all affiliate links go to 404 page not found

Posted in

Hi,

The affiliate links used to work but now they are not.

We have Affiliate Usernames; these don’t work which was possible as we’ve had issues with it before but now even the ‘ugly’ url isn’t working.

It seems like it can only work with the /?=partners setup.

Also, is there a way to test if an affiliate link is working?

    That appears to have done it. I switched to kinoki saved it tested it worked. Changed it back to “mystore” then saved again and it now works with that name too. Hmmm.. Thanks,

      Hi,
      sometimes it’s a cache problem or conflict with another page slug.
      cheers

    Nope did not resolve mine. I also have affiliates-by-name installed to. My affiliate urls look like this http://www.mydomain.com/mystore/affiliate_name. I am using the pretty option and with redirect checked or unchecked it still doesn’t work. My permalinks are not set to default either. Any thoughts?

    Hi,

    Thanks for your response however that didn’t resolve the issue.

      Maybe there is a conflict with the Affiliate URL parameter name, please try with a freak word (for example: kinoki) n Affiliates->Options.
      cheers

    Hi,
    please try selecting “Redirect” in Affiliates->Options.
    cheers
