I’d prefer to tackle this myself. Do you know of any good starting references to use for creating an addon plugin?

Also, what do I need to know to create the “addon” link between my new plugin and the eMember plugin?

Thanks

[Robert]

Not sure I’d call myself a developer. I have modified a number of plugins, but never created one or created and addon one. Would be happy to try if you could point me to a good reference/give me some kind of example to get me started.

The affiliate id would be set to the member. When a member of a specific level logs in, I want the affiliate id set to that person (the system creates a member and an affiliate with the same id).

So for example, I have a membership of level 2 called consultant. If a consultant logs in I want to set the affiliate id to them. These are people who are placing orders for other people, so I want them to get commissions. I do this by setting their affiliate id. Right now, I have the set affiliate form and they have to go in and type it in themselves, I’d like to automate it.

Does this make more sense?

[Robert]

Also, on a related note, is there a way to programmatically “set” the affiliate without having to use the affiliate form.

I know you can display the form and the user can set it, but I want to automatically set the affiliate for members that log in (I have the system set to create an affiliate with the same id when the member of a certain level is created). So when that member logs in, I want the affiliate to be set so their purchases are recorded to that affiliate.

Thanks. That was what I was looking for. I am having trouble getting the “details” shortcode to work.

This shortcode just shows the shortcode text on my web page.

[wp_affiliate_referrer_details info=”firstname”]

I thought it would show the affiliate info. Where is this in the code?

[Robert]

Thanks for the reply…I was up all night researching and came to that exact conclusion. Took a while to get the AJAX part, but finally got it. I created my own php file calling the plugin db functions. Works like a charm.

I’ve been thinking about this…seems to me that I should be able to call the code that fires the dynamic coupon via javascript, then return that code and then send it to aweber.

Just need to know what php function I should call via javascript to start the process (and how to return the generated code).

Thanks,

Robert

[Robert]

Thanks Keith. I did see that and have d/l it to take a look. Still hoping for a better solution though.

Thanks again,

Robert

Any updates to the start date for coupons?

Also, any feedback on my question concerning gift card functionality?

[Robert]

Works great, thanks!

[Robert]

Ok, will give it a try

[Robert]

Is there a way to also pass the quantity in a text link?

[Robert]

Forgot to ask, what might the timeline be for the “start date” to be added?

Also, any ideas on the gift card functionality?

[Robert]

That might be a great solution. The problem is I have a quantity and variation for the button that needs to be sent. If I could dynamically send that info it would work.

Otherwise, what I need is to use code to “press” the hidden add to cart button after processing my form.

[Robert]

Thanks, that’s great news.

I have seen a few threads that relate to gift card functionality, but nothing solid. Are there any plans in the works to add gift card functionality? Basically tying the input of information like sender name and email, recipient name and email, message to an add to cart button. I think there was talk of an add on that may relate to this. I’d like to offer gift cards so am also interested in this.

Thanks.
