1. Does the forum have to have links pointing to supported merchants to work or will it overwrite any links to external products with a Viglink supported merchant affiliate id?

If you're familiar with how Driving Revenue's affiliation works, then you're familiar with how VigLink's works, too. They're very similar. That's part of why we've teamed up!

To answer your questions,

1. There are no special VigLink merchant links to use. You (and your users) link wherever you would normally link. When a visitor clicks an external link, our javascript checks to see if that link can be affiliated. If it can be, we affiliate it on the fly. Any time we see a link that's already affiliated, we leave it alone. (If you prefer, you can tell us to overwrite those existing affiliate links in your account settings).

2. We have lots of users using VigLink and AdSense together, and we aren't aware of any problems.
