    Hi there,

    I can’t get it to cloak any links…
    I’ve activated it and set my own custom permalink.

    Could you help out?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi

    Did you activate the plugin?

    After you activated the plugin, did you update your Permalinks here WordPress Admin Area > Settings > Permalinks?

    Thanks

    Hi Eric,

    Yes i did all that…

    I do see that your links are being rewritten to something like this:

    https://printq.nl//bekijken/11648/

    But for some reason that’s just redirecting to your homepage.

    Did you add affiliate links to your products?

    Are all of your plugins up to date?

    Does your theme support the latest version of WooCommerce?

    Ah, i added a / before ‘bekijken’ which made it crash. Right now it works.

    It does update my Woocommerce links, but not other links on the page. Is this how it’s supposed to work?

    Cool, glad you got it working.

    Yes, it only modifies external/affiliate WooCommerce product links. No other links on your site will be affected.

    I do have some other external links on my site which it doesn’t modify though, check the button in the top: ‘Top 10 printers’ for example.

    That must be because whatever is generating the links for those products has bypassed the WooCommerce API to get the link and has hardcoded the value there.

    What method did you use to display those products?

    Well they are just hardcoded buttons and hardcoded products indeed, i use a plugin called Visual Composer to build my website. So hardcoded links are not going to change? 🙁

    Plugin Author datafeedr

    (@datafeedrcom)

    Correct. Our plugin hooks into the WooCommerce’s functionality and modifies the affiliate links dynamically. It has no way of modifying hardcoded affiliate links because those links aren’t getting processed by WooCommerce’s API.

    Is it possible for you to use a WooCommerce shortcode in VC?
