idevaffiliate integration

[jevans161]

Hello:

I have idevaffiliate setup on a separate domain from s2member. I am using the instant payment notification method to track affiliate sales.

So under s2Member API / Notifications -> Payment Notification URLs, I have this:

http://www.outrageousmastery.com/affili ... v_saleamt=%%amount%%&idev_ordernum=%%txn_id%%&ip_address=%%cv1%%

and I have my order form short code configured with the custom attribute:

custom="www.yourhomeformastery.com|<?php echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; ?>"

I have php execution installed, and I have verified with previous sales that the ip address is being tracked correctly under %%cv1%%.

However, affiliate sales are not showing up in idevaffiliate. I tested my configuration of idevaffiliate, by taking the appropriate variables from a customer that should have shown up as affiliate sale, and created the following url:

http://www.outrageousmastery.com/affili ... .179.162.4

I copied and pasted this into a browser to test, and the commission showed exactly the way I expected in idevaffiliate. So something must be happened with s2Member not firing the payment notification url.

What do you think it could be?

Could you please enable logging and try a test transaction, then look for the related entries in the logs and paste them here x'ing out any private info? WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Options -> Account Details -> Enable Logging

Have you watched this video? http://www.s2member.com/idevaffiliate-i ... ion-video/

Thanks!

Here you go.

Thanks.

Yes, I have watched the video you posted. There is a new replacement code available (%%user_ip%%), and I changed the ipn url to include that replacement code, instead of using php execution to capture it as a custom variable. It has tracked a couple of affiliate sales, but I know the system is not functioning correctly, as there should be several more affiliate sales showing up. The test sale that I posted should have shown up as an affiliate sale, but it didn't.

Please help as soon as possible on this, I really need to get it done, it's for a client.

Thanks,

Jeffry

Hmm... Could you add an email to your notification to check if notification is being fired and has all the vars in it? WP Admin -> s2Member -> API / Notifications -> Payment Notification -> Send An Email

[jevans161]

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Very strange, very frustrating. I have been trying to get the affiliate system integrated for weeks now.

[jevans161]

I have to have this up and running by tomorrow for this client. Please help as soon as possible.

If you can tell how me how to access the amount of the sale via php, I can integrate this my own way. I've checked through a lot of documentation, and cannot find a price or amount variable that can be displayed on a page/thank you page. Just the email token, which is not what I need.

What is WP Admin -> s2Member -> PayPal Options -> PayPal Account Details -> PayPal® Pro Forms / Recurring Profile Behavior set to? If it's not set to Real-Time / Direct Pay, then that might explain why the Payment Notification URL wasn't fired when you expected it to be.

[jevans161]

I'm using authorize.net pro forms

[jevans161]

I figured it out, it was an auto-login function messing up the initial tracking.

Thanks,

Jeffry

Thanks for the update, Jeffry! Glad you found the problem.

What auto-login function was it?

Ah, got it. I thought that'd be the one you meant, but I wanted to make sure.

Did you try the version that I posted later in that thread to fix a problem? viewtopic.php?f=4&t=14211&p=29918#p31548

[jevans161]

No, I passed the user's email address to the thank you page, and added a function to functions.php to grab the email address, find the user, and log them in automatically.

Code: Select all

function checkout_login() {
    if (!is_user_logged_in() && isset($_REQUEST['user_email'])) {        
        //get the user's email from the checkout page
        $user_email = $_REQUEST['user_email'];
        //automatically log them in, and redirect them
        global $wpdb;
        $get_user_login = $wpdb->get_row('SELECT u.user_login FROM wp_users u WHERE u.user_email = "'.$user_email.'"');        
        $user_login = $get_user_login->user_login;
        $user = get_userdatabylogin($user_login);
        $user_id = $user->ID;
        wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id);
        wp_redirect('http://www.example.com/thank-you/');
        exit;
    }
}
add_action('init', 'checkout_login');

Ah, I see. I thought you said you had used the code in the post you linked to, but the one you quoted now is something else. Why don't you try the one I linked to?

[jevans161]

I did try it. It caused the problem that prompted me to post here.
