    Hi Rudolf,

    I’ve created a patch for your case until the plugin is updated. I sent it to you by email. The file should be placed under /public_html/your_wordpress_folder/wp-content/plugins/affiliates-pro/lib/core/. Once you upload the file wp-init.php in that path, it will ask you to replace the old file. You should click yes to replace it with my patched wp-init.php file.

    After that, you should place the following snippet in your functions.php file of your active theme.

    add_filter( 'affiliates_parse_request_sitecookiepath', 'gt_affiliates_parse_request_sitecookiepath' );
    function gt_affiliates_parse_request_sitecookiepath( $site_cookie_path ) {
    $site_cookie_path = SITECOOKIEPATH;
    if ( get_option( 'siteurl' ) !== get_option( 'home' ) ) {
    $site_cookie_path = '/';
    }
    return $site_cookie_path;
    }

    This issue occurs when the WordPress installation is in a subdirectory and results in the cookies being wrongly stored. This happens because a WordPress installation in a subdirectory redirects only the frontpage to the domain without the subdirectory whereas the wp-admin is only accessible through the full path. ie The site is accessible through http://www.example.com but wp-admin is accessible only through http://www.example.com/subdirectory/wp-admin.

    For any questions, you can reply here.

    Cheers,
    George
