Hi,

I am using affiliate pro, and formidable form Version 5.0.05 to register affiliates.

When the checkbox for “Register an Affiliate Account ” is CHECKED under forms and actions, the following issues are occurring for logged in users

a. The form does not show for logged in users.
b. even the preview of the form also not available.

BUT when “Register an Affiliate Account ” is UNCHECKED” everything shows up normal.

For non logged in user, the form shows up and registration happens successfully.

Please help regarding this issue.

    Hi Parthasarathy,

    You can modify the Export feature of Totals if you use the filter hooks
    – affiliates_totals_export_file_headings
    – affiliates_totals_export_file_line
    as described in the dedicated section in our documentation – https://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates-pro/api/filters/
    The extra fields you use in your registration form are stored as usermeta and can be fetched from the database using the WP API function get_user_meta(). Once you add a new column using the first hook, you can put the extra fields used in the $line[‘suffix’] parameter of the second hook.

    The mail functionality can also be added in the same filter hook callback function, so that when you Export the message will be sent to your affiliates.

    All of the above require you to have extended knowledge of PHP and the WordPress API.

    Kind regards,
    George

    Hi Parthasarathy,

    Yes that should happen from the moment that the user is registered and is an active affiliate, it is correct not to show the registration form again. Otherwise the user would try to register again and get an error message.

    FYI, when a visitor submits a registration form, a user and affiliate record are created and the new user is mapped to the affiliate record.

    Kind regards,
    George

      Hi George,

      Thank you so much for explaining.

      I want to take this opportunity for help about 2 issues.

      Requesting you to please give the direct solution in terms php code which I can place in code snippets.

      1. I need to have some of the fields of registration form in the Export total file (seriously this functionality ie choosing of custom fields must be made available during export total file, I’m capturing bank account details of the applicant in custom fields needed in export file to process payment)

      2. Email the totals data automatically to the respective affiliate during export/closing totals.(like a CSV/XLS file about their referal activities and total for the same duration selected during export)

      Kindly help me for the solutions, these are much needed to run my affiliate program efficiently.

      Best Regards
      Parthasarathy

    Hi Parthasarathy,

    Thanks for choosing Affiliates Pro as your affiliate marketing tool on your WordPress-powered site, we appreciate it.

    I have done a few tests with the latest WP, Affiliates Pro, Affiliates Formidable integration and Formidable Forms Pro 5.0.01.
    The form appears properly for visitors and existing users but disappears for existing users that have been affiliates and now are deleted but trying to re-register as affiliates again.

    Can you please share your findings regarding this specific case I described? On your site does it happen for all existing users?

    Kind regards,
    George

      Hi George,

      I have check again with the scenario you mentioned which resulted as below

      True: The form appears properly for visitors and existing users but disappears for existing users that have been affiliates and now are deleted but trying to re-register as affiliates again.
      (When I removed the deleted affiliates from the database table. the form was showing up)

      *I want to point out that for affiliates which are “registered and active” the form does not show up.
      Should this happen?
