Feature request: support for compound user-ID

[mlsomers]

Hi thanks for creating this plugin!

Unfortunately we have user ID's that have the users full name, email address and employee number in it. If a regular-expression like can be used to get the first email address found in the user-id then it would also work for us.

I tried to find the part where the user-id (email-address) is converted to a hash, but without success, I'm also not a PHP coder, otherwise I would have created a pull request :-) But I think you can use this snippet I forged from here

preg_match_all("/[\._a-zA-Z0-9-]+@[\._a-zA-Z0-9-]+/i", $userid, $matches);
$email = $matches[0];

Hope you will consider implementing this enhancement :-)

Cheers, Louis

Hi,

Thank you for this issue. In your case, I think you need to prepare the data before sending it to Matomo using the code snippet. This plugin allows you to only provide an email hash, there is no data processing in the plugin. If you need to process data, this must be done on the website, before sending it to the plugin.

Bests, Ronan
