snap-affiliates?

masb:

This sounds great! I have one question though... if someone signs up as an affiliate, with this module, can they sign someone up and get commissions off of what that person sells. I'm sorry if I didn't explain that very well, I don't know the lingo. :P
So if I'm an affiliate, and sign you sign up to be an affiliate, do I get a portion of your earnings?

The answer, no. What you're asking for is a type of a pyramid scheme (legal one mind you). That is not currently possible with this module.

Hi, are anyone knows someone who makes custom plagin for ZC 1.3.8. ??? :blush:

thelawman:

did you insert the Snap Affiliate tables using the included snap.sql file?

I'm trying to do this... could you spell it out for me?

I don't know what to do with the snap.sql file

Where does it get uploaded to?
What is the exact syntax to enter in the ADMIN > TOOLS > Install SQL Patches screen?

I keep getting error messages

And, am I supposed to use the zc_installer folder? what is that?:frusty:

You do not do anything with the zc_installer folder. That folder is for installing ZenCart. You copy and paste the contents of the snap.sql file into the text field at ADMIN > TOOLS > Install SQL Patches screen.

Low and behold, this one didn't even take much though...

Make the following change in /admin/referrers.php

BEFORE:

 ($referrers[$selected] == $referrer) ? "" : zen_href_link(FILENAME_REFERRERS, "referrer=" . $referrer['customers_id'], 'NONSSL') );

> 
> AFTER:
> 
> ```php
	 ($referrers[$selected] == $referrer) ? "" : zen_href_link(FILENAME_REFERRERS, "referrer=" . $referrer['customers_id'] . "&offset=" . $_GET['offset'] . "&limit=" . $_GET['limit'], 'NONSSL') );

Let me know how this does for ya.

I can't find this line of code in ADMIN/referrers.php. What line # is it?

:no:

And, should the admin_level be changed to 0 in this file too if we're experiencing email alerts going out as the 2nd Admin profile?

THANK YOU! :yes:

I had the same issue with the email error.

Try editing the includes/modules/pages/referrer_signup/header.php file line 56 from 'admin_level = 1' to 'admin_level = 0' or you can do what I did and create a second admin user called Affiliate Manager with a new email address (I used [email protected]) and left the code as is at 'Admin_Level = 1 '

The pay button is for a manual pay system, i.e you send them a check or PayPal, etc. and then click the button to change the status.

For me... when an email is sent to the affiliate all it says is

Do you also have to change admin_level to 0 in ADMIN/referrers.php? :unsure:

You can change this if you need to. It's only necessary for some sort of "from" for the mailer. ((Now I see why this was using my owner email.)) Expect this to change in the next version or in the very worst case, the following subsequent version to some sort of "select from these emails" in the Admin Panel under Configuration.

Also PM so we can set up a time or that you can provide me details so I figure out what's wrong here... Are you using my version, the original, or the new version recently posted?

Can you tell me how to change the look of the referrer pages (terms, signup, etc)? There weren't any css files in the mod and I'd like to have a slightly different look than the normal account pages.

Thanks!!

You would directly edit the template files in the respective template directory. If you want to make CSS style changes, you can do them inline or add them to the stylesheet.css file.

You might be messing with an older version of the file. If you using an older version, just download and overwrite. Just the file logic changed, not the database (at least in my edition).

im having issues with affiliate links.
When the are in the browser window they have a white screen. Currently using ZC 1.39

Which version of the mod are you using?

Can you check your cache folder and bring up the .log file that's related? To get this, try to visit one of the links and note the exact time you get the white screen. Then go into your FTP account and retrieve that message. Paste the message back here.

Thanks for developing this MOD! :smile:

I am planning on installing this for a store and wondered if the Affiliate places the order in their own account, will they get a commission on that order ... or do they have to click through on their own aff. link?

For example, we have sales reps in the field who can take an order in person, but would like to enter the order in over the website - obviously with a SHIP TO address of their client. We'd like them to be able to "be in control" of the order and essentially their own commission.

Also, I am assuming that there is now a way that deleted or cancelled orders are not accumulation commissions.

And finally, it's not imperative, but if it is not already integrated, you may want to add it... being able to assign an existing order to an affiliate.

Thanks again :)

I'll answer each of thiese:

They have to click on their own affiliate link. It's a downfall and I'm working on ways for setting an option to disallow or allow this.

Not as of yet, this is being worked on and is sadly something that has be addresed.

You know, while I messing with Super Orders and the regular orders.php file to show the affiliate ID, this crossed my mind. It'll take some time but I can get this but I'm not quite set up to do anything regarding this software at least until late June.

+1 for click tracking. Right now all we can really see is which referrers need to get paid and how much. More stats would be delicious including:
total clickthroughs, conversions, avg. transaction and return traffic
thanks though it's been a great plugin.

Total Clickthroughs, avg. transaction per click through I can do. Conversions and Return traffic... that's a bit over my head. Unless you mean Return traffic from previous referrals?

I am having the same problems
and tested it and the refer doesn't get the credit for the sale.

and I am using a SEO module.

Are you using some sort of SEO module? There are known problems with making this work. Can you contact me via PM with your address?

Can you check to see if the Affiliate Tracking cookie is being installed?

Sorry for disappearing retched.

Even the clickthrough totals would be awesome. The main thing we want to see is how many people came to cart via their affiliate link regardless if they bought anything or not.
