The per-product commission setting unfortunately does not override the per-affiliate commission setting. Sales of non-commissionable items are resulting in a commission showing in the affiliate’s dashboard and the commission notification email being sent.
I did some tweaking and testing and found the following (note: the per-product commission rates were set correctly at 5 for the commissionable item and 0 for the non-commissionable item):
– Setting the per-affiliate commission rate to 0 resulted in commissions not being awarded when they should be. The transaction showed and the notification was sent, but the commission awarded showed as 0.
– I am now able for some reason to remove the per-affiliate commission rate setting altogether so that field is blank, but removing it resulted in commissions not being awarded when they should be. The transaction showed and the notification was sent, but the commission awarded showed as 0.
So it looks like I will need to send them a list of their transactions so they can see which transactions that they received a notification of and that show in their dashboard were actually NOT commissionable. I could delete out the non-commissionable transactions as they happen, but prefer the transparency of their being able to see the data for themselves.
I will be testing to see if removing the default commission rate setting in the general Affiliate plugin settings means that any new affiliates added will work properly, so the problem will at least be limited only to the existing affiliates.
If you have any suggestions, I would love a fix, but I am assuming there probably isn’t one. I wish I had never changed the per-affiliate commission rate setting as it was working correctly before I did.
Just wanted to let you know, might want to incorporate that into the documentation someplace.
splashmediaMemberThanks – I sent in the info. I do have the anchor option enabled. Please let me know what you find.
splashmediaMemberSure – It’s in coming soon mode. First login in here:

splashmediaMemberThanks – it was a plugin conflict with this plugin:

Once I converted the eStore pages from widgetized areas to normal pages, everything worked fine.
Thanks for your help.
splashmediaMemberThanks. The second post was helpful. However, I already have the “Allow Shopping Cart Anchor” checked. I do not see #wp_cart_anchor being appended to the URL after adding to cart.
The code I am using for the products is:
[wp_eStore_category_products_fancy id=1 style=1]
the cart is in a widget area, using this code:
[wp_eStore_cart]
