Firstly I wanted just to customize it and use it, but soon I realised it is a code of poor quality. It is based on good ideas which can be reused, but the code had to be rewriten from a big part. So I improved the code, corrected major security holes and other problems. It took me 2 days to come out with first version of POST Affiliate, and this is the result. It has the same set of features as PHP_Affiliate and some advantages: - can work if register_variables is Off - few security fixes (some of them serious) - better basic design - better logic and action flow ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CHANGELOG ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Changes in POST Affiliate 1.3 - added configuration option for cookie expiry, path and domain - corrected check1.php to not exit if no referrer is present - added debug message option to check for errors when registering sales - added support for more languages: - swedish (sve.php) by Therese S <tessan_sthlm60@hotmail.com> - french (fr.php) by RW Media <regisw@rw-media.be> Changes in POST Affiliate 1.2 - corrected bug that caused that the country was not changed in user profile - corrected small bugs when displaying text in clicks and sales page Changes in POST Affiliate 1.1 - corrected small bugs - added support for more languages: - italian (it.php) by Luca S. <elsombrero@libero.it> - chinese (big5.php) by Peter Kuo <service@iwcash.com> - german (deu.php) by V�llig Unerwartet <unerwartet@austromail.at> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ How to change default language in POST Affiliate: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - it is relatively simple, you only have to edit file affconfig.php, and set $language to the name of language file. Example: $language = "big5.php"; // for chinese or $language = "deu.php"; // for german or $language = "it.php"; // for italian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ UPGRADING FROM PHP AFFILIATE v1.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ There was no change in database so far, so just copy the scripts. Of course you should backup first. The header and footer files were renamed from header.290, footer.290 to standard header.php, footer.php. Admin has its own set of header and footer files. There will be some changes in database in the next release in order to make some new features (see TODO) UPGRADING FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF POST AFFILIATE (1.0 or 1.1) - just replace the scripts. Don't forget to keep your old affconfig.php sile with valid configuration, and language file (if you made some changes there). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TODO ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - history of sales and click throughs - confirmation on serious actions (such as delete) - better security - multi language support - admin can change password - mass emails to affiliates - dynamic configuration of amounts, etc. All those features and much more are implemented in commercial version - PostAffiliate Pro (http://www.webradev.com/postaffiliatepro/) If you want to start serious affiliate program, I advice to use commercial version. It is possible to upgrade from free version to commercial version without loosing any data. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ REQUIREMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - PHP 4 or higher - PERL regular expressions support for PHP - it is part of PHP installation in majority of cases - MySQL The program has been tested on UNIX (BSD) and Windows plaforms, and should work on all platforms where PHP and MySQL are running. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ INSTALLATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - download and unzip the scripts - create MySQL database and it's contents. Assuming you have phpMyAdmin installed: - Copy the contents of database.sql - Paste it into the text box on phpMyAdmin underneath "Run SQL query/queries on database affiliates:" - Press 'Go' and the tables will be created for you. - Change password of admin; -- type the following into the same box: ('newpassword' should be your new admin password UPDATE admin set pass = 'newpassword' where user = 'admin'; - Press 'Go' again and the password will update - open the 'affconfig.php' file in your favourite text editor - For $domain, replace "www.domain.com" with the web address to your site. eg. We would put "www.organicphp.com", you could be "example.domain.com" or "www.domain.com/~you". Do not end with a forward slash (/) or start with "http://" - For $server, replace "localhost" with the address to your MySQL server. It is nearly always "localhost", although check with your host if unsure. - For $db_user, replace "username" with the username you have made or have been given for your MySQL database. - For $db_pass, replace "password" with the password you need to access your MySQL database. Make sure you give the username a password, or anyone can enter and change your database. - For $database, replace "affiliates" with the name of your MySQL database, this could be anything, it's up to you (or your host!) - For $currency, replace "UK Pounds" with the currency that you will be paying your affiliates in. e.g. US sites may enter "US Dollars". - For $emailinfo, replace with your email address. - $yoursitename is simply your site name - $lang is 'eng.php' - there will be support for multiple languages later - Save these changes and exit the file - Next open the file 'check1.php' in your favourite text editor - For $payment, replace "5.00" in variable $payment with the amount you would like to pay your affiliates for every successful sale that they have sent you.
