Hi fellow warriors, It seems the famous wp plugin which puts affiliates links like /go/tla is not working on wordpress 2.6 (http://patchlog.com/wordpress/hidden-affiliate-links/), so can someone tell me a better wordpress plugin or method to hdie affiliate links.

I am looking for a practical solution (so editing .htaccess is out of scope here)

Also for my clickbank links which I am using in article submission, how to hide them ? Can someone tell me the Best Practice to follow ?

Thanks alot
Pushkar

    I use the software in my sig. PHP Link Cloaker. It is a standalone program (not a plugin) and will require it's own mysql database. Check the demos on the site. It plays fine with Wordpress. Also lets you track clicks to see which links are more popular.

    Personally I just create a webpage in a /recommends/ folder. Every page in that folder just has a php redirect file in it which I add as I promote a new product - I don't promote a heap of products so it works fine.

    This is the link that shows in my email for a Justin Michie's traffic product:

    Anyone going there is bounced straight to Justins Traffic Tips Report. The code to do a php redirect is pretty simple:

    Code:
    <?php
header( 'Location: http://www.yoursite.com/affiliatebit.html' ) ;
?>
