    Hello,

    I'm looking to send out a marketing email with a link to my site and a discount code. How do I go about automatically applying this code when the site is visited via the link in the email?

    Thanks,
    Dan

    You can do it with cookies I think, when the user has visited your site using one of your discount codes drop a cookie into their browser with info about the discount code.

    on the link pass some querystring that will help you detect the visitor and save some marker info on a session cookie. and then behind the scene, you can apply the coupon automatically.
