      Hi

      I'm setting up individual campaigns on MA for a clients new regional/language focused sub sites and want to confirm/clarify correct set up before i proceed:

      Client has set up Turkish language sub-site on sub-folder/directory: domain.com/tr/ & similar for German language pages domain.com/de/ (but /de/ is also domain mapped to a tld:  www.domain.com/de).

      In MA campaign set up first page/form asks: 'What site do you want to track?' and then has an 'exclude sub-domains' checkbox option.  I take it that since, with this campaign, i just want to monitor only these Turkish pages i simply add domain.com/tr/ and then select the 'exclude sub-domains' checkbox so doesn't track any info relating to domain.com or www.domain.com or domain.com/de/ ? (Since domain.com/de/ is a sub-folder not a sub-domain how does MA know to avoid this data, because i have specificed domain.com/tr/ subfolder in the site field ?)

      Re German pages: Since the domain.com/de/ has been domain mapped to www.domain.de i can just add this tld to the site field in set up page and can leave the 'exlude sub-domains' checkbox unchecked ?

      All Best

        Correct. During setup, if you specific -- domain.com/tr/ -- the campaign will only look at the subfolder and everything under it.

        For www.domain.de, if everything is properly directed to domain.com/de/ that would work too. You can leave the subdomain box unchecked if you don't have any subdomains under domain.de.

        Hope that helps! 🙂
