February 20th, 2010 by Ardian Yuli Seytanto Leave a reply »

Hello everyone, I’m sorry if I didn’t update this “Prestashop tips and trick” for a long time. My wife was pregnant and our doctor says that on ends of March my baby estimated to be born, so I have been in busy days since birth need a lot of moneys. And I’m very happy I can publish my next tutorial How To Testing Prestashop and Affiliates for All Modules Integration. A lot of people failed in this configuration testing since there is no manual how to use Prestashop and Affiliates for All modules. I have to explore the module source code to imagine how does this module work. And here it is our complete tutorial.

#1 Get your affiliate link

Get your affiliate link by login to your Affiliates for All front end. Take a look on our previous tutorial Prestashop “Affiliates For All” Modules Integration – AFA Installation how to do it. After you have successfully login to your account, you’ll have a link like this.

Before this you have to clear your cookies so you can understand how Prestashop and Affiliates for All communicate.

#6 View Your Cart Summary

Unfortunately there is a bug in Prestashop “Affiliates for All” modules, you have to ask your friend to see his cart summary to get the referral order recorded in prestashop database.

The shop owner have to update the order statuses twice to finalize this complicated affiliation. Update the order state to “Payment Accepted”.

    Hey,

    I’m having a problem with one part of this – when ever I try and mark the order as delivered it just goes to a “blank” page (well, actually it has the full Admin panel header, just nothing below it), and the order status isn’t changed. Any ideas?

      Hey Steve,
      Thanks for your comment,
      But this is just testing AFA module configuration, so we don’t make any core modification. What prestashop version do you use ?

      • LAZ says:
