I need to make an affiliate link for each individual product. I’ve searched for ages and read the documentation and looked on the forum, but can’t find the answer. If anyone could help that would be great.Thanks

Perfect!
Think I’ve got it, thanks – it just clicked and its really simple isn’t it… thanks again.
OK thanks, but if I just put the second option in that will just be one link won’t it, not one for each product? I’d like to create all the separate links myself, then let the affiliate know what they are. There’s only going to be the one affiliate. just wondering you don’t have experts who I can pay a small fee to to generate the affiliate links do you at all?
All shortcodes in general look like this:
[this_is_a_shortcode]
or like this:
[this_is_a_shortcode]some content[/this_is_a_shortcode].
The links i provided give you the necessary details and options on how to use the shortcodes. If though you are in doubt, don’t hesitate to ask for help here or create a new topic.
For your case, i think that the second and fourth options are the best.
You should put them in the affiliate area page, so once an affiliate logs in, they will see the links they need to use on their sites.
Also, add your account as affiliate( if haven’t already ) and visit the Affiliate Area page, you will see what your affiliates will see. You can either add yourself manually as described here, or through the affiliates area page.
Kind regards,

Hi George, thanks so much for this. I’m having a go now, but I’m a beginner and learning as I go along, and at the moment shortcodes and things are a bit difficult to get my head round still. So if I could just clarify, in the affiliate edit page, I put a shortcode as you’ve said for each product? And then I let the affiliate know what they are? So they can embed them in their site, so when someone clicks on one of my products they’re advertising on their site it will take them through to that product on my site?
Thanks
Hi Yvonne,
There are several ways you can accomplish this by using shortcodes in your Affiliate Area page. I’ve linked them to the documentation page, where you can find detailed information on each of them.
You can add the affiliate url parameter manually at the end of each product link.
You can use this shortcode
[affiliates_url]http://www.example.com/product_page[/affiliates_url], which will append the id of the logged affiliate.
You can let your affiliates create an affiliate link for all your site’s urls by adding the shortcode
[affiliates_generate_url]. This will generate a form where the affiliate adds a link and gets the affiliate link.
You can also give your affiliates the html link to add it straight away to their sites with this shortcode [affiliates_affiliate_link url="http://www.example.com/products/" render="code" /].
Kind regards,
George
