Preserve attribution on direct revisit

When on (default), a later visit with empty Referer and no new ?aff=/?wm= does not clear cookies early.

Preserve attribution on direct revisit

When on, a later visit without new ?aff= / ?wm= does not clear an existing attribution cookie before it expires.

Where to find it

Admin → Settings → AffiliationPreserve attribution on direct revisit

Setting key: aff.preserve_attribution_on_direct_revisit

Default: on

How it works

Helps when a referred user bookmarks the site and returns later to buy. A new affiliate or webmaster link still overwrites last-click attribution.

When off, a visit with empty Referer and no aff/wm params deletes both cookies. A visit that only lacks query params but still has an external Referer does not clear cookies.
