===== Email Tracker =====

==== Simple pixel based email tracker with PHP. ====
um zu prüfen, ob gesendete Emails auch geöffnet / gelesen wurden, kann man ein hidden Pixel dazu benutzen.\\

==== This script allows you to track opens of HTML emails. ====

=== How to: ===

  - Set-up a local environment in order to test and run the PHP script.
  - Once you've run the script, each time you open the email in your browser your IP address will be logged on the log.txt file.
  - When you're satisfied with the script, you can host the script on the server. However don't forget to change the local path of the tracking pixel to the actual URL.
  - When properly set-up each time a person opens the email, his IP-address should be logged on the log.txt file.

<code>
<img src="tracker.php?image=tracking.gif" alt="">
</code>

== Replace local path by your URL path ==

<code>
<img src="http://yourpath/tracker.php?image=tracking.gif" alt="">
</code>

=== Useful Tips: ===

  - You can use geo-location services like [[http://ip-api.com/docs/|http://ip-api.com/docs/]] to return the actual location of the IP-address.
  - Additionally you could use the [[https://www.mapbox.com/|MAPBOX API]] to visualize the locations on a map.
