S2Member Integration with Affiliates Pro

Hi,

I recently purchased the Affiliates Pro for integration with S2Member pack. After watching the video about API/Tracking and Notifications, I am still unsure of what to do. Affiliates Pro shows a notification key that must be included in all notification URLs. And it says that the default payment notification URL is this:http://subscribetochange.com/wp-content/plugins/affiliates-s2member/request.php?key=4506b23e6237290a43eae8e730a09ca5&subscr_id=%%subscr_id%%&txn_id=%%txn_id%%&amount=%%amount%%&first_name=%%first_name%%&last_name=%%last_name%%&full_name=%%full_name%%&payer_email=%%payer_email%%&item_number=%%item_number%%&item_name=%%item_name%%&user_first_name=%%user_first_name%%&user_last_name=%%user_last_name%%&user_full_name=%%user_full_name%%&user_email=%%user_email%%&user_login=%%user_login%%&user_ip=%%user_ip%%&user_id=%%user_id%%.

What do I now need to put into S2Member API/Tracking and/or Notification to ensure that a paid sign up through S2Member through a referral is communicated to Affiliates Pro.

Also, how does that translate into a payment on Paypal?

Please advice. Thanks!

Thanks for your inquiry. ~ We appreciate your patience :-)

This sounds like a question for the developer of that software. I will try to answer what I can about s2Member’s functionality in this regard though.

1. Tracking has nothing to do with actual sales or transaction processing. s2Member® API Notifications are an additional functionality that simply tracks the sale and credits an affiliate.

2. If tracking is not working as expected, I would first check to be sure that s2Member® actually processed the transaction successfully. See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Log Files (Debug) -› s2Member® Log Viewer.

Or, you could also setup an API Notification with s2Member® that comes via email directly to you, so you will know that particular DID get processed. This would be my recommendation for testing.
See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› API / Notifications -› Payment Notifications

3. If you can confirm that transaction processing is going through fine, but your affiliate application is not tracking the sale, I would check to be sure you have the tracking code provided by your affiliate system in the right place (i.e. make sure it is attached to the correct API Notification — normally s2Member’s Payment Notification).

If all else fails, please consult with the developer of your affiliate system about this. Please feel free to invite them to this discussion. The API Notification URL that you posted looks fine to me. However, it results in a dead link when I attempt to access that URL in a browser.
