Re-evaluate load rules, tags,... on Anchor Links

[philippe_uytten]

Hello everyone,

On our websites, we have sorting rules for our products.
The filters are evaluated based on the querystring parameters passed in an anchor link.

For instance :
http://estore-uk.pandora.net/charms/
Will have sorting rules based on price between 100 and 150 applied by loading :
http://estore-uk.pandora.net/charms/#pmin=100&pmax=150

This is however not a real reload of the page.

Could we have the tags as if this was a new page (without asking Dev teams step in with either a window.location.reload(true) or include a random value parameter for a forced reload)?

Thanks for the feedback

Hi Philippe,

The latest version of the utag loader, allows you reload tags based on both a utag.view({...}) and utag.link({...}) call. So in the eyes on the utag.js file, this would be seen as a new page.

All you will need to do is call, utag.view({...}), to bring in any new tags.

Hello Adrian,
Thanks for the answer, but that would mean to go back to devs to have the utag.link/view implemented with the complete data layer passed...

I was hoping for a quick method (our code change lifecycle takes about 4-6 weeks minimum)

all the best

Hi Philippe,

So looking at your site you could use jQuery handlers, set-up in-side TiQ to trigger the the utag.view({...}); with the required data.

You're probably best raising a case with your Account Manager / Solutions Engineer about creating the required selectors / handlers to get this done.

As an example of what you could do, here is a brief JS code snippet:

$('li > a','.refineattributes').on("click", function(){
    utag.view({"href" : this.href});
  });
