I've read the supporting documents which suggest that a single clickTAG can be used for .SWF files. However, there is no mention of using multiple clickTAGs to track multiple links per creative. The docs say multiple hard coded links will be tracked if converted, but no guidance on use of clickTAG2, clickTAG3 etc. My questions are:

a ) Will clickTAG, clickTAG2 and and clickTAG3 prompt the application to ask me for 3 different destination URLs?
b ) Will it track the clicks separately or just produce an overall total number of clicks?
c ) Are there any macros available for tracking clicks on multiple clickTAGs? (the placement of %c on destination URLs in Doubleclick for example enables invidual link click counting).

and.. d) if I can't do 'a' AND 'b' are multiple hardcoded links counted separately?

All guidance much appreciated!

Ive just received a campaign that needs this functionality.

What is the best way to do it?

Will this be implemented into OA at all?

This is supported with HardCoded links, but not with clickTAG. The clicks are counted against the bannerID

Thanks for the reply Arlen.

Are there any plans to implement a feature allowing multiple clickTAGs or will it be something we have to implement ourselves?

Hello,

No there are not currently plans. However I've created a feature request here:
https://developer.openx.org/jira/browse/OX-1465

You can vote for this feature using this ticket - search for 'voting' on that page

If the banner has multiple hardcoded links, can the clicks be counted for each link separately? I have couple of such ads, but I only see one number for all clicks.

No, I'm afraid that feature doesn't exist currently
