Answers.Body: <p>One thing you could do is to add piwik campaign parameters to the URL. If you use a code for your mailing as "Campaign name" and the civicrm contactid as "Keyword" you can track via piwik if people visited the page. You could also use the checksum, but that is more difficult to compare. <a href="https://piwik.org/docs/tracking-campaigns-url-builder/" rel="nofollow">https://piwik.org/docs/tracking-campaigns-url-builder/</a></p>

Answers.Text: Interestingly enough, you'd think that would do it but for some reason, it isn't recording click throughs back to our civi site.  Well, I see one, but it was just to our main site and not to their profile.  I know that at least 200 people clicked back through.

  <p>I can tell from the civicrm_log or civicrm_contact if they changed any of their contact info, but what if I want to know just if they visited the page even if they didn't change anything?
