HOWTO suppress a utag.link currently developed on page code

[mutuadigmkt]

Hi there,

There are tracking scroll events (50%, 75% and 100%) developed on page by utag.link. I want to delete them without change anything on code -IT developers can't do it right now-, so I'd like to delete them by a workaround made on Tealium, I've find out the following code I've add to an extension:

//event utag data variable is filled with these values (scroll50, scroll75, scroll100) when an user scrolls down 
if (b.event[0] == "scroll50" || b.event[0] == "scroll75" || b.event[0] == "scroll100") {

  window.utag_cfg_ovrd = window.utag_cfg_ovrd || {};
  window.utag_cfg_ovrd.noload = true;
}

I have tried that extension in the following scope cases:

- Scope: Adobe Analytics tag scope  --> doesn't work

- Scope: Pre-Loader scope --> doesn't work

- Scope: All tags & Execution type: 'Before load rules' --> doesn't work

It doesn't work, the extension does not execute at the right time and it doen't suppress the u.link developed on page code. 

Any idea?

Thank you in advance,

Hi @mutuadigmkt. You can code a 'return false' with those conditions and scope it to the tag you want to supress. 

try{
if ((typeof b.event !='undefined')&&( b.event[0] == "scroll50" || b.event[0] == "scroll75" || b.event[0] == "scroll100")) {

return false;

}
}catch(e){}
