Pass current UTMS to in page links Javascript

passUTM.js

// JS for grabbing utm params and parsing into url
var getRefQueryParam = function() {
var temp = {};
document.location.search.replace(/\??(?:([^=]+)=([^&]*)&?)/g, function() {
var decode = function(s) {
return decodeURIComponent(s.split("+").join(" "));
};
temp[decode(arguments[1])] = decode(arguments[2]);
});
return temp;
};

// Get all the UTM parameters before the page finishes rendering
//Variables
var utmParamQueryString = '',
utmParamQueryStringTrimmed = '',
utm_source = '',
utm_medium = '',
utm_content = '',
utm_campaign = '',
(function() {
utm_source = getRefQueryParam("utm_source");
utm_medium = getRefQueryParam("utm_medium");
utm_content = getRefQueryParam("utm_content");
utm_campaign = getRefQueryParam("utm_campaign");

if (utm_source) {
  utmParamQueryString += '&utm_source=' + utm_source;
}
if (utm_medium) {
  utmParamQueryString += '&utm_medium=' + utm_medium;
}
if (utm_content) {
  utmParamQueryString += '&utm_content=' + utm_content;
}
if (utm_campaign) {
  utmParamQueryString += '&utm_campaign=' + utm_campaign;
}
// if there are utm values add them all up
if (utmParamQueryString.length > 0) {
  utmParamQueryString = utmParamQueryString.substring(1);
  utmParamQueryStringTrimmed = utmParamQueryString;
  utmParamQueryString = '?' + utmParamQueryString;
}
})();

// Grab all links you want to target - change the class to whatever you are using i.e .utm-passthrough
var navlinks = document.querySelectorAll('a.utm-passthrough');
// Loop through all links
Array.prototype.forEach.call(links, function (link) {
       // Take the href and append the UTM parameters
       link.href += utmParamQueryString;
});

Thanks for the great work.

I have one question. What do I have to change to have the utm-parameters first?

So for example

https://www.test.org/?param=12345

should change to:

https://www.test.org/?utm_source=xxxx&utm_campaign=abc&param=12345

UPDATE:
It works like that:

(function() {
const params = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
const utm_params = [];
params.forEach(function(value, key) {
if (key.startsWith('utm_')) {
utm_params.push(key+'='+value)
}
})
utm_params_string = utm_params.join('&');
var urlArray = [];
let url = "";
if (!!utm_params_string) {
document.querySelectorAll('a[href]').forEach(function(ele, idx) {
url=ele.href;
urlArray=url.split("?");
ele.href = urlArray[0] + '?' + utm_params_string + '&' + urlArray[1];
});
}
})();

I took the examples of @khanhicetea and @dillansimmons above and made a hybrid version using URL and URLSearchParams classes for all of the heavy lifting. This will not work on older browsers.

This will propagate any query param starting with utm_ into all <a href="..." /> tags on the current page, taking care to follow the following rules:

• No other query params will be injected except ones starting with utm_
• Only links with the same exact domain name will have utm params injected
• If a link has existing UTM params already, this will skip those links and not clobber existing UTM params
• Existing query params in each link will be preserved

(function () {
    // use URLSerachParams to get strings <- does not work in Internet Explorer
    let deleteParams = [];
    const utmParamQueryString = new URLSearchParams(window.location.search);
    utmParamQueryString.forEach(function (value, key) {
        if (!key.startsWith("utm_")) deleteParams.push(key);
    });
    for (var key in deleteParams) utmParamQueryString.delete(key);
    if (utmParamQueryString) {
        // get all the links on the page
        document.querySelectorAll("a").forEach(function (item) {
            const checkUrl = new URL(item.href);
            // if the links hrefs are not navigating to the same domain, then skip processing them
            if (checkUrl.host === location.host) {
                let doNotProcess = false;
                const linkSearchParams = new URLSearchParams(checkUrl.search);
                linkSearchParams.forEach(function (value, key) {
                    if (key.startsWith("utm_")) doNotProcess = true;
                });
                if (doNotProcess) return;
                checkUrl.search = new URLSearchParams({
                    ...Object.fromEntries(utmParamQueryString),
                    ...Object.fromEntries(linkSearchParams),
                });
                item.href = checkUrl.href;
            }
        });
    }
})();

Hopefully this saves someone time in the future.

Thanks !
