In reply to: [Affiliates Manager] Plugin does not register at allBabaearly – it’s working for me on a fresh install of latest version of WP and latest version of plugin. Maybe one of your other plugins is causing a problem? Troubleshooting is often a long and painful process I know, but first of all try turning off all plugins and test the affiliate plugin. If works ok, turn each plugin back on one at a time and testing the aff sign up each time. If you do this, you’ll find the plugin causing the conflict (if it’s a plugin). Then you can either remove or substitute that plugin for another one that does the same thing. Report back here with your results.

In reply to: [Affiliates Manager] Tracking Affiliates from 'Site A' to checkout elsewhere?Would an admin kindly comment on this for me please?
I don’t want to waste my time testing this if you know of an obvious reason why this wouldn’t work? Just need your expert opinion… thx.

In reply to: [Affiliates Manager] Tracking Affiliates from 'Site A' to checkout elsewhere?I’m guessing the answer to my original question above is either not easy or impossible at the moment. So i’ve had a think about how it could be done myself, and want to ask if you think this would work…
The question: How do we make sure an affiliate gets credit for a sale if a visitor that lands on Site A, checks out and buys on Site D (where the checkout and aff program is hosted)?
How about this:
1) Setup a blank page on Site D called ‘redirect2siteA’ that simply redirects a visitor to Site A (either the homepage or a specific product page on Site A)
2) Affiliate signs up on Site D and gets their affiliate link.
3) If affiliate wants to promote products on Site A, they simply have their affiliate link point to the ‘redirect2siteA’ page on Side D.
I’m guessing as soon as that affiliate link is clicked, the visitor gets sent to Side D, which instantly records the referral, and then the visitor gets redirected immediately to Site A.
If that visitor then clicks a buy now button on Site A, they get sent to Site D to complete the purchase and download their product.
Side D remembers they were here before and who the affiliate was, and awards the affiliate their commission for the sale.
Would this work?
Would love your comments please, thank you!

In reply to: [Affiliates Manager] Referrer to appear on checkout page?Thank you both for your answers.
Yes, affmngr that is a way to do it, but it would be way more easier for an affiliate to just click their own link, go to the sellers checkout and look at the bottom of the page and see something like this:

This screenshot shows exactly what I mean: http://affiliates.sdsplans.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/affiliate_training.png
Would be really useful and very much appreciated if it could be added or an option to turn this feature on.
Cheers.
