customize affiliate commission email

[dlusionz]

Hi, I was hoping to be able to modify the text in the email which informs affiliates that they have gained a comission, but I was hoping to be able to do so dynamically, for example including the product name price and basically the same information that the seller gets,

The reasoning is because I would like my revenue sharing author affiliates to know the information of the purchase but I dont really want them to have access to the WP dashboard in order to do so, is this possible?

thanks in advance

Search for the following line of code in the “wp_aff_includes.php” file:

wp_aff_send_commission_notification($wp_aff_affiliates_db->email);

The call to this function sends that notification email with the default message. You can delete this line and write some custom code that sends the email with the information that you want to include in the email. This function has some of the necessary info (eg. Sale price, item id etc)

“You can delete this line and write some custom code that sends the email with the information that you want to include in the email.”

Well…

Could we have an example?

I just want the affiliate to be informed of the amount of the commission directly in the mail, nothing more.

You can now customize this email from the following interface of the plugin:

WP Affiliate Platform -> Settings -> Email Settings -> Affiliate Commission Notification Email Settings

I will add the option to include the commission amount in that email too. So you don’t need to do the tweak in general. I will give you an update when I am done (should be done in a few days).

Thanks for the update, I’ll check that later this week then.

Any news on this ?

Thanks

I have completed the work for this. Please load new copies of the affiliate plugin and the eStore plugin (if you are using it). Then you will get this new email merge fields.

Re-install or Load a Fresh Copy of the Plugin(s)

Use the following email tag for adding commission amount and sale amount in the commission notification email:

{commission_amount} - this tag will show the commission amount from the transaction

{sale_amount} - this tag will show the sale amount from the transaction

Here is a list of all the email tags that you can use for the commission notification email:

Great!

Many thanks, upgrading right now

And one last request, is there a way for the admin to have more info about the sales in the email he receives?

Right now I only receive:

“This is an auto-generated email letting you know that one of your affiliates has earned a commission. You can log into your WordPress admin dashboard and get more details about this transaction.”

I receive it even when the sale was generated directly from my website (Affiliate ID: undefined).

Would that be possible to only receive it when the sale is coming from an affiliate, and display the ID/Name… of the affiliate and the amount of the commission?

Right now this email is quite useless, as I receive it for every single sale without any substantial info in it…

Many thanks

The admin can see the full details of all sales and commissions data from the WP admin dashboard (with details) so I didn’t add much info in the email. I will look into adding some more details in the admin notification email too.

Hi !

If there is any update, this would be appreciated

[admin]

yeah we have added a new settings option to allow the customization of the admin email notification for when an affiliate receives a commission. I have sent you an update via email.

Are there tags that I can use in the commission email that would let me display the name or email of the purchaser? The sales we do are very personal, the affiliate knows personally each buyer and it would be great to know WHO bought the product.

Are there tags I can use for this?

Thanks!

Not all e-commerce solutions will provide the name and email from the transaction. So it is not possible to do this for all the integration. Which e-commerce plugin/solution are you using with this affiliate plugin?
