<h2>Tracking external sources</h2> <p> If you link to your add-on's details page or directly to its file from an external site, such as your blog or website, you can append a parameter to be tracked as an additional download source on this page. For example, the following links would appear as sourced by your blog: <dl> <dt>Add-on Details Page</dt> <dd>https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/%(slug)s?src=<b>external-blog</b></dd> <dt>Direct File Link</dt> <dd>https://addons.mozilla.org/downloads/latest/%(id)s/addon-%(id)s-latest.xpi?src=<b>external-blog</b></dd> </dl> <p> Only src parameters that begin with "external-" will be tracked, up to 61 additional characters. Any text after "external-" can be used to describe the source, such as "external-blog", "external-sidebar", "external-campaign225", etc. The following URL-safe characters are allowed: <code>a-z A-Z - . _ ~ %% +</code>
