Once you add AnyTrack TAG on your website, it automatically starts tracking your customer journeys. Events such as AddToCart, InitiateCheckout etc... are automatically tracked and sent to your ad pixels and analytics.
AnyTrack uses specific line item properties _atclid
to ensure tracking is consistent across the customer journey. Some Shopify themes mistakenly display all of the line item properties on the cart page, so you may want to hide this text.
The _atclid
parameter can be seen in the browser address bar, alongside the fbclid
or gclid
set by Facebook Ads or Google Ads.
This how-to article provides instructions to hide these properties.
📹 Check out the tutorial that explains how to fix it
Option 1: Update your Shopify Theme
- Go to Theme actions
- Edit the code
- Select the template:
cart-template.liquid
- Search the code for the string:
-
{% unless p.last == blank %}
-
- Select it and replace it with the following string:
-
{% assign first_character_in_key = p.first | truncate: 1, '' %}
{% unless p.last == blank or first_character_in_key == '_' %}
-
Since this issue is not related to AnyTrack, but affects many stores, Shopify provides a useful guide which gives instructions on how to hide all hidden parameters from your store.
Option 2: Turn off the _atclid
tracking parameter
🚫 This option is not recommended as it directly affects the tracking capabilities available with AnyTrack. But if for some reasons you can't update your theme, you can disable the parameter from the AnyTrack dashboard.
- Navigate to Property Settings >> "Settings" Tab
- Scroll down to the Client Side tracking section
- Open "Shopify" Settings
- Turn off the Hidden parameter option
- Save the settings
