I'm trying to display personalized content on a page IF I have clicked on a specific link on a specific page. My thought was to have a parameter on the link such as:
<a href="Product-Page/?home=1">Go to product page</a>
Then, on "Product Page", hopefully using the rules engine, check if the parameter home exists in the query string. If so, then display a piece of content.
I can't seem to figure out the best way to do this with Sitecore 7.5. Maybe this is the wrong approach.
Out of the box in Sitecore 7.5 there is no rule for using the querystring. but you can easily create a rule and use with the personalize feature from Sitecore.
