CAMPAIGNS

- By clicks
- By impressions
- By days
- All 3 options (whichever comes first)

CONFIGURATION:

If your site is behind a reverse proxy (e.g. Varnish) the unique impressions
count will be incorrect because it will record the IP address of the proxy
rather than the client. Make sure you set variables 'reverse_proxy' and
'reverse_proxy_addresses' to suit your infrastructure.
