Hi Warriors,

I've got a problem with my Wordpress site. I use Suffusion theme, but when I add my affiliate links to my landing pages, something weird happens. For example, I put three links in a row, each of which leads to the same CPA offer, but the third link uses a redirect (mywordpresssite.com/goto/url-of-the-offer/), whereas the first two are direct links. I add the links the same way with each of the three. Why do you think this happens? I know that this is probably not the best place to ask but I don't know where else to.

Also, sometimes, even when I add the url correctly, when I update the post the links don't lead to the urls that I set it to but its link address is some javascript code ("javascript:void(0)/*297*/"), which doesn't work at all.

Any advice is welcome. Thanks

P.S.: I use the FCKEditor plugin.

    maybe your script is creating the problem...

      Thanks for your replies.

      Instead of testing which plugin causes the problem, I just check the source code everytime before publishing a post so as to make sure nothing is messed up. Not the best solution, but works.

      Cheers

        Oh no, it's still not solved.

        Now when I'm adding my aff links (right in the source code), they change to something different than what I've added, for example:


        "http://bsitm3.com/?a=4796&c=571&s1="

        changes to:

        "http://bsitm3.com/?a=4796&c=571∓s1="

        (I've got no intention of promoting my aff links here, whatsoever.)

        Any suggestions?

          Hi Tekamolo,

          You are perceiving a problem that doesn't actually exist. What you see happening is proper URL encoding to make your links into valid HTML. This is a positive thing, not a negative.
