Broken links in WooCommerce administration panels (=lots of extra work!)

When you generate a list of referrals at example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=affiliates-admin-referrals the system links up all the orders that have generated an affiliate referral.

This is GREAT because it means you can jump straight into the order, check the product, etc as you go about verifying all the affiliate commissions.

However, these links don’t work.

They generate a link like: example.com/?post_type=shop_order&p=840

The link they should generate is: example.com/post.php?post=840&action=edit

It seems a simple fix, and if this was fixed in the next update it would save me 30-120 minutes each month.

      Hi,
      You should not lose data, but always make a backup of both the files and the database before.
      Check that you have NOT marked the option “Delete all plugin data on deactivation” in Affiliates->options
      cheers

    I have the pro version 2.3.0 of the plugin and not the light.
    I dont think the 2.4.0 version fixes the problem so i have not yet upgraded.

    Hi,
    Thanks, we’ll take a look.
    You can check “Expand details” in the filter list of Affiliates->Referrals, for each referral you have a link that works properly (+Data->Order).
    cheers
