As a note, I'm still running 3.0.0 but I don't think that would make a difference. I can live with the bb tag problem for now. I doubt very many people use that method.

Amy, any chance for some more direction on finding the correct affiliate code? Thank you.

Go into your CJ account and find the PID code for your web site
CJ > Account > Web Site Settings

Then go to http://affiliates.ebay.com/tools/linking/ and put that PID code and generate the link. You'll see the click-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXX number there.

That's the problem. It's looking for [code][url=http://...]text[url]

It's done that way because that's the way the wysiwyg editor handles urls.

So, it will not parse urls put in the way you describe unless you add another section that will look for and parse urls in that format.

No problem really as I doubt that many use that type of code. Thanks for working on this as it will be very useful.

Thanks. So that pid is the number we want it seems :)

Go figure, as soon as I make the changes someone posts a link like this ;)

I am not sure we can convert that type. If commission junction doesn't have a redirect setup for links like that, we're hosed. If you can find a conversion format, I'm more than happy to code the parser and converter.

No problem... I just thought it was funny. But I did run it through eBay Affiliate parser and came up with the following:

converts to

Hmmm, it looks like the answer to go to any page might just be to slap on the first part followed by a loc and then the original url. I'll try to play with it later to see if that's true. If it is, it will be an easy fix.
