Support for UTM fields

    I would like to capture UTM fields in all my marketing forms using special Caldera Tag:
    https://calderaforms.com/doc/utm-fields/

    However, while Caldera Forms records tags just fine, Sheets processor fails to process them properly. One virtual UTM field really translates into 5 hidden subfields (source, medium, etc), but the Google Sheets plugin dumps all raw text contents into one field, instead of creating five subfields as it should. That is not workable for processing the real-world UTM tracking schemes…

    To test this issue place a UTM Caldera Form field on a page with URL like this:
    http://example.com/form_page?utm_medium=test&utm_campaign=test_campaign

    I’m hoping to figure out some solution to this problem ASAP…

    Quick update – I found a workaround.

    Capturing UTM parameters with the following plugin and then passing them to Caldera Forms as hidden fields populated from the request: {request:utm_medium}

    So not as much urgency to fix the Sheets integration, though at least this issue should be documented …
