coolcl Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 There are loads of sites that have osC Affiliate working - but they use version 2.5a Vger I have solved the login issue. It was coming from an html_output.php mod, killing the session ID. A good programmer would have thought of that right away, (I guest) but I am not. Now I need to solve the banner issue who seems to be a more common problem. Thanks for your help Vger, CL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help Vger, CL I am not too familiar with any of the new updates to oscaffiliate but on the older versions there was a problem with the URL paths for the banners. Does the URL for the banners show up as HTTP or HTTPS? Quote Upon receiving fixes and advice, too many people don't bother to post updates informing the forum of how it went. Until of course they need help again on other issues and they come running back! Why receive the information you require in good faith for free, only to then have the attitude to ignore the people who gave it to you? There's no harm in saying, 'Thanks, it worked'. On the contrary, it creates a better atmosphere. CHOOCH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcl Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 (edited) I am not too familiar with any of the new updates to oscaffiliate but on the older versions there was a problem with the URL paths for the banners. Does the URL for the banners show up as HTTP or HTTPS? Hi, It shows up as HTTP, <a href="http://www.mysite.com/catalog/product_info.php?ref=16&products_id=118&affiliate_banner_id=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.mysite.com/catalog/affiliate_show_banner.php?ref=16&affiliate_pbanner_id=118" border="0" alt="Aromatized Vinegar"></a> The link works but not the image.

chooch Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I have just created an affiliate account and clicked the banners link - the banners show up. I then used the html code and inserted it in a blank page and the banner showed up. Furthermore when I clicked the link your website opened up... remind me again what trouble the banners are giving you?

joelm Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 Hello. I was looking for something as simple as this: 1) I want to know where the customers that ordered came from. 2) I want to put a link like this: http://mystore.com/catalog?&affiliate=1 so I can trace the affiliate 1 to a store that I know what it is 3) When the customer cames from that link... I would like to store the affiliate where he came... into the order. Basically this is all I need. No need the control of prices and comissions but if it cames as an extra, I don't mind. Any help?

♥Vger Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 osC Affiliate is pretty much as simple as it gets when it comes to being able to track click-thru's for the purpose of recording sales generated by affiliates. Vger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPLewis Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 How would one go about adding an extra field to the banner admin for the ALT text? I'd like to name banners things like banner1.jpg, banner2.jpg, etc... but have the ALT text be "Visit AcmeWidgets.com"... Is that a major task...?
