    Hey Guys,

    I'm going to be honest in saying that I have no idea how to setup the affiliate portion of amember. But this is what we're doing and what we want to do.

    A user from an affiliate goes to its separate landing page:

    1. Creating a code where a user types in the affiliates code to receive a discount (we know how to do this)

    2. Using http://directtrack.com/ or some other thing you may suggest that allows a user who doesn't type the code and/or decides to comeback into our site and purchases our product - the main affiliate still gets credit due to some cookie tracker that is on the site.

    I know this is possible (#2), I just don't know how to do it...

    Please help?

    Thank you so much.

    #2 is automatic as the cookie is put into the 1st time visitors browser. When they come back to the site, the affiliate will get credit for the purchase (unless they clear cookies)
