The affiliate link code generator enables the store administrator to create banners and text ads for affiliates to use in their web sites, ezines, and newsletters. Once the store administrator enters the banners and text ads, the code generator automatically inserts each affiliate's ID into the code for them to copy from their affiliate support panel.

Browse for a .jpg or .gif image to upload. AShop will generate a link with this image file and insert each affiliate's ID code for tracking.

Type or paste ad copy into the text box. This text will be displayed beneath the ad banner image or if an image is not uploaded, will be used to create a text ad with affiliate click-thru link. Typically, a link to affiliate.php with the affiliate ID for tracking is inserted within the ad copy.
For example;
Ad copy <a href="http://www.your_domain/affiliate.php?id=1>Link Text</a> and so on.
An affiliate link token is provided for convenience so that you may instead enter:
Ad copy <a href=" %affiliatelink%">Link Text</a> and so on.

Click the "Add" button to upload the image and save the link code.
