    Hi all,

    Anyone know a way that I can direct all affiliate link referrals to my site to a different landing page. For example, any search engine or non-referred traffic will land on my index.html. BUT, if the visitor arrives via an affiliate link I would like to direct them to a different page that offers a 1 month free trial making this free trial offer a promotional tool my affiliates can use.

    Other than the free i month, there is no difference in the subsbscriptions.

    Thanks,

    Lou

    I think this is the way...

    Hi lou, not done it myself "yet" but as far as I know, its extremely simple. Just create another webpage how you want it to look, and then in your amember CP when setting up the affiliate links, simply put in the new url here - its that easy!

    let me know if it dosnt work.. save me some time as well..
    thx

    In reference to the above question and answer

    I have 4 splash pages for affiliates to use. they should be able to use these in manual surf programs and so on.

    How do I create/reference their affiliate link in these pages so that they get credit if someone visits the site (my member site) from that page?

    I have searched the forum but am unable to find a thread with this information.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    amember build affiliate links this way:
    /amember/go.php?r=MEMBERID
    In php you can get member_id from user's sesion:
    $_SESSION[_amember_id]

    Can I build a link like this and give an individual affiliate credit for the sale?

    /signup.php?r=MEMBERID&price_group=-GROUPNAME

    I'm trying to figure out how to give one affiliate a unique landing page URL or a link like the one above without needing to include it in my banner and links that everyone has access to. He's doing a special promotion and I want it just for his links going to only that price group..

    No this will not work.
    You will need to modify /amember/go.php and redirect user depending on his affiliate id:
    if($aff_id == 1){
    /// Special link for affiliate
    header("Location: /amember/signup.php?price_group=-1");

    }else{
    // Link for others
    header("Location: $link");
    }
