I noticed there is this “Affiliate Plugin” shows up under the “Must-Use” plugin section, but I never installed anything that is related to affiliate before. I am not sure if the IT person that I hired before installed it without my concern (I’ve sent a message to ask but he didn’t answer back anymore), or if it is automatically installed by other plugins.

I want to remove it if it is not mandatory to have on my woocommerce site. But how to remove it? There is no deactivate button. It only says: “Files in the?/wp-content/mu-plugins?directory are executed automatically..”

I am using Hostinger as my web host and found this file on File Manager –> public_html folder –> wp-content –? mu-plugins –> hostinger-affiliate-links.php. Can I delete this file? Will the Affiliate Plugin be removed then?

I want to ask your opinion first before deleting anything that might cause problems because I don’t understand this technical thing.

Thank you so much!

I reached out months ago about a setting that keeps “untoggling” itself in the affiliate dashboard. I was told they were aware of the issue & they had an update about to roll out that would fix it. That was MONTHS ago, but nothing was fixed. It’s kind of a big deal because it prevents affiliates from being able to get repeat commissions from a customer. I allow that in my affiliate program, so my customers have an incentive to keep promoting my products to their lists. And, it’s an integrity issue if I’m not doing what I said.

I also made them aware that in the affiliate dashboard there is a misspelling of the word “manual” (As in, how the customer will be paid). It just looks bad for the affiliates to see that kind of thing in the dashboard that represents my business. Again, I was told it was an issue they were aware of and it would also be fixed in the update.

Both issues, still exist.

I’ve also encountered another significant issue, which I didn’t bother bringing to the developers, since it was after-the-fact and they didn’t ever fix the above issues. With manual payments, you have to update when the payable has been processed to the affiliate. However, I had an issue with one commission that I had closed out, reappearing later in the payables as unpaid. I ended up paying out an affiliate twice for a $35.00 commission because I just thought it was a new commission & didn’t realize it was an error caused by the plugin. I only realized when the same commission popped up AGAIN in the payables that it was inaccurate. I am out the $35 & as a small business that matters to me.

I would soooo have loved to not have these issues. I was 100% rooting for the plugin. I really don’t want the headache of researching other plugins and moving my affiliates over, but with these issues and that they weren’t fixed after being told they would be, I’m not going to gamble on the premium version.

The link looks something like: example.com/ref/234242

When people click it, it will go to example.com. I want it to go to example.com/products/ or something like that. Is there a hook I can use to accomplish this?

I reached out to woocommerce support, but, haven’t heard anything back. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for creating this plugin; it looks like it will be a great way for sites to hook their AWIN site codes in easily

I’ve just activated this plugin on a new site (current stable version of WordPress 5.6); and receive the following Notice level error from PHP:

Notice: wp_enqueue_script was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the wp_enqueue_scripts, admin_enqueue_scripts, or login_enqueue_scripts hooks. This notice was triggered by the convert-a-link handle. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 3.3.0.) in /wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 5229

…while the script still appears in the source code, and I can see the AWIN variable being generated; it’s clagging up the debugging logs.

The issue appears to be a result of calling wp_enqueue_scripts procedurally, outside of a hooked function in plugins/convert-a-link/convert-a-link.php line 29; and could be resolved by changing:

$publisherId = get_option('cal_publisherId');
wp_enqueue_script('convert-a-link', 'https://www.dwin2.com/pub.'. $publisherId .'.min.js', array(), false, true);

to

function convert_a_link_scripts() {
    $publisherId = get_option('cal_publisherId');
    wp_enqueue_script('convert-a-link', 'https://www.dwin2.com/pub.'. $publisherId .'.min.js', array(), false, true);
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts','convert_a_link_scripts');

Thanks in advance
