direct affiliate linking

[panacheweb]

at the moment the affiliate link only works with * and goes to the main page.

 

I am wondering how much more coding or transfer of code it would be to add that info into the order.php page..

 

OR..

 

have the abiltiy for * to have a direct link to items that have an affiliate price in them.

 

example. domain.com/whmcs/*?aff=001&step=2&pid=1

 

where the info from step=2&pid=1 gets transfered over to the order form.

 

how much more coding would this be to do this?

If you can figure out how, I am sure others here would love to know

Not a lot. The * file is not encrypted so you can do changes like this if you want to.

Thanks for starting to supply it as a non-encrypted file. I didn't even realize it was no longer encrypted

I am programming this, and once I have it done I will post it for the community.

I for one look forward to it

ok here is the code as I have coded it, although I would love to see Matt add this into this next release:

 

<?php

define("CLIENTAREA",true);

include("dbconnect.php");
include("includes/functions.php");

if (isset($_GET["aff"])) {
$aff = $_GET["aff"];
$step = $_GET["step"];
$pid = $_GET["pid"];
$gid = $_GET["gid"];
$aff = sanitize($aff);
$query = "UPDATE tblaffiliates SET visitors=visitors+1 WHERE id='$aff'";
$result=mysql_query($query);
setcookie("WHMCSAffiliateID", $aff, time()+90*60*24*30);
}

header("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently");

if ($_GET["aff"] == NULL) {
header("Location: ".$CONFIG["Domain"]."/order".".php");
} elseif ($_GET["step"] == 2) {
header("Location: ".$CONFIG["Domain"]."/order".".php"."?step=$step&pid=$pid");
} elseif ($_GET["gid"] == $gid){
header("Location: ".$CONFIG["Domain"]."/order".".php"."?gid=$gid");
} else {
header("Location: ".$CONFIG["Domain"]."/order".".php");
}

?>

 

hope this works for all of you, as this is what I needed for my website and affiliate program for how I was going to design it.
