Question about Wordpress and Amazon

by scrofford
9 replies
Hey everyone,

I am creating a product page in my blog. I am marketing amazon products. What I want to do is show an affiliate picture link of the product on each post. Copying and pasting the html into the post itself doesn't work. When I view the page, it just shows the html code.

My question is how do I get the product picture link to show instead? Is there a plugin I can use? I have never dealt with this before and am at a loss.

I don't want to paste the html directly into the source code because it is an Artisteer template and all CSS which I don't know much about.

Can anyone help me out here?

A good example of what I am trying to do is http://doghealthguide.biz/category/products this is not my site though. It is just an example of what I'm trying to do.

Thanks again!

    I like RSSGround which provides RSS feeds for multiple affiliate programs - Amazon, eBay, Clickbank, RegNow, etc.

    I use this product for a lot of things including recycling my blog content to other blogs, placing affiliate products on my links, importing news feeds, etc.

    Great product, I have been using for over two years and it works like a charm.

        Hi steve,
        Looks like one of those automatic drip feed plug ins. I use one on my sites, doesn't look the same as the one I use though. You choose your products, choose the display time choose the layout and then forget about it :-).
        cheers

    Do you mean like how the Amazon plugin with blogger works? I'd like one like that as I'm about to switch from blogger to wordpress.

    If I have to guess... you are pasting the Amazon code into the wysiwyg animal (a.k.a. Visual editor) - which is a big NO-NO, when working with code!

    Switch to the HTML editor and try again.

      Here's the link - Its called AmaNiche I have put it up on about 6 sites now. Very easy to use. You upload it into WordPress as a plug in and then go through the settings. There are excellent triaining videos in the members area.
      cheers
