Hi,
Is there a tutorial or somewhere that i can get information about how to set up an affiliate program? i can create an affiliate but i cant get the cart to generate a URL for each affiliate.
Thanks
Marie

I'm not sure this will help but:
I set ours up manually for our advertisers by:
1. Create an affiliate.
2 Give the affiliate an ID (basically a number, I started with 1).
3. Then I click Save Changes.
4. Then I go back and edit it again. I copy the sample url and send it to the advertiser to use as a link.
5. After the advertiser posts the link url I go to view page source on their web site to make sure they didn't screw it up (if it isn't hidden someplace).
There appears to be a mechanism for providing affiliates access to it but I haven't used it.
One thing to be careful of. Do not click on the affiliate link from your computer. It will set a cookie on your pc and give you false positives every time you enter an order from your pc. Of course you could also delete the cookie but don't forget.
