HOW TO: Configure iDevAffiliate for WHMCS

[Webdomain.com]

We had some problems with the order process, namely a blank page was returned after step 5.

 

It seems there is a slighty error in the step-by-step provided by iDevdirect to integrate iDevaffiliate with WHMCS.

Hopefully and as always, Matt did a fantastic work to help us fixing this issue.

 

As long as it may help some others, below is the correct step-by-step to integrate WHMCS in iDevAffiliate:

 

1. Login to your WHMCS.

2. Click on General Configuration - Other

3. Tick the box labeled : Run Script on CheckOut.

4. Save that setting and edit the /includes/checkoutscript.php file. Add the following code to that file.

 

$idev_query = mysql_query("select amount from tblorders WHERE id='$orderid'"); 
$idev_query = mysql_fetch_array($idev_query);
$idev_saleamt = $idev_query['amount'];

$site_url = "http://www.yourdomain.com/affiliates/sale.php?idev_saleamt=$idev_saleamt&idev_ordernum=$orderid";

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $site_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100);
$result = curl_exec($ch); 
curl_close($ch);

 

Where "yourdomain.com" have to be replaced by your own and "idevaffiliate_path" by the path to your own idevaffiliate script.

 

After that, everything will work smoothly as it should.

Enjoy.

how do you deal with cancellations and such?

$idev_query = mysql_query("select amount from tblorders WHERE id='$orderid'"); 
$idev_query = mysql_fetch_array($idev_query); 
$idev_saleamt = $idev_query['amount']; 

$site_url = "http://www.yourdomain.com/affiliates/sale.php?idev_saleamt=$idev_saleamt&idev_ordernum=$orderid"; 

$ch = curl_init(); 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $site_url); 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); 
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 100); 
$result = curl_exec($ch); 
curl_close($ch);

 

We just have ...

$idev_saleamt = $amount;

$idev_ordernum = $orderid;

print "<img border=0 src=\"http://affiliates.othellotech.net/sale.php?idev_saleamt=$idev_saleamt&idev_ordernum=$idev_ordernum\" width=1 height=1 alt=\"affiliate-image\">";

Yes, that's what you will have, that is what iDevAffiliate have been giving out to people, and that will break the order process.
