Adding Amazon Tab

[Dave234]

Hello,
I would like to add a couple Amazon Store tabs, for example one for books, and the other for DVD's and another for CD's.

I would like to be able to make each tab "my own", so to speak, so that it doesn't look like a standard Amazon ad. Like I would make the picture bigger and look cooler, etc. I also want to have a comment section for each item being sold on the website, to kind of make the content my own.

And I would like to say a little something about a lot of the items I would be hawking for Amazon.

The forum at the Amazon Affiliates website is no help whatsoever. I tell them I'm using vBulletin and they have no idea what I'm talking about. Strange since vBulletin is very widely known.

Can someone here on this fine vBulletin forum help me? It would mean a lot.

From your description, I honestly can't picture what you want. You said you want tabs to the Amazon Store (easy enough) but then you talk about changing the tabs to look different and saying stuff about them? An image showing what you want would really, really help here.

I don't want to change the look of the tab, but the contents of that page. I want to control where the images go, etc, and just have a link to that item on Amazon.

I would want to decide exactly what items I want featured in the Amazon store.

So exactly what are you asking about? If you just want to create a page, there are articles in the articles forums on how to create your own page in vbulletin.

I would also like to have the functionality of adding an Amazon store and product to my website. This would be nice so I can feature the amazon product in a bigger image but still give the opportunity of my forum members to review the product. This way your the content that your forum members generate becomes your content that gets ranked high in the search engine for that particular amazon item by people who actually use and purchase these item.

Instead of just having a link that screems, "you are leaving this forum and going to a chessy looking amazon store" so we can make some commission for recommending product. It needs to look like our original forum/site as much as possible. I would think there would be a mod for this since Amazon has one of the best affiliate programs known on the internet.

I would really love to have this feature because it would give the forum it's own store and the ability for it's members to produce original content to get ranked in the search engine for important keywords for people looking for specific product details and reviews from people who have tried it before.

So I think he's asking what would be the best way to accomplish this?

How to setup an Amazon review store so that members can generate there own content about the product being sold and gives a unique URL of each amazon product being sold for product review rankings like an ecommerce store or droppshiper would?

That sounds quite elaborate and I'm not really sure how populate such a modification would be and so I'm not sure someone is going to just code something like that and offer it up here for free.

[Dave234]

Exactly, Cougartint! You are awesome!

Well, that is going to require a bit of coding. If you have something coded up and you are having problems, then you may post in the Programming Forums for help. Otherwise, I suggest you post in the Unpaid or Paid Modification Request Forums.
