Hi JazzyB,
Glad to know you liked the plugin.
Are you talking about the coupon preview or the shortcode when you put it in any posts? If possible I would like to take a look at any of your page where you have the coupon shortcode.
That way I can help you to correct this.
Regards.

Hi there,
I put the shortcode on a new blank page. Then I go to that page. The coupon looks good then I click to get the deal. Another window opens but instead of going to the linked website that I added in the coupon, it goes to a 404 page on my website.
The url for the 404 page shows the linked url that I added in the coupon, on the end of the url of the page where the coupon is located. So there are 2 urls. For example, if my site was yahoo, it looks like this
http://www.yahoo.com/discounts/www.bluehost.com/track/tackid
It’s hard to explain, haha! I would be happy to link the page but the site isn’t live yet. (Could that be the problem?) Please let me know what I can do to help!
Thank you so much! 🙂
Hi JazzyB,
That could be the problem. But then again, I have used the plugin on my local installs and it worked perfectly. So, I can’t be sure.
It would be helpful if I could see the shortcode live. I can’t really think of anything without looking at it. I’m sorry about that.
May be we can see if it works when your site is live. If it doesn’t work then, we can definitely come up with some other solution.
Regards.

Hi!
No need to apologize. I understand you can only do so much and I do appreciate you trying!
I tried it live and it is still doing it. So I have published the page so you can see it live:
http://www.thewebhostingguide.net/coupon-codes-discounts/
Hope this helps!
Thank you! 🙂
Hey,
I think I have figured it out.
Add http:// or https:// before your affiliate link.
When you don’t put that, link becomes http://www.thewebhostingguide.net/coupon-codes-discounts/www.bluehost.com/track/twhg/
But when I try it with http:// it worked. Try this and let me know if it works.
Regards.
