 * I haven’t been able to find any documentation on the Admin Localization Setting
   to view the website content with links localized to a specific Amazon Locale.
 * Any insight on how to use this would be very much appreciated.
 * Thanks

 * Hi, the purpose of the Admin Localization is so that when logged in as an admin
   you can view your website content as viewed by different locales. E.g. if you
   are from US locale and want to confirm that UK users see UK versions of the products
   you can switch the admin locale to UK and verify the content is for that locale.
 * There is one caveat with this and that is for some reason on some installations
   of WordPress user capabilities do not get initialized properly prior to plugins
   executing (details [here](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-amazon-associateauto-update-failure?replies=16)).
   In these cases the admin localization does not function as I put a check in to
   disable the code if the functions called don’t exist.

 * Thank you. I understand the purpose, just not sure how to actually view the content
   in another locale.
 * Once I set the local, I’ve tried to Preview the site, however, the locale is 
   not updated.
 * Thank you.

 * I have similar problem. Its not working of me .
 * AWS Access and Secret Keys are set. The account was created in us. When I select
   
   Enable Locale Viewing for Administrators: DE
 * I get warning: Quick Links and Product Searches are disabled. To enable please
   enter your valid AWS Access and Secret Keys
 * …. UPDATE
    Strange, but after I diactivated and activated “Enable Geo Localization?”
   its started working. Not sure what was the problem but it works now fine.
 * Great plugin, thank you

 * Here I’m again but now it does not work again. I get now in my Amazon web service
   panel.
 * Code: AccountLimitExceeded
    Message: Account limit of 2000 requests per hour 
   exceeded.
 * Any ideas why I can’t login anymore. There were hardly any 20 requests to amazon.
