If so, did you add /linker/ to the affiliate tracking section? * -Chris * Thread Starter [EricFred](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericfred/) * (@ericfred) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8815382) * Nope i didn’t sepcific add it anywhere, i checked the “track outgoing links and downloads”, and some of the other stuff. – Do you have some docs, so i can learn if i have to do something more? * Plugin Author [chriscct7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chriscct7/) * (@chriscct7) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8819479) * Hi there, We have documentation at [https://www.monsterinsights.com/docs/](https://www.monsterinsights.com/docs/). We’re in the process of launching more and more docs in preparation for the Lite 6.0 release, so the pictures won’t look like the version you have installed if you’re using MonsterInsights’s Lite version until we release 6.0 for Lite users( Pro users already have it). * -Chris * Thread Starter [EricFred](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericfred/) * (@ericfred) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8819908) * Okay now i checked your docs, and I can’t find anyting about link tracking. * As i stated earlier i checked the funcktion that it should track my outgoing links by making events in google analytics, but nothing happens. – and it is 7 days ago. * Do you have any suggestions on what is going wrong? * Plugin Author [chriscct7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chriscct7/) * (@chriscct7) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8820838) * Hi there, If you’re using an external redirect, to send /linker/something to another website, you need to add /linker/ into the affiliate links section for it to be tracked as an external link. If you’ve done that already, if you could get in touch with us at monsterinsights.com/contact, we’d be happy to login and see what’s going on * -Chris * Thread Starter [EricFred](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericfred/) * (@ericfred) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8821032) * Hello Chris * Thanks for your patience on this one! – Where is the affiliate section, right now i have the free version, do i need to buy something to get this feature? * Plugin Author [chriscct7](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chriscct7/) * (@chriscct7) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8821072) * Hi there, In the lite version this setting is called “Set path for internal links to track as outbound links:” on the Advanced Section * -Chris * Thread Starter [EricFred](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ericfred/) * (@ericfred) * [9 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/linktracking-doesnt-work/#post-8824613) * Arh i see, don’t know how i didnt see that function.
