Hello. Wanted to let you know that have added the option to select how many links you want to be displayed in the admin page.

I have also added the search feature in the list with future improvements.

Thank you. contact [at] autoaffiliatelinks [dot[ com or use the contact form on our website autoaffiliatelinks.com

Hello. Auto Affiliate Links hooks on the_content filter. So, if the post content is displayed with shordcodes or with other template functions, it will not work.

Adding a filter when shortcodes are displayed will probably mess with a lot of other stuff, as shortcodes are usually used to display scripts or specific parts of content that I dont think Auto Affiliate Links should mess with.

Theoretically, I can add a filter to do_shortcode_tag hook, and check for a specific parameter that should have been previously given to the shortcode, but that will add an unnecesary check for every shortcode output.

If you are writing your own shortcode functions that display the content, you can pass the content trough wpaal_add_affiliate_links function, by sending the content as the only parameter. The function will return the content with the links inside, but it will only work if all the checked settings are right, for example, if it is in the main loop of the content output, if the page where it is used is a post page, and the custom post type is checked in settings.

Hello. Thank you for your suggestion. I will consider adding it in a future release.

Hello. Thank you for using Auto Affiliate Links. Until few weeks ago, all links were displayed in a single page, but I added pagination because it was requested.

I will publish an update soon that will include an option to select how many links you want to be displayed on each page, and I think this will work out.

Searching for links it also a good option that I hope will be included in a future major release.

Thank you for your feedback. I will stylish the pagination so it will show fewer page numbers. . Will let you know after update.

Hello. Wanted to let you know that I have added pagination functionality. Let me know if it works as expected.

Hello.

Thank you for your suggestion. We will try to add pagination. I never tought that Auto Affiliate Links will be used in such an intensive manner to add so many links.

Our users usually have dozens of links, maybe few hundreds tops.

Hello. I have tried but I was not able to replicate your issue on our test servers. Maybe there is an adbocker or some other script that is blocking the javascript.

Are other parts of the plugin admin area that requires javascript working? For example link deletion, link update, etc?

Thank you for your feedback. I will try to find a solution for this.

Thank you. I will analyze what you sent and I will try to replicate the problem so I can provide a fix.

Can you also check and confirm that updating and deleting links is working? I am trying th figure out if it is a general javascript problem or it is localized to the specific operation of adding posts to exclusion list.

There is also an alternate way to add posts to exclusion list. Please go to the edit screen of the post you want to exclude, and at the bottom of there are settings for Auto Affiliate Links. You might need to expand that section and check the box to exclude that specific post. Check the box and save the post. Go back to Post exclusion page and see if the post you excluded from the edit screen appears there.

Hello.

I will check to see if there is something wrong on our side. 

Meanwhile, please?go to the page where you exclude posts in your administration panel and add some posts for exclusions. Without refreshing the page, open developer tools, by pressing?Ctrl +Shift +J? on your keyboard, or by right clicking anywhere on the page and click on Inspect Element. A new panel will open. There, go to Console tab and make a screenshot or copy the errors that appear there and send them to me at contact [at] autoaffiliatelinks [dom] com .

Hello. Thank you for your suggestion. I will try to figure out a way so that the plugin can be used in the way you described.

Hello. Right now, the plugin does not replace existing affiliate links. However, your suggestion might be a good addition in a future update of Auto Affiliate Links.

When the cloaking option was introduced, the rewrite settings were flushed after the plugin settings were saved. Later, WordPress updates changed the way it was working and the calling of the function to flush rewrite rules was discouraged. Later, it started causing problems in some environments and I decided to stop calling it from the plugin, and instead, instruct users to visit the Permalinks settings page, which should work, but it seems that it is not working in all environments. I will change instructions to let people know that they need to save permalinks to make the new cloaking links work.
