Is there a way to add link to the affiliate platform navigation to take people back to the main site. I have had several people tell me they don’t like the fact that when they log in to the affiliate program they can’t go back to the main website.
for example
user goes to bob.com and clicks on affiliate link and goes to affiliate section
bob.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/affiliates/login.php but now has no way to go back to bob.com unless they use the back button on the browser which does not work if you log in. So need navigation that allows links back to bob.com. I hard coded it for now but would love an option to do this.
If you use option 2 explained on this page you won’t have this issue:

If you prefer to use option 1 then you can simply make the “Home” link in the affiliate plugin link to your main site.
I have the same issue with integrating option 1. I think making the HOME link in the affiliate plugin as link to my main site is not a good idea. If i do this then, where is my affiliate HOME page then then?
Is there a way to build a 2nd menu to mimic our main website menu so?
The simple and easy solution is to use option 2 of the affiliate area as you get to use the standard WordPress nav menu:

Switching from option 1 to option 2 is super easy (both of them will be functional on your site anyway).
Alternatively, you can customize the nav menu of the affiliate area of option 1. If you are good with PHP I can tell you which file to modify.
