Cannot create affiliate through [affiliates_registration]

This doesn’t work for either when a username has been registered in wordpress beforehand, or not. When clicking Sign Up the user is redirected to a 404 error page.

You can try this at bitfactor.io/affiliates

    Hi Mathew,

    I think it’s better for me to have a look at your dashboard.
    Please enable debugging and send me temp admin access to your live or staging site. You can send the credentials to george@itthinx.com.

    To enable debugging, edit your wp-config.php file and replace the following line:
    define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false );
    with these lines:

    define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true );
    define(‘WP_DEBUG_LOG’, true );
    define(‘WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY’, false );
    after that, any errors will be added to a file named debug.log under your wp-content folder.

    Cheers,
    George

    Here is a list of activated plugins. It is purposely very minimal:

    Affiliates Export
    Affiliates Formidable
    Affiliates Pro
    Analytify – Google Analytics Dashboard
    Formidable Forms
    Genesis Dambuster
    Itthinx Updates
    Search Engine Visibility

    None of these plugins handle registrations or logins, so I’m at a loss as to why it isn’t working.

    Hi George,
    Here is the code for the affiliates page – it is exactly as generated by the Affiliates Pro plugin.

    [affiliates_is_not_affiliate]
    Please log in to access the affiliate area.
    [affiliates_login_redirect]
    If you are not an affiliate, you can join the affiliate program here:
    [affiliates_registration]
    [/affiliates_is_not_affiliate]

    [affiliates_is_affiliate]
    Welcome to your affiliate area. Here you can find information about your affiliate link and earnings.
    Affiliate Information
    [affiliates_fields]
    Affiliate link
    Your affiliate URL:
    [affiliates_url]
    Use this code to embed your affiliate link:
    <a href="[affiliates_url]">Affiliate link</a>
    Tip: You should change the text Affiliate link to something more attractive.

    Hi Mathew,

    I tried to register on your affiliate area page but no luck. Also, after registering, I tried to login unsuccessfully and got an error message of “too many failed login attempts”.

    Please check your affiliate area page in case you used the redirect attribute for [affiliates_registration] shortcode and it does actually try to redirect to a non-existing page.
    Also, regarding my second observation, have a look at your plugins list for any plugins that handle registrations and logins. The error I mentioned is not produced by the default login process in WP and I think this is causing the error and the issue.

    Please let me know if the above worked for you.

    Kind regards,
    George
