E-Commerce Widget and Affiliates problem

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   This has come to our attention by an affiliate and I don't know how to fix it.
Before I installed the e-commerce widget the affiliates were able to create link to products with there affiliate id embedded.  Now they can't do that any longer.  All the get it the darn widget and it does not change.  No matter what product they choose or browser.  I want to get rid of the widget and get it back to were it was.  I deleted the hidden widget category and what was inside of it.  No fix here.  How do I fix this whole problem?

	Just noticed that there is the words create link, but it does not appear clickable (no highlight, or underline). That's were the confusion comes to play, because it is clickable. Once clicked it generates the darn links. Now I still like to get rid of the widget on that page. Katharina

	Go to: Marketing > Generate Ecommerce Widget Select: Show Affiliate Links = No Regarding the button. I think there was a css style issue, but it was fixed in v3.5. In v3.5 the "Generate Links" button is very clear and visible when the widget is enabled.

	Thanks for the help. Haven't upgraded to 3.5 yet, due to being in the Christmas sales season. Will do that this month. Katharina
