I just tested it, don’t see this issue in my site.

I mean their Affiliate ID. The value of the “AID” column from the affiliate plugin.

Here is an example snippet of code

$aid_value = "2";//TODO set the value of the affiliate ID
$db1 = new WPAM_Data_DataAccess();
$affiliateRepos1 = $db1->getAffiliateRepository();
$affiliate = $affiliateRepos1->loadBy(array('affiliateId' => $aid_value, 'status' => 'active'));
if ( $affiliate === NULL ) {  //affiliate with this ID does not exist

}
else
{
    $default_creative_id = get_option(WPAM_PluginConfig::$DefaultCreativeId);
    if(!empty($default_creative_id))
    {
        $creative = $db1->getCreativesRepository()->load($default_creative_id);
        $linkBuilder = new WPAM_Tracking_TrackingLinkBuilder($affiliate, $creative);
        $strRefKey = $linkBuilder->getTrackingKey()->pack();
        
        //TODO - do something with the $strRefKey value
    }
}

I will work on improving that creative preview area. I have an idea of what I want to do.

If I add the ability to delete a commission then that will cover it I think. I don’t want to start putting every commission into a pending state because that adds another level of manual work for the admin to do everyday.

Lot of people actually buy for their clients using their affiliate link. So more site admins actually want to allow this behavior which is why it is permitted. Remember, you are only giving him a commission after you got the payment for the item. But I do agree that there should be an option to change this behavior so admin who do not want this behavior can disable it. I will look into adding an option for it in the settings.

You can get the refkey using their ID or email address but not the other way around.

By “Lead” Do you mean the commissions? Commissions are only given after a transaction. You can also manually apply a correction by entering a negative amount from the admin dashboard for that affiliate in question. Do you want to be able to delete a commission value? Currently the premium option is for support only. The software is free.

It uses a smaller image for the preview so if someone uses a big banner ad image, it doesn’t take a lot of space. I plan to show the full size banner ad image in a lightbox. That will allow the affiliate to see the full image before they put it on their website.

This has been fixed.

I don’t think you need to do that with affiliate manager plugin. Because when the free user pays, the commission will be tracked (given that user was referred by an affiliate). It all happens as part of the standard setup.

Have you set en_GB as the language for your WordPress install?

You don’t need to create affiliate ads for each affiliate. You can create only one creative and all of your affiliates will be able to use that.

How to Add Creatives or Ads For Your Affiliates

Those names in the list are clickable. Once you click, it will show you the preview with the image. I do like what you suggested though so we will think about adding a preview in the main list (before you click and see the details).

We have now made it so you can use the Affiliate’s ID as the refkey value. So all you have to do is use the Affiliate’s ID or their email address as the code itself.

Lets say the affiliate’s ID is 2 (you can see this value in the admin dashboard). So, now you can make the following referral URL that will give commission to this affiliate:

http://localhost:81/wp/wp7?wpam_refkey=2

or lets say the affiliate’s email address is [email protected] then you can use the following as the referral URL also:

http://localhost:81/wp/[email protected]

[admin]

Is the “Automatically approve a new affiliate” option turned on in the settings? If you want to manually approve affiliates then turn off that option.

[admin]

We will look into adding the enhancements you suggested.

The affiliate area is accessible when you are logged in as an affiliate. You (the site admin) can view affiliate’s details from the backend.

The paid membership pro integration doesn’t need any settings. As soon as you activate that addon, the membership payment via paid membership pro will be tracked. It will use the commission rate set in the affiliate’s profile to calculate the commission.

[admin]

So it was just a matter of the text/link color not being visible?
