PayPal WP Affiliate Wishlist Integration

[txblond]

Hi,

I have OptimizePress installed on my website where I make sales for product a. Sales page is [www.raisingrabbitsessentials.com/buy]

In a sub-folder of this site [http://www.raisingrabbitsessentials.com/members/wordpress/] I have OptimizePress with Wishlist installed and have recently added WP Affiliate to this as well to run my affiliate program.

I use two payment options; a single PayPal payment or 6 months of payments via PayPal.

I’ve tried both methods listed here (http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpress-affiliate/plain-paypal-button-and-affiliate-plugin-integration-168) to integrate WP Affiliate into my site and everything is installed and affiliates can register. But no clicks or sales are being shown for affiliates.

Most recently I tried Option 2 with PHP (after installing the recommended PHP plugin) but nothing seems to be passing.

Here is the code for the PayPal button

<form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr&#8221; method=”post”><input type=”hidden” name=”cmd” value=”_s-xclick” /><span style=”font-family: Georgia, ‘Times New Roman’, ‘Bitstream Charter’, Times, serif; font-size: x-small;”><span style=”line-height: 19px;”>

<input type=”hidden” name=”hosted_button_id” value=”89SWWTHSN9UA4″ />

<input type=”image” name=”submit” src=”http://www.raisingrabbitsessentials.com/wp-content/themes/OptimizePress/images/large-signupnow.png&#8221; alt=”Raising Rabbits Essentials” />

<img src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif&#8221; alt=”” width=”1″ height=”1″ border=”0″ />

<input name=”notify_url” type=”hidden” value=”http://www.raisingrabbitsessentials.com/members/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wp-affiliate-platform/api/ipn_handler.php&#8221; />

<input name=”custom” type=”hidden” value=”<?php echo $_COOKIE; ?>” />

</span></span></form>

Any help is great appreciated!

Looks like you have two different installs of WordPress on the same domain which can complicate things a little if you are not careful. Please read the following post that will explain a few things:

https://support.tipsandtricks-hq.com/forums/topic/wp-multisite-install-and-plugin-behavior

With that said, Here is my questions for you:

1) Which WordPress install will receive the referral traffic on your site?

2) Is that PayPal button configured to send the IPN to WishList members plugin?

If you had an one time payment button, the setup would be easier. Since you have a subscription/recurring payment button, the setup is a little complex so I need to get a good idea of your setup before I can help you.

Hi

I think maybe I was trying to over-complicate things with the two different sites. It’s not crucial that the members of the site get an automatic affiliate signup so I’m going to try to make this easier.

I’ve installed the affiliate plugin on the main site where the product is sold [http://www.raisingrabbitsessentials.com/buy] which has OptimizePress on it. The button on that page is optimized to send the IPN to Wishlist and then redirects to the registration page for the ecourse.

I’ve tried installing the PHP plugin & doing the setup as mentioned above, but it’s not working. Clearly I must be missing a step.

Thanks!

Just wanted to post an update.

I put in the PayPal PDT token in the Settings and it seems to have made a difference. In the setup instructions, it seemed rather ambiguous as to whether this was needed for all format or not. But I figured I would give it a try. I can even see the info from last Friday where we were testing it.

So I can see affiliate click referrals now in the system. But what doesn’t seem to work is credit for the payment plan I have setup (basically a 6 month subscription in PayPal). I’d like for people to receive commission every month for each subscription payment as it’s made.

I can actually see that the affiliate gets credit for the sale, but there is a 0 under commission instead of 8.50 or so that they should be getting.

Thanks!

I am going to take a look at the settings of the affiliate plugin on your site. I sent you an email to get access to the site.
