Increase variable character limits for s.pageName and s.prop

Existing Functionality: Currently variables such as s.pageName and s.prop have a 100 character limit. This is extremely limiting when implementing a page naming strategy, particularly when including additional information with the page title. For example, site and country. In global suites, its often important to include additional information such as site, country, or a unique page ID to ensure the page name is unique and allow for additional pathing data.

Idea: Increase the character limitation on s.pageName and s.prop to 255 characters to be consistent with other variables such as URL, Referrer, s.eVar, s.hier, and s.campaign.

Also the 20-character limit on transaction ID can be limiting too, when the ID is an email address. However maybe the system auto-truncates, in which case it's probably no big deal.

Agree. The 100 character limit is too few for global, content-rich sites.

Hi

 

I beleive there should not be any limit at all. For long titles omniture can use some terminoligies like 1, 2, 3 after dot(....)

 

OR like Google analytics, it can give give first 100 chracters and show complete title when downloaded or when mouse is dragged on the title.

 

thanks

Mayank

I agree with nickdietsch's idea on increasing the variable character limits for s.pageName and s.prop variables. We are facing numerous challenges with this character limitation.
