P202 and Ads4Dough

[alexb]

I have an advanced landing page setup with two offers from A4D. It doesn't seem to be passing subIDs to their tracking system though. I assume that I'm doing something wrong on my end, so does anybody have any experience with an issue like this?

I've had this problem direct linking with Commission Junction. Would love to read a troubleshoot.

How are you getting the subid data? Are you clicking download optional info on the stats page? I had this problem too when I clicked on the subid report link and nothing was there. C.opeac is reverse they have the subid report but no optional info for me.

That was exactly it. Optional info, not subid stats.

Yeah, this confused the heck out of me too. Even though it's directtrack, it doesn't seem to show the subids under "subid stats." But it does under optional info.

Unfortunately, you only get the subids for your conversions, and not the rest of your clicks.

If there's a way around this, I'd be interested to hear it.

Also if you have landing pages with two offers per page, p202 can only track one offer per user. Uploading full revenue report .csv (which you get with Download Optional Info) is the only way to get around this.

You can also use an excel spreadsheet to create some sql statements to update the p202 database correctly with the correct payouts (ie user signed up for both offers instead of just 1, and you update the db with the proper combined payout for the two offers)

Bearded, DirectTrack allows two optional methods for passing Sub-Ids to a link. One way will allow all sub-ids to be passed on conversions only, not clicks. Using this method, you can add sub-ids to the link that looks something like this:

http://affiliates.ads4dough.com/sw/2280/601/subidhere. By simply adding a sub-id to the end of the string, this will pass the id through optional information and will be available on the 'Download Optional Information" report. By doing this, the sub-id will not be available in the Sub-ID stats report.

To utilize the sub-id specific functionality and pass sub-ids on every click.... you can add sub-ids by using this variable: &subid1= The example string would look something like this:

http://affiliates.ads4dough.com/sw/2280/601/&subid1=

By using this method, a sub-id will passed on every click and the web based report can be pulled on the 'Get Subid Stats' report.

I hope this helps.
