Merge Tags in WordPress Posts

Here are the merge-tags that you can use in your WP posts, and what they mean.

%%MSG%%

1) Create a WP “page” with the slug “error”, and it can be accessed at http://YourSite.com/error/

2) In the body of the page, put the text %%MSG%% – followed by whatever copy you want.

3) Enter the URL from Step #1 on your “Products” page, in the field “Error Page URL”

4) Logout of DAP, and log back in for the changes to take effect.

Impact: When someone tries to visit a link that has expired, or a link that they don’t have access to, they will be redirected to the above URL, and the system error message will be shown where you put in the merge code %%MSG%%.

%%SALES_PAGE_URL%%

This text in your blog post/page content, will be replaced by the “Sales Page URL” field from the Products page.

%%AFFDETAILS%%

This will be replaced by the entire Affiliate section from the default home page at YourSite.com/dap/

%%USERPROFILE%%

This will be replaced by the user profile from the default home page at YourSite.com/dap/

%%USERLINKS%%

This will be replaced by the user links section (the list of what products and what links user currently has access to) from the default home page at YourSite.com/dap/

%%FIRST_NAME%%

This will be replaced by the first-name of the user.

%%EMAIL%%

This will be replaced by the email id of the user.

%%MEMBER_HOME_PAGE%%

This will be replaced by whatever is in “Config > Advanced > URL of your User-Profile page”

%%AFF_LINK%%

This will be replaced by the raw affiliate link of the member. If you want it to show up as a link in your blog post, use it like this:

<a href=”%%AFF_LINK%%”>%%AFF_LINK%%</a>

Upgrading to the latest version of LiveLinks

1) Download the latest version of DAP WP Livelinks from the members area.

2) Unzip the zip file to your desktop. Upload the entire DAP-WP-LiveLinks folder (including the folder too) to your WordPress plugins directory (which is wp-content/plugins/)

That’s it!
