AffiliateMU-0.0.3.zip (600 download(s))

This is a plugin for WordpressMU (it may well work in standard WP too) which will replace any links posted with affiliated versions if they are defined. This plugin can be installed in either the standard plugins or the mu-plugins folder depending on your requirements. Once active, it adds an additional sub-menu option under Site Admin for the site admin user which can be used to set up affiliate links. There are four values to enter - the start of the URL to replace, your affiliate ID for that organisation, the merchant or programme ID of that organsation and the affiliate provider (type). At present, basic Tradedoubler, Affiliate Future and Affiliate Window links are available and more will be added during the testing phases. This is a beta release and therefore should be used with caution.

Hmm... the file I'm downloading seems to be truncated. It's only 299 lines and ends with a php open tag followed by a {. It gives me an error when I try to install it in my mu-plugins folder. Looks like a really cool plugin, though!

Not sure what happened there, but you're correct. I've fixed the file and reuploaded it. Let me know how it goes now.

it gives med a Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /wp-content/mu-plugins/AffiliateMU-0.0.3.php on line 295

Not seen that myself and line 295 doesn't have anything on it in my version.

Parse error: parse error in d:\www\easyphp\www\mu\wp-content\mu-plugins\AffiliateMU-0.0.3.php on line 295

In the current download (AffiliateMU-0.0.3.zip), the plugin is not closed properly. This is why Cronner and ELOY are getting the errors reported above. Line 295 is the last line in the plugin. The affiliate_options function is still open at this point. It may just be that: <?php } ?> needs to be added to the end to close the function - or it may be that there is a whole chunk of the plugin missing. ColinFilmJournal, I hope you pick this up (it's almost a year since the last comment) and can look into it. Thanks!
