Force localisation of link to one country?

Hi,

I’ve not done this for a while, but you could try adding the following options (I used to use them for testing):

[amazon template=Image&asin=B00ID2HJJM&default_cc=us&localise=0]

i.e. Disable localisation & set the default country to the US. You might also need to add ‘home_cc=us‘.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly Paul. I tried your suggestion (and various combinations) and came up blank:

If I remove “localise=0” it does pull data from Amazon US, but the generated link is still to my Default Country, United Kingdom. If you can’t think of anything else I can set my Default Country to US.

Just tried it and you are right it does not work as expected. I think the new argument parser is sensitive to the order of the arguments. Try putting the ‘default_cc=us’ at the beginning of the string, e.g.:

[amazon default_cc=us&template=Image&asin=B00ID2HJJM&localise=0]

This works well for me.

For info:

If you enable ‘Create Search Links’ then if the product is not available it should create a link searching for the keywords defined in ‘Default Search String’.

So in your case if ‘Default Search String’ contains ‘%TITLE%’ then the plugin will create a link to the search page for “Samsung UN65HU8550 65-Inch 4K Ultra HD 120Hz 3D Smart LED HDTV” in the correct locale.

Cheers,

Cheers Paul this works like a treat!

I have enabled ‘Create Search Links’, but in my testing it only works if the ASIN matches an entry in the Amazon store given in the Default Country.

Eg B00ID2HJJM only exists in the US store, so if Default Country is the US, that works fine.

But for a UK product like B00FRK8GFO, if Default Country is the US, Search Links doesn’t work….

BUT adding “default_cc=uk” fixes that!!!

Brilliant!!! I’m trying to get others on to the Amazon Link cause this is the best plugin out there!
