Ok, after HOURS AND HOURS spent testing and messages back and forth on the WP Affiliate forum with no success - I found the cause of the problem. Like most of these things, in the end it was a simple fix.

Copied below is the update I posted over on the WP Affiliate forum:

Ok, just wanted to follow up and let you know how I solved this. I think you need to update your integration guide (http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpre ... ftware-368) to include a few extra steps, because after HOURS AND HOURS spent testing, it was a very simple fix.

s2Member has a very useful option of selling access to Specific Posts/Pages, which is what I want to use. To have those sales post through to WP Affiliate you need to copy the URL in step 3 of the integration guide into all the relevant fields on the s2Member -> API Notifications page, including Specific Post/Page ~ Sales Notifications.

Sales not registering in WP Affiliate

2012-01-05T07:19:20-05:00

Hi All!

I have integrated s2Member and WP Affiliate following these instructions: http://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/wordpre ... ftware-368

And everything seems to be working.

But, when I run through a test, the sale shows up against the affiliate as a click through, not a sale - so no payout is awarded.

Using my test affiliate link I access the sales page to purchase access to a Specific Page.

I am using the following shortcode on the sales page:

[s2Member-PayPal-Button sp="1" ids="1381" exp="120" desc="Test button" ps="paypal" lc="" cc="USD" dg="0" ns="1" custom="example.com" ra="0.01" image="default" output="button" /]

The sale processes via PayPal and I'm redirected back to the Specific Page where I can download the purchased ebook.

So all this is working perfectly.

But it doesn't show as a sale in WP Affiliate. Any idea what's going wrong??

Thanks for all your help!

PS. I have posted this on the WP Affiliate forum, but thought I'd post here too in case someone else had come across this issue.
