Adobe Forms Central integration with WP affiliate

[kworrell]

We are using Pay for Lead and would like to integrate WP Affiliate plugin to capture a lead when a student registers for a class / program after coming from an affiliates website. The registration form is an Adobe FormsCentral form that is embedded into a WP page on our website.

We have several Adobe Forms being used to capture prospective student information in the website….and would like to auto-capture as a lead when they come in from one of our affiliates websites. We do not pay the affiliate fee (award) until the student has completed registration for a class and paid.

So need a way to capture the lead anytime an Adobe FormsCentral Form is filled out from someone that comes to our site from one of our affiliates.

Example: [http://www.naturalcookery.com/registration/]

Example of embedded form in WP page:

<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://formscentral.acrobat.com/Clients/Current/FormsCentral/htmlClient/scripts/adobe.form.embed.min.js”></script&gt;

<script type=”text/javascript”>

var fefR5zd6NL_2dJ_2alrC_2dvk_2dlsw = new ADOBEFORMS.EmbedForm({formId:”efR5zd6NL-J*lrC-vk-lsw”, width:700, transparent:false});

fefR5zd6NL_2dJ_2alrC_2dvk_2dlsw.display();

</script>

I don’t think you actually need to capture the lead in this case. You simply want to award commission when affiliates send users to your site and they pay for a membership.

If you just integrate the affiliate plugin with a supported payment system then you should be good to go.

When your affiliates send a user to any of your WordPress pages, the plugin will track it. When this user pays for the membership, the plugin will award commission (given you are using one of the integration options listed here)

I do see the click through trail when I run a test coming through a banner on an affiliates website. However, I’m still not sure how to capture the student’s name/info on a Lead transaction associated back to the affiliate. I can see how to do this using a Contact Form 7 or Gravity form, however, since we are using Adobe Forms I’m not quite sure how to integrate it to capture the info.

With Adobe Forms Central, the form actually is executed from the Adobe Forms Central website and information on the students registration captured there. If they elect to pay by paypal, then the call out to Paypal is from the Adobe Forms Central site as well. Other forms of payment include by mail, credit card over the phone, etc.

We do not want to pay the commission out to the affiliate unless the student completes the registration and until after payment has been received…..so we were thinking the Lead program would be the best approach.

We also have created a drop down list of affiliates that the student can choose from when registering….we capture that on the form and it is retained along with the other student info in the Adobe Central Form database on the Adobe server.

Worst case is that I create a manual Lead transaction based on the email notification…but was would like to automate it if possible.
