S2Member/IdevAffiliate post-sale question.

I have both the pro version of s2Member and I have bought IdevAffiliate platinum. Hopefully it was through the affiliate link that credits your company for the referral. :)

Anyway, I just wanted to ask. Do my customers who want to be my affiliates need to create a separate affiliate account with my Idev installation or is there some way to automatically have the two accounts linked so they do not need to do the extra steps associated with creating and logging in to IDev accounts?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Thanks for your inquiry.

iDevAffiliate does not currently integrate directly with WordPress, and this is not something that s2Member controls. There could possibly be a way to link the two, but we are currently unaware of any way that this could be possible, as this is outside of the scope of s2Member’s integration with iDevAffiliate.

s2Member does have a number of remote ops that you may want to look into if you do decide to pursue the possibility of this integration.

Thanks for the heads up on this thread :-)

Yes, this is possible with iDevAffiliate/s2Member. Please see this section in your iDevAffiliate Dashboard. This can be integrated together with s2Member using the “Create Affiliate Account” script provided by iDev, and s2Member’s API Notification for the Registration event.

What you’re doing is pasting a special URL for s2Member to process during each customer registration. s2Member will contact your iDevAffiliate installation through this URL, and iDevAffiliate creates a matching affiliate account within it’s database.

The URL that you give to s2Member might look like this.
