DAP’s Affiliate Feature: How to Create Custom Referral Links

Custom Referral Links

DAP's built-in affiliate management feature now supports custom affiliate links.

Watch video to see how your affiliates

 can create custom referral links!


Referral Codes

Your affiliates can now create personalized links called ‘referral codes’ in DAP.

For e.g., if the referral code is "john" and say the affiliate id (DAP user id) is 10, any of these links will work:

https://yoursite.com/?ref=john
https://yoursite.com/ref/john
https://yoursite.com?ref=10
https://yoursite.com/ref/10

With tracking Id:
https://yoursite.com/?ref=john&tid=12345

With tracking Id and Redirect tag:
https://yoursite.com/?ref=john&tid=12345&p=example.com

With Redirect tag:
https://yoursite.com/?ref=john&p=example.com

Your affiliates can customize these codes in the affiliate-facing page in DAP.

Affiliate Shortcode

You can add a "custom referral code" section to your Affiliate page in DAP >> Member Pages.

Your affiliates can save their referral code on this page. They'll also find their referral link on this page.

Important: Save Permalink

For the new referral code to work, you need to visit your WP admin >> Settings >> Permalinks page, and save it once. 

You don't have to change anything on that page. Just click on save/update button. It'll automatically update your .htaccess file with the rules that DAP needs for the referral codes to work.

Without these rules in .htaccess, the new referral code will not work.

Existing Affiliate ID will continue to work

The existing/default DAP affiliate link will continue to work. Your affiliates don't have to change it - if they don't want to.

https://yoursite.com/dap/a/?a=10

They can continue using their existing affiliate link.

Both the old format and new format will work. 

Be sure to Watch the video above for all the details!


My Online Course Launch Strategy

I recently surveyed my audience to find out their main challenges when it comes to building and launching an online course. 

This question has helped me gather a ton of data and understand the problems my prospects are dealing with, when it comes to creating and launching an online course.

The 3 main challenges that most people face when it comes to building and launching an online course: 

1. No list or small list.
2. Busy schedule.
3. Don't know how to put it all together, organize and deliver.


So I decided to create a FREE training video to show you the exact steps I follow to build my list, create and organize my course content, and the order in which I execute in every phase - from idea, planning, audience building, content creation, implementation to the actual launch.

Veena Prashanth - This is the shortest yet most powerful implementation course I have ever taken... It simplifies the course creation process so much that I will definitely be using this on my next course.

Thanks for all you share, Veena. You have a true fan here.
