    Hi
    Am having problems with an affiliate page i set up. Have got all the images of the banners in place and the code beneath each banner to which an affiliate can place his affiliate link into and then paste the code to his site. The problem comes when i tested this code. I copied it and pasted it into the text editor on my wp page its not saving as html. The quotation mark (“) is changing from what looks like a straight one to an italic ons and then the link doesnt work. If i put the link in a text editor and change the italic looking quotation marks back to straight ones as they look in html then the link works again. Basically i need the link to stay as it is when transfered to an affiliates site. Would really appreciate some help with this am quite new to html so am really struggling.

    Thanks in advance Adrian

    The code that you’re providing should not be pasted into their site using the Visual editor, they would need to use the text editor.

    Hi
    Yes thats correct. But when i update my affiliate page with the code on it it changes it. So when an affiliate copies whats on the page after they are copying a different code so it doesnt work

    Ahhh, sorry. Try switching to code editor (fixing the quotes) and then wrapping your code in either <pre> or <code> tags.
