Adblock restricts the Amazon Enhanced ad as the content is served directly from Amazon and gets recognized as an Ad. If you define product ads using the template feature of the plugin then they don’t get blocked by Adblock.

This error was resolved out in version 1.8.0 of the plugin. marking topic as resolved.

Marking thread as resolved as keys are now validating.

If you want to embed widgets you have already created on Amazon. You can grab the widget code from Amazon and past it into the html tab of the page editor. This will allow you to add widgets you’ve already created on the Amazon Affiliate website

Hi, I’m reviewing this issue now and hope to have an update by next week. sorry for long delay.

Amazon Widgets are supported by the Widget Source feature. Currently the China locale of the Affiliate program does not support Widget Source and as such the search widget is not available for China.

Hi, sorry I’ve been tied up with other matters and just now am starting to review issues/feature requests. I’ll review the multi-site configuration and see if there is anything that I can dig up.

Thanks for outlining this issue with the widget width. I’ll review Amazon’s settings and see if there are any other constraints.

Hi:

I’m in the process of reviewing the Widget code due to some discrepancies across different Amazon Locales. I’ll review this in the process and see if I can update the code to allow for targeted categories.

Hi, currently I haven’t added any statistics functionality to the plugin. I’ll add this above as a enhancement request and will keep it on the table for a future release.

Hi as outlined in the other forum posts there are a few ways you could make the ads align left.

Option 1 )

Wrap the short code in a DIV tag that has it’s style set to float:left. To do so insert the product ad into the content via the quick links or amazon tinymce button. After it is inserted switch to the HTML view and wrap the shortcode in the following code.

<div style="float:left;">[amazon-enhanced ...] ... [/amazon-enhanced]</div>

Option 2 )

Define a CSS Class that you use to float an object within your themes css. Apply this class to the ad using the container_class property as shown below (in this example the class defined is float-left).

[amazon_image id="B003P2WO5E" target="_blank" size="Medium" link="true" container="div" container_class="float-left" ]The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive)[/amazon_image]

Option 3)

Set the container_style property of the shortcode to apply the css style to the generated container object. I notice i didn’t add this property to the various ui screens and will do so for future release.

[amazon_image id="B003P2WO5E" target="_blank" size="Medium" link="true" container="div" container_style="float:left;" ]The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive)[/amazon_image]

Upon review it might be

Hi Jo what theme are you using?

The plugin currently uses a single affiliate tag per locale. I’ll add a request for future version to allow for explicit specification of associate id within widgets/shortcodes per locale so that users can overwrite if needed.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Hi, there are multiple ways to insert product links into your page/post from the WPAA plugin. When you use the Quick Links you should notice that some shortcode is added to your page content similar to [amazon_link ...]...[/amazon_link]. When you preview the page you should see the content displayed on the page.

Since Quick Links is functioning for you that means that the plugin has validated your AWS credentials and is able to search for products from the Amazon Product API. If you send the post/page content to [email protected] I can load it in a test environment and see if there is any issues within my environment.

Hi, just took a look and it appears that for the Amazon Japan Search Widget they have their search categories differently “Book” instead of “Books” and etc. I’m reviewing and hope to put a fix out soon.
