Gravity Forms only creates refferal with direct Link

Hi George,
we has this issue already last June. You gave me a patch, and advices to add some code to my functions.php and it was solved.
But now the same issue appears.
See https://www.itthinx.com/topic/gravity-forms-only-creates-refferal-with-direct-link-2/ (with the last solution that worked) and https://www.itthinx.com/topic/gravity-forms-only-creates-refferal-with-direct-link/
I have WordPress installed in a subdirectory.
It´s the same on my staging site. When I go to https://demo.funkzeugnis.info/a-test/?partner=4 where the order form is, referrals are created. But when the visitor is coming again or from the general link https://demo.funkzeugnis.info/partner=4 and navigating to the page above, no refferals are created. By the way, EM which I also use on this site works!
I have Affiliates Pro V3.0.0 and Affiliates Gravity Forms Integration V2.0.0 running. Maybe the updates changed something?
I tried to remove the code in my functions.php, this made no changes.
You have admin access to my staging site https://demo.funkzeugnis.info/ if You need. Please just renew Your password.Debug mode is on.
Many thanks!

Kind regards
Rudolf

  1. Hi Rudolf,

    Can you please send me a copy of your .htaccess file?
    There is probably a wrong redirect that results in storing cookies in wrong paths, first the cookie is stored with a path like https://demo.funkzeugnis.info (the Site URL) but then the system looks for stored cookies in https://demo.funkzeugnis.info/wordpress which is the WordPress URL, resulting in no available cookies.

    Cheers,
    George

  2. Hi George,

    refferals are created only when coming directly to the page, using the affiliate link.https://demo.funkzeugnis.info/test-page/?partner=7
    But if You come again and don´t add the /?partner=7 to the url. no referal is created.

    Best regards

  3. Hi Rudolf,

    I had performed tests on your staging site and everything seems to work properly. FYI, i created a new page( Test page) and used GF form id 22, with the proper settings for affiliates and after submitting the form i got a referral recorded for the affiliate.

    Please have a look on your live site, in case you use different settings. Can you please mention the settings for affiliates you used, for the form you came up with the issue?

    Kind regards,
    George
