Where to post shortcode

Hi there,
I have the shortcode for affiliates by username ready to go as i’ve installed the plugin, however I have no idea where to actually place this shortcode? When the affiliate logs in, it is still showing the ID and not the username. Please advise where this can be placed so that affiliates can send links with their usernames attached.

    Hi there,
    thanks very much for getting back to me. I have tried these combinations and the LINK in the dashboard still shows the ID number. For some reason the affiliate by username link is at the bottom of the page which is what this code is doing but the link itself (which you can copy to clipboard) stays with the ID. I want the link in the copy area to show the username.

      Hi Michael,

      Good afternoon and happy new week!

      For now, the plugin only provides the [affiliates_by_username] shortcode that converts affiliate links by substituting the affiliate ID with the username.

      However, you are very correct, to mention the link in the affiliates overview section should change as well to contain the username when Affiliates by Username is activated. We have taken note of this request and will consider it as a feature request. Once, implemented, I would notify you.

      Once again thank you for choosing our Affiliates system and for asking your question.

      I remain available if you have any further inquiries!

      STAY SAFE and be awesome!
      Best,
      Eugen.

    Hi Michael,

    Happy new week! I trust you are well and safe!

    Thank you so much for using our Affiliates system and for asking your question.

    With regards to your inquiry, the best way would be add the either one of the following to your Affiliates Area page:

    [affiliates_is_affiliate]
    [affiliates_by_username][affiliates_url][/affiliates_by_username]
    [/affiliates_is_affiliate]

    OR

    [affiliates_is_affiliate]
    [affiliates_by_username][affiliates_affiliate_link][/affiliates_by_username]
    [/affiliates_is_affiliate]

    You can read more here:
    * https://docs.itthinx.com/document/affiliates-by-username/
    * Conditionally render something only to affiliates that are logged in.

    I remain available if you have any further inquiries.

    I wish you a very peaceful and productive week ahead!

    STAY SAFE and be awesome!
    Best,
    Eugen.
