Hi Kento,
I just wanted to get a confirmation that this plugin will work together ok with your WP Ecommerce integration plugin. I’m using the WPEC one now, but will need this one to track referrals to Email Sign Ups. Thanks Alot!
Yes they will work together, the integrations are independent. Let me know when you’ve tried it.
Hey Sir! Works great! Doing exactly what I need! Sending you something via paypal!
Hey thanks
So I’m wondering if there is a way to turn off the referrals going to “Direct”? In other words, if someone arrives at my site, but didn’t use an affiliate’s special url, I would rather it not track anything. Possible or no? I’m just worried about too many of these being added to the database. I hope that makes sense. Please let me know if I need to clarify. Thanks as always!
You can turn that option off, it’s this one in Affiliates > Options : Store direct referrals
Geez! Right in front of me. Thanks!
Hi Kento,
Can the Affiliate be included in the form notification email? The referral url is there but this doesn’t work if someone leaves the site or clicks around the site and is referred internally.
Thanks
You can include the affiliate in the default notification email that Affiliates Pro provides. It also records a referral for the affiliate when the form is submitted after the visitor has been referred by the affiliate.
I can not adjust the price for each form, help!
Can you please give an example / screenshot of the form and explain what exactly you would like to achieve?
must i buy affiliate pro before i can buy the contact form 7 integration?
if i use the free affiliate, can i work with the contact form 7 integration?
You just need to get the integration pack with Pro included.
Hi Kento
I want to use som diferent amount fore diferents forms provided by the form’s base-amount field. But can not find out how to do it. It shall be hide for visitors. (And generate a comission amount that in affiliates report).
You would add a hidden field named
base-amounton each form and enable the option Form amount (base) in Affiliates > Contact Form 7.To make the guestion more clear: With the “amount” in forms means the commission to affiliate. (Just contact forms).
If you want to grant a specific amount then you would provide that through a field named
amounton each form and assign it a value corresponding to the referral amount.I tried this and make a hidden form field with the plugin, like this: [hidden base-amount-154 "150"]
But the form don not send any amount value (“150″ to the referreals result page. (Shows only 0.00 in report).
It works with settings “Default referral calculation value” (same amount for all forms) but not from the specifik form. So I gues I do someting wrong with the formfield creating. There are no “Amount” pree defined fields. I have tried “Text field” with no results from submission in reports.
There are two problems with that, first there is no hidden field in Contact Form 7 (but see my note below) and then you have named the field base-amount-154, the name must be base-amount.
I’ll better give a working example:
Your name : [text* your-name]<br/><div style="display:none;">
[text base-amount "50"]
[text currency "USD"]
</div>
[submit "Send"]
So instead of using a real hidden field, it hides the fields from view
Note that Contact Form 7 still doesn’t support real hidden fields (unless you use another plugin like Contact Form 7 Modules but that doesn’t work with this – yes I tested it).
Thank you Kento for quick respons and useful code!
It work perfect. With the Settings; Default referral calculation to “referral rate” and Default referral calculation value “1.0″ – to give the same comission amount I set hidden in a specifik form. Shows fine in my admin and the affiliates personal reports.
(And of course Contact form 7 settings “Form amount (base)” enabled).
Thanks, glad to hear it’s working for you now
The Detailed referral overview looks great and what I need. But I am not sure how to make the attribut: “show_post” to show title and link to the page with my contactform.
At the moment It shows only title and link to the same page where it is. Same link to every refferal line.
The Post column on the Referrals admin page links to the page where the referrals are created, but what do you mean by the show_post attribute?
Sorry. I just rambles there about the attribute. It can only be true ore false, as I understand now.
I use this shortcode:[affiliates_affiliate_stats type="stats-referrals" data="message" show_pending="true" show_post="true" show_amount="false"/]
The problem is that the referral page do not shows in the post column. Only the same post-url as the refferal report. See the dump:
http://media.imobiler.se/2012/12/rapporer_dump2.jpg
That’s correct, this shows the page where the referral was created.
But the problem is that it do not shows the url where referral was created. Only url for the affiliates report-page.
I see, I’ve just tested it creating a test account on the site. Would you mind granting access to the back end to have a look?
Are there any differents in functions, stat, etc, if i use the refferal url: mysite.com?affiliate=1 or the pretty mysite.com/affiliate/1
Not really.
How do you access the stored data from the contact 7 forms?
If you just want to see it, you can check the options in the Referrals screen to expand the data as the field values are stored and displayed there. Is that what you are looking for?
how we integrate your affilate plugin with our proprietary lead forms?
There is an example of how to record referrals in the API section of the documentation. Also there is an example widget implemented that you could use to derive the code for your forms.
if order via Contact Form 7 or on form order which already Integration with affiliates Pro plugin, on members who have signed up pogram affiliate, whether will get a commission ?
thanks
Hi,
yes, a form send by Contact Form 7 create a referral. You can setup in Affiliates->Contact Form 7 menu.
cheers
I’m testing my form and for some reason my test account is receiving two emails…
#1 – is from the contact form email address with Notice as the subject
#2 – is from wordpress with the information I set up on the contact form 7
How do I remove the first ‘notice’ email so the affiliate will only receive one notification email?
Hi,
you can try disable “Notify the site admin when a new affiliate is registered” in Affiliates->Options
cheers
Thanks for the idea but that option is not currently checked.
The extra email is not going to the admin, both are going to the affiliate…?
Hi,
sorry, you must uncheck “Enable notifications” in Affiliates->Notifications
cheers
