Thanks very much Amin, that did the trick!

No, the profile number is ok. The prepared url DOES work correctly without this line:

&idev_commission=0.25 * “.$sale_amount.”;

so I thought it must be in the syntax or the placing of those “”.

If I make it a fixed number it works OK too:

&idev_commission=2.50;

Ok,

I got it to work with the Generic Tracking Pixel Method, but with Amin007’s code above.

Oh yes, and by changing mysite.com in the above Prepared URL with my actual site name (blush).

SO now I need to get fancy and pass on a commission % based on the sales amount in the prepared URL. I used this code but that did not work. What syntax should I use?

This was not working for me:

$prepared_url = “http://www.xxx.com/idevaffiliate/sale.php?profile=72198&idev_saleamt=”.$sale_amount.”&idev_ordernum=”.$order_num.”&ip_address=”.$ip.”&idev_option_1=”.$customer_name”&idev_commission=0.25 * “.$sale_amount.”;

Thanks,

William

Sorry, I must be missing a step somewhere.

What integration method should I choose on the iDev side? I cannot see WP eStore in the

looong list, choosing Paypal BuyNow & Subscriptions requires a php page, and the

only other option I see is Generic Tracking Pixel; which I saw you addressed in another post as not working.

Thanks for your insights.

Regards,

William

Hi,

I too bought iDevAffiliate to enable my Affiliates to have 1 admin centre across

my multiple websites. Do I understand correctly that I need to modify the WP eStore php files (mentioned above) on all the domains I am tracking sales/leads for?

(logic says yes). If so, can I modify 1 lot and then copy it across or are php files website specific. I am not much of a programmer so not sure if php files contain certain values that are updated.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks Amin007, all resolved! I must have fixed it when I changed the paypal settings, but then I kept on thinking it was still failing as I indeed had not ticked the Enable Sandbox field. In the meantime an order for the membership came thru and it all worked!

Thanks again -brilliant product!

Hi,

thanks – I got the update today, and installed it on one of my new membership sites, and I am now faced with with another problem : IPN failure.

I have read all the related posts and went thru debug and paypal sandbox. All my settings in my paypal account are as per your suggestions (I had to change a few settings) but still the ipn_handle_debug shows failure.

[04/18/2010 10:03 AM] – FAILURE :IPN validation failed.

[04/18/2010 10:03 AM] – SUCCESS :Paypal class finished.

But here is the kicker: whilst I am setting up this new site I am continuing to get sales from my other existing sites, same paypal account (before and after I changed the paypal settings to your suggested settings). The payments are coming in (thru eStore) on those sites and the IPN there shows:

[04/18/2010 10:09 AM] – SUCCESS :Connection to http://www.paypal.com successfuly completed.

[04/18/2010 10:09 AM] – SUCCESS :IPN successfully verified.

The only thing I can say is that the (working) site has eStore 2.6.7 whilst my new site is on the latest eStore 3.0.4

Help! What am I overlooking?

Thanks,

William

This maybe helpful too: read this thread and my answers: Aweber Email Parser or WordPress Issue?

https://support.tipsandtricks-hq.com/forums/topic/aweber-email-parser-or-wordpress-issue

[william]

I solved it!

Somehow gmail is overwriting the email address that I have specified in the “From Email Address” field in the eStore settings menu with the gmail address. So I changed the parser in aWeber to my gmail address and all is flowing smoothly now and the correct email is added to my AR list.

Thanks!

PS I am using the “Configure SMTP Settings” plugin from http://coffee2code.com/ to manage the WordPress mailer.

Hi,

I am coming down with this problem too. Was working perfectly for about 4 weeks then aweber suddenly did not get updated with new customers, nor did the seller (and presumably) the buyer email go out either. This was since about Dec 1, and I am on Hostgator so presumably something happened there…

I changed the SMPT to my gmail account and all is flowing well…. except now my gmail account email gets subscribed to aweber instead of the buyer.

I tried to implement Startech’s solution – although the “eStore Settings Notification email address” says clearly “This is the email address where the seller will be notified of product sales”. Not sure why you would put in the aweber list name?

Anyway it did not work for me.

Anyone with any idea’s?

Thanks,

William
