OK, followed the video on ShareASale datafeed file, imported into excel OK, uploaded into plugin OK, worked through the template setup, then find out that headings or images do not have clickable links - <a></a>
The datafeed files from ShareASale do not have any code links only website links - so the question is how the f**k is this process done?

Where are the video tutorials or even a pdf guide? The more I look at this plugin the more I see holes in it's design, is there a money back guarantee?

Since you didn't post your template, I can't tell you what you did wrong. Shareasale most certainly does have clickable links. don't use quotes in your anchor tags, just field names.

The datafeed files from ShareASale do not have any code links only website links - so the question is how the f**k is this process done?

That's a per vendor option. Choose a vendor with a datafile that doesn't suck, or contact their affiliate manager and request the data be added. I do this all the time, it just takes minimal effort.

Where are the video tutorials or even a pdf guide? The more I look at this plugin the more I see holes in it's design, is there a money back guarantee?

You need a guide for this? It's super easy and nothing more than a general goal for a site is needed. There are zero holes in it's design. I paid cash for a 2009 Tahoe last month with the equivalent earnings from a single site I did in February this year. Your conceptualization needs to be reasonable before you start throwing data at a website.

I appreciate the offer to communicate via your AIM but I did work it out OK

I used the template to add links to the heading and images:

<a href="[link]">[name]</a> - in the title text box

<a href="[link]"><img src="[image]"></a> for a link to the image

When I checked a number of ShareASale's datafeeds it seemed they were all without actual hyperlinks included in the files, the above seems to be the best solution.

Glad you recognized that there can be HTML in the posts.

Just don't use quotes around the [field] tags and you should be golden.

We have a seminar this afternoon for 2 hours if anyone wants to chat about template strategies.
