    OK. I will wait – hopefully. 🙂

    For adminisration: It should be there an Drop-Down-Field to choose the affiliate partner and also an option for exporting the added coupons.

    We’ve doing our first campaign with rublys (https://www.rublys.com/) and so I searched for a solution for coupons.

    Hi Kento. Could it be possible to generate 1.000 unique codes in one time. Maybe, if you are doing an upgrade of the plugin? If there never will be such a solution, yes pleas refund the buying.

    We are very happy with WooCommerce and with your Affiliates plugin. It’s the first time now, something isn’t possible. 🙁

      Ok, let me check if that’s something we could add within the next days, it makes sense to have it based on what you have explained anyhow so it would be a good addition.

    Hi Kento. Easy to explain. I don’t want to pay money for orders when the customer is copying the coupon code and share it with his friends. The campaign partner want 20.000 unique codes from me, every coupon with one-time-usage. The partner will get money for every used coupons-code and with just one code, he is getting provision also for shared coupon codes.

    I need both possibilities – one code (then I’m happy with sharing) and sometimes many codes (when I don’t want to have coupon sharing).

    And I have to send a list of all generated unique coupon-codes to the campaign partner. The campaign partner will add to every customer an individual coupon-code and so he will get controll. For him it’s important that only their customers can have an discount with coupon.

      Thanks for explaining that Dietmar, for the “shared” code the plugin covers it but in the case where you really want e.g. 20.000 individual coupons assigned to one affiliate and also the need to export this as a list it isn’t suitable. Shall we proceed to refund this then?

    OK. In this case this was a mistake to buy this extension. How can I delete this buying. I need a plugin to add a lot of coupons for one affiliate-partner. This could be 1.000 coupons or 10.000 coupons.

    How can I do this cancellation? I hoped to have a solution in this plugin Add-On.

      Hi Dietmar,

      If the extension isn’t suitable we can of course issue a refund for it. Anyway, I would be interested to know why you want to generate e.g. 1000 coupons for one single affiliate for his marketing campaign. If you want to track referrals from this affiliate back to the coupon usage, then you just need one single coupon code which the affiliate can use in his campaign. And if you want to limit the use of the coupon to 1000, then this is simply done with a standard coupon setting. Would you mind explaining? Maybe it’s something we can consider to add to this extension if there is a use case with a wider application. In any case, if you want the order refunded, please email us at support at itthinx dot com with the order number.

      Cheers

    Hi Dietmar,

    You can choose a generic prefix like aff. After generating coupons for your affiliates, the affiliate ID will be automatically appended. So, the coupon for each affiliate will be aff1 for affiliate with ID 1, aff2 for affiliate with ID 2 etc. Also, these coupons will be attributed automatically to their respective affiliates.
    Please note, as i mentioned in my previous comment, that Affiliates Coupons generates one coupon per affiliate. This is the plugin’s main function. If you want to generate more than one coupon per affiliate, you should repeat the coupon generator each time with a different prefix. Still though, each time coupons will be generated for each affiliate, you can’t exclude an affiliate or include only one affiliate.
    All your coupons can be exported from the default WP export tool, in the Dashboard under Tools>Export. There you can choose to export only coupons.

    Cheers

    I’m using this “http://www.itthinx.com/shop/affiliates-coupons/”.

    Example:
    Partner has ID 7.

    So the prefix should be like “aff7-“. Is this correct? Next, I have to “1000” and so I’m getting 1000 times a coupon code with “aff7-XXX”, counting up in numbering? Right?

    If yes, this is a way but not a nice and prefessional solution, really. Normaly there should be a pull-down menu to choose the affiliate-partner, the coupon codes are appropriate for.

    And then next – Can I export the generated coupons as a couponcode-list als .csv or .txt-file? I have to send the generated coupons to the partner for his marketing campaign.

    Thanks for any help George. 🙂

    Hi Dietmar,

    What tool do you use to generate these coupons?

    The affiliate ID can be found under Affiliates>Manage Affiliates.
    If you want to generate a coupon per affiliate and also automatically generate a coupon for new affiliate that registers, then you should use Affiliates Coupons premium plugin. With this plugin all coupons can have a prefix you choose followed by the affiliate id. But it generates a coupon per affiliate.

    Kind regards,
    George
