Prosper202 1.8.3 upgrade problem

Money? Prosper202 1.8.3 is free to download!

so any one know how to fix it..... anyone have idea?????

This is one of many reasons i don't like using 202, hosted solutions you don't half to worry about updating anything. you might need to just start a clean slate install or try renewing Landing Page Code and Outbound Redirect Link.

In the same boat with you.
Glad i held on a little longer too. Will allow some time for these issues to be sorted out before i upgrade.

i try to find 1.8.3.2 and 1.8.2 version..

but i can't find them.. anyone have link these version ...??:rolleyes:

i try this but not help me..
i replace landing.php with 1.7.2 version.. and use old code..
landing page working fine but i can't show in p202.. when anyone see the landing page i can't track .

i just update p202 1.8.3.3 . and now its working fine.. thank you,,
p202 is good tracker..

For everyone else, who has some issues or bugs with your P202 install, please report them with build-in messaging system on P202 right bottom corner.

There we will be able to give you better support, then here on Warrior Forum.

Then thats the problem. To successfully upgrade from P202 1.7.2 to 1.8.3.3 you need to delete all files and replace with the files in downloaded .zip file from Prosper202 website.

Database will be upgraded on Upgrade process.

New messaging system is available from version 1.8.

If you have some questions, need support with you Prosper202 or have some recommendations, please use built-in messaging at bottom right corner in your installation.

Does the Global Post Back doesn't work for you?

The reason it outputs pixels, is only because to fire 3-party tracking pixels on global postback. Probably thats not the best solution there with 3-party pixels (by rendering HTML directly on the same page), but it do the job. We will improve it in next releases.

It will work no mater what, as far subid or sid variables are provided in postback.

About headers, that will be sorted out.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for your feedback on this, we'll get the header issue addressed. As for your other concerns, we recently made a decision to add much of the functionality of the universal smart pixel to the global postback pixel. This was based of our user's actions and observations of the problems they were having, misusing our pixel types.

The major functionality of the new gpb.php is the ability to piggy back post backs and also use tokens in the post back urls, we posted about this new feature here a while ago.

Our Universal Smart Pixels just got smarter

So for example, you can fire a postback and pass on the values of c1-c4 to that post back. This is a very powerful feature for mobile advertisers doing s2s calls and needing to send additional data back to the ad network for conversion tracking.

Since you are the author of one of the most advanced p202 ebooks on the market, I wouldn't expect you to mix up the different pixels but a lot of our users are not as advanced as you. So the ability to conditionally output the other pixels was left in there. It has zero to minimal effect on the performance of the script.

Finally (for everyone else) just want to add that, Prosper202 1.8.3 was a very BIG update. A lot of new features were added with the specific purpose of making our users more profitable and efficient. We tested extensively on our environment before launching, but we can't account for everyone's hosting environment. Some of you have had issues, but the majority of users have been fine.

We push out updates quickly, and have addressed everything mentioned above so far. We are on a weekly release schedule and are about to launch our 3rd update since launching about 2 weeks ago, this one with brand new features.

Also please note that there are only 2 of us working on Prosper202, we are not a huge team. So once again, we ask that if you have support issues or bug reports etc please don't post them in this forum, at least if you want me or Oskars to be able to help you quickly.

We've added a very cool in app help and messaging system. It's the blue box with the question mark at the bottom right. Click it when you want to talk to us, your messages come directly to us via email and phone notifications (Long way of saying if you use the built-in system we see every message almost instantly)

Prosper202 1.7.2 is almost 2.5 years old with bugs and issues that have been completely fixed and addressed in 1.8.3. For some people just the act of upgrading without using any of the new features, will pay off instantly in performance enhancements and productivity gains.

I actually find the 'HTML' feature of GPB.PHP very useful.
Previously I used to test postbacks by creating a 'dummy' traffic source with a URL that recorded all requests to it. Now however I can just enter the real traffic source postback address and GPB.PHP will display whether the postback was sent or not, and whether the transmission was successful.

The only technical issue that I've faced so far with Prosper v1.8.3.3 is the fact that IE cookies which are written by landing.php are not fetched by the LP redirect link, go.php... leading to low LP CR and S/U-rate statistics that affect just IE users. However, I found a solution to that problem by sending the cookie content in the URL structure of go.php (i.e. go.php?pci=3444).

Now everything works perfectly. Thank you Nana for a great piece of software!

Hi Stephen!

Did you have to update your guild because of this latest update?
Is there anything different?

Hi Stephen

You are correct that a postback can never trigger an image, javascript, or iframe pixel. It's not technically possible.

As you were wondering in an earlier post, Prosper202 actually recreates the 3rd party pixel (js, image or iframe) and fires it (under the right circumstances) otherwise the code just acts like a normal postback system.

We just made it multipurpose, so we are not as crazy as you may think. But we are crazy enough to shake things up

PS: Hurry up and install 1.8.x and get used to it, so you can have the first Prosper 1.8.x guide on the market. A lot has changed for the better and there's more to come!

When I update, does it keep the data collected from campaigns? Is there a way to back it up?

Thanks,
