Step-by-Step Fix Walkthrough
Fix Step 1: Confirm click ID injection and postback return mapping.
Go here WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links
Do this In "Attribution & Conversion", set Click ID param, copy Trackback Webhook URL, configure network postback, then run one test conversion.

Fix Step 2: Reduce redirect chain complexity.
Go here WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links
Do this Use WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links to run generation for one item first, review the output manually, then continue with the remaining items.

Fix Step 3: Standardize campaign and slug naming conventions.
Go here WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links
Do this In Basics, set "Branded URL" with a unique lowercase slug (no query/hash), then continue when validation passes.
Confirm Private-window click tests should route correctly and keep required attribution params.
Fix Step 4: Run controlled click-to-conversion tests per source.
Go here WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links
Do this Open WordPress Admin→PassiveWP→Branded Links→My Links, click the test/validate action in that screen, and wait for the result notice before continuing.
