Snap Affiliates v2.0 for v1.5.0 and later

BuddyS:

WOW - Must be something wrong! Down loaded snap_affiliates-3.0.3, extracted, and installed. Are there changes I need to make??????? No Affiliate information as far as terms and conditions and signup form...... Must have missed something! Tried more then once and the same outcome....:blink::blush::shocking::wacko:

Do you mean the pages weren't 'created' or the pages are there but no textual content?

@BuddyS, what is your base Zen Cart version for the install? Did you follow the installation instructions? Have you changed any of the SNAP-related configuration settings (as indicate in the readme)?

Or what she said :wink:

1.5.4 and no changes - didnt see any reqyured

yes followed instructions

So, you installed SNAP using the default (not suggested, per the readme) configuration values and you don't see the referrer_signup link when you log into a test-customer account on your site?

I've just submitted v3.0.4 of SNAP Affiliates to the Plugins for review. While this version does not directly support Zen Cart 1.5.5, I've reduced the number of core-/template-override files modified and ensured that all changes are properly marked (and numbered) so that it's possible to merge those files with their Zen Cart 1.5.5 counterparts more easily.

The following changes are included:

• CHANGE: Documentation/uninstall restructuring; check the /docs/snap_affiliates folder for these files.
• CHANGE: Remove full incorporation of the "OSH - Updated By" plugin from the admin's Customers->Orders handling, in preparation for a Zen Cart 1.5.5 plugin update.
• CHANGE: Properly mark all template-override file changes to identify the SNAP updates.
• CHANGE: Move all SNAP-specific template files into the template_default folder; allows easier reuse on multiple templates.
• BUGFIX: Correct misspelling on referrer_main page.
  Given the changes introduced in Zen Cart 1.5.5, the next release of SNAP Affiliates will be specific to that Zen Cart release -- otherwise, the SNAP installation will get quite muddied.

v3.0.4 is now available for download.

Hi,

great work, module sounds very nice to me

However, is this version possible for use with Zen Cart 1.5.5a?

Cheers

It's quite possible, you'll just need to merge the plugin's marked core- and template-file changes into your store's Zen Cart 1.5.5a file-set.

Not sure what that means but it sounds too complicated to me :)

DUDE, awesome! Your addon is GOLD! I got it working in 1.5.5a like a charm. I have attached modified the merged orders.php for you, in case you are thinking about making an official version for 1.5.5a of this module.

Cheers

Thanks, D.C, for the report that you got Snap Affiliates working on 1.5.5a!

I am running 1.5.5a

How can I change where it says Referrer Program to Affiliate Program? There are a few places.....like when you go to "my account" it says Referrer_Main_Title - REFERRER_ORDER_PAYMENT etc. can I change that to Affiliate instead of Referrer?

sorry, I can't edit or remove my question......I got it though. I do have something I can't figure out.
Under the payment type drop down there is only Check/money order there......how can I change that to just paypal? it doesnt even show that as an option.

Thanks for a great plugin

To add PayPal as a payment method, you'll need to change Configuration->Affiliate Program->Enable PayPal Commission Payment Method to Yes (the default's No). There's currently no built-in way to disable the check/moneyorder payment method.

Ahhh,.....thanks for pointing that out! I should have found that.

THANK You -

I installed this with no problems, and the Configuration section is set up the way I want it. But I replied 'True' to having a link appear in the Information sidebox, and no link appeared. This could possibly be because I've added the extra pages add-on (and then added another one manually)? I can add the affiliate link manually too, if that's necessary, but would appreciate help with the files I'll need to change.

You just missed a merge for /includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/information.php. Add the following code fragment in the position that you want the affiliates' link:

//-bof-snap_affiliates-lat9  *** 1 of 1 ***
  if (SNAP_INFORMATION_SIDEBOX === 'true') {
    $information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_REFERRER_SIGNUP, '', 'SSL'). '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_REFERRER_TERMS . '</a>';
  }
//-eof-snap_affiliates-lat9  *** 1 of 1 ***

Thanks, that did it. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what to put in 'define_referral_terms' and 'define_referral_tools' but I'll get there.
