 * When trying to generate a new link to a specific page
    it just reloads and no
   new link is made
 * in the copy box it stays as your reg referral link
 * Bug? and how to fix
 * I see so many error topics here that are fairly new?
 * Does the plugin even support the new version of wordpress, even though it says
   it does in dashboard and here on wordpress????? Hmmmmmmm
 * Also the details say that you can give out credit manually, lmao, no you can’t,
   i have looked in every single place in your plugin, and on the free version (
   as of now) you can not manually award commission to a registered person that 
   has been approved the right way!
 * Quote from plugin page “Free Features – You can credit commissions only to affiliates
   that have registered and have been enabled correctly”
 * That does mean that i can give someone “extra” commission outside of what they
   are making from their ref link?
 * Or am i wrong about what that means?

 * Regarding the problem with Link Generator, I think it is caused by a check that
   plugin performs to make sure that affiliates are entering an url of your site
 * On some specific url this check may fail, causing the issue that you are experiencing
   
   You can disable the check, adding the following line of code at the end of functions.
   php file of your theme or child
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'yith_wcaf_is_hosted', '__return_true' );
       ```
   
 * Please, make sure to test this change on a staging installation before proceeding
   to production
 * Regarding WP version, we test our plugin using git version of WordPress
    This
   means that we currently run a development version of WP on our test bench
 * For this reason, I’m pretty sure that Affiliates is compatible with latest WP
   version
    Anyway, if you find any issue, you can always post here, were the community
   will try to help 😉
 * Finally, I’m afraid that there was a misunderstanding regarding plugin features
   
   Unfortunately admin cannot grant extra commissions to affiliates: commissions
   are only generated automatically when a customer visits a referral link and purchases
   something in your store
