Hi Ravi,

I’m a new user. I’m wondering if it’s possible to update the static content of %%USERLINKS%% and %%USERPROFILE%%.

For example, I’d like to change or eliminate the static text “User Profile” at the top of the %%USERPROFILE%% form. How would I do this?

Thanks.

I agree these features would be great to see in an update.

Ravi

If I am using your upsell plugin for Authorize.net…I need to allow my users the following functions:

- Update their credit card info
- Cancel their membership

I can’t see any options to do this on DAP (from the user side). I can see that I can suspend their “active” status…thus discontinuing their recurring on the member management screen on the admin.

Please advise. Thanks.

Sincerely
George

How do I create an affiliate page for “Instant Affiliates” who are not members?

I read the “Instant Affiliates” information and see how to create a link that I give them but what if they are not members? How can an “Instant Affiliate” view their stats?

Thank you,
Dora

Yeah, unfortunately I am not great at Wordpress yet so do not know how to mess w/ the settings for just that page. Will give it a go, but would be nice if there was a simple way to edit the width of the affiliate page.

Is there an easy way to get the sidebar off of just one page w/ Wordpress, would be an easy fix as it would then fit your affiliate template.

Ryan,

Ideally you shouldn’t try to modify the code, as a future upgrade will wipe out your changes.

Just create a new, wide, page template and use that for your affiliate page.

I am trying to change the size of the affiliate page (it is too big for my template). I have changed the size of the table and it edits the upper part to fit, but the lower section remains the same size. How do I change this to fit? Thank you!

Fred,

You can already do this with DAP

You can use the merge tag %%AFF_LINK%% in your emails.

You can also do %%AFF_LINK%%&p=/somepage.html

Ravi what i would really like to see is an affiliate link tag that i can use to create my promo tools section. If you know how butterfly marketing works you know what i mean.

You are doing pretty much the same autogenerating affiliate ID for every user, the only thing is missing is the ability to pre-made promotional emails, blog posts, banners and stuff with affiliate ID built inside.

If could be possibile to insert {aff_link} or {aff_link}&p=http://yoursite.com/somepage.html in the promotional materials this could be awesome.
