Feature request

  • Hi,

    Great plugin!

    I’m very much looking forward to the A/B testing of link text. Hope that isn’t too far away ??

    Another feature I’d love to see is the ability to switch all links within a category to backup/ alternate affiliate links with one click. Let me explain why:

    We work with some affiliate networks and surprisingly often their tracking for one of their affiliate partners goes down. Let us say it is in the rental car business and all the links to a specific rental car company stops tracking. While they are fixing the problem, which usually takes days, we don’t earn any money.

    Our only option is to go through and change out all our affiliate links to another rental car company manually. And then change them back again once the problem has been fixed. If we could specify a backup affiliate link and switch between them on a category basis with one click it would save us a lot of trouble.

    This is actually a real scenario that we sadly have to deal with quite often.

    It would also give us a way to easily test wich car rental company converts better.

    Just a suggestion!

    Looking forward to the next version! ??

    Hi Espen,

    A/B testing is definitely coming to the plugin. There are a few things we need to take care of in our other plugins first but we’ll be focussing on Easy Affiliate Links soon!

    The backup link idea is interesting as well, I’ve added it to our todo list.

    Kind regards,
    Brecht

    Hi Brecht,

    Thanks for the reply!

    I have another feature request. Could you make it easier to copy the link from the Easy Affiliate popup box when writing a blog post? I can’t always use the shortcode. Sometimes I just need the link so that I can use it on an image or another element.

    Right now I can see the link but I can’t select it to copy it. One possibility would be a copy link to clipboard button or similar. Or just show the link in a way that is selectable.

    Really looking forward to that A/B testing functionality. I have a lot of tests waiting for that ??

    Best

    Hi there,

    I wanted to let you know that we just released Easy Affiliate Links 1.4 which includes a “copy shortlink to clipboard” button. We’re also going to focus on this plugin some more, so there should be more updates coming soon.
