I am rebuilding our partner program (those of you who affiliate with MuscleHunks.com, PowerMen.com or LiveMuscleShow.com - please write me..... we are about to merge them)
And I want a FHG module, so that folks can just generate the proper codes... but I dont know how! And I cannot find anything about it in google, or on the boards.
Any one have a suggestion?
are you going to be using NATS or another affiliate software system?
I can tell you with NATS, its really easy, you just build your gallery as normal, then replace all links to your website with the NATS-generated link (in Ad Tools Admin, chose Hosted AdTools and any site and NATS will automatically create the links for you) then save it as a php file. Finally, enter the URL into Ad Tools Admin and it will automatically generate the proper URL for all your affiliates.
I have looked at NATS, but from what I understand (and please forgive me if I am wrong....) WE would have to cut the checks to the affiliates. CCbill would be out of it....
Is this correct, or do I have it all wrong?
No, that's correct. If you use NATS, then the responsibility for generating affiliate checks falls to you. However... you can easily generate a dump file from NATS that you can import to Quickbooks and use that to generate the checks, it's really not a big hassle at all.
Yes, you would have to cut cheques to affiliates, or convince them to switch to epassporte / wire transfer payouts :)
So I take it you are using ccbill's affiliate system? In that case, for FHGs you will have to build your galleries, replace your site links with the following php code:
within the above code, be sure to replace the following:PHP Code:<a href="<?php
if ($query!=NULL)
echo 'http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clicks.cgi?CA=924683-0007&PA='.$query.'&HTML=http://www.realbareback.com';
else
echo 'http://www.realbareback.com';
?>">
- 924683-0007 with your site specific codes
- realbareback.com with your paysitesite
AND use this bit of code to keep it secured, just under the body tag
and finally save the file as a php file and have your affiliates send traffic to:PHP Code:<?php $query=getenv("QUERY_STRING");
$query = (int)$query;
?>
http://freehostdomain.com/directory/gallery.php?123456
where 123456 is their specific CCBill PA affiliate code.
make sense?
cheers!

Um... no, not so much sense :) Can you show me a page where that is working, so I see what exactly it does? (I am way outta my element here...)
sorry, I actually can't show you a page where its working because you would only see the generated code and not the original parsed code.
Its not that hard, just test it like this:
1) create a simple page with nothing but one link on it
2) sub the a href link from http://paysite.com to the stuff I put in the first box exactly as it is
3) stick the stuff in the second box directly under the body tag
4) save the file as gallery.php and then upload it somewhere
you should then be able to browse it by going to http://yourdomain.com/gallery.php and the link will go to http://www.realbareback.com or if you visit http://yourdomain.com/gallery.php?123456 the link will go to http://refer.ccbill.com/cgi-bin/clic...albareback.com
That should help you understand the basics...the next step is to customize that first code bit so it does not go to my realbareback site. Then use that as a template for your links within you FHGs
