    I'm using Amember's affiliate program. I just checked my banners and links, and they all should be redirecting to my sales page, but when they're implemented on people's blogs they keep directing to my homepage.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Edit: It's not all of them, one blog the banner goes through fine, two others are where it directs to the home page

    Check aMember CP -> Affiliate Programm -> Manage Banners and text links -> Edit -> URL to redirect after click for all banners and links that you create.

    The links there are correct (they go to my sales page) that's why I didn't know why it was going to my home page.

    Affiliate Link Problems

    I also have a problem with affiliate links. My system is set up using wordpress and I have added banners to wordpress. I have set up 2 users myself 1 and my colleague 2.
    When I login to my account I have affiliate info but my colleague doesn't have an affiliate options.
    The banner link in my account is
    <a href="http://webmarketingquickies3.com/amember/go.php?r=1&i=b4"><img src="http://webmarketingquickies3.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/quick4.jpg" border=0 alt="WebMarketingVideos" width=120 height=90></a>
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated

    Many thanks Alexander that sorted it. Guess I need to get into the manual more however it does not seem to give much affiliate information. e.g. When using Wordpress how to add banners and articles that affiliates can use.
    Would be grateful if you can give me directions where to get more in depth support.

    Best wishes

    aMember use affiliate links in such format:
    /amember/go.php?r=USERID
    For example from protected PHP page you can use this code to provide link for all users:
    <a href="/amember/go.php?r=<?= $_SESSION[_amember_id];?>">Affiliate link</a>
