      Hi there

      Is there a thread or page that deals specifically with tracking external links?
      How will I be able to show to affiliates that a sale originated on my site?

      Thanks

      Sorry, there is no such page by default.

      I would like to know how WCfM tracks external links and whether I need to add some kind of string to the URL, or Analytics code to pages or use cookies in order to show to the affiliate when sales have originated from my site. How does one track the user’s behavior from my site up to the point where they make a purchase on the vendor’s site?

      ..or am I missing something? Is this not what the plugin is meant to be doing?

      NO, it’s not for tracking user behavior!
