {% unless p.last == blank or first_character_in_key == '_' %}
      {{ p.first }}:
      {% if p.last contains '/uploads/' %}
        <a href="{{ p.last }}">{{ p.last | split: '/' | last }}</a>
      {% else %}
        {{ p.last }}
      {% endif %}
    {% endunless %}
  {% endfor %}
{% endif %}

Q: Can't find this code on your template?

Try search only for the following line:

{% unless p.last == blank %}

And replace it with the following:

{% assign first_character_in_key = p.first | truncate: 1, '' %}
{% unless p.last == blank or first_character_in_key == '_' %}

Option 2: Turning off the hidden parameters tracking 

1. Navigate to Property Settings >> "Settings" Tab 
2. Open "Shopify" Settings
3.  Turn off the option: Add hidden tracking parameters on checkouts and carts
   
   Now AnyTrack will track from the server-side based on using URL tracking parameters and you will not see the unwanted parameters in the products anymore.
