setConversionAttributionFirstReferrer not working

Support & Bugs

Hi,

I’m currently using the line below to set the conversion attribution to the first referrer and it doesn’t seem to change anything. I am using piwik on our Magento site.

All the conversions that have multiple visits with different campaigns are attributed to the last visit’s campaign name.

My tracking code is below:

    <script type="text/javascript">
        //<![CDATA[
        var _paq = _paq || [];
        (function(){ 
			var u="//www.mywebsite.com/piwik/";
		    _paq.push(['setSiteId', 1]);
            _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
            _paq.push(['setConversionAttributionFirstReferrer', true]);
            _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
            _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
            var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; g.type='text/javascript'; g.defer=true; g.async=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js';
            s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s); })();
    </script>
    <noscript><p><img src="//www.mywebsite.com/piwik/piwik.php?idsite=1" style="border:0" alt="" /></p></noscript>
    <!-- END PIWIK TRACKING CODE -->

I apologize I misunderstood the setConversionAttributionFirstReferrer option. This option uses the first referrer in the last visit to attribute the conversion. What I actually need is attribute the conversion to the first referrer in the first visit instead. Is this possible in the most current version? Thank you.
