I currently exclusively own the link cloaking script which is available
from redirect magic dot com (remove the spaces).
Download the free script will give you more of an idea of the
complexity of the work and see the source code.
You can also take a look at a working example at:
affiliate redirect ur dot com /Recommends/ magic /
admin/password
(please do not change. If doesn't work, pm me and I'll give you the new one)
Once the below changes are complete, the setup process should be changed to reflect the new database setup.
1. Javascript and PHP check to make sure that only allowed characters are used in Link Code. - should NOT be allowed for the reason described later on in (8).
2. There should be an option for the admin to add embedded links to a link. For example, if someone visits:
affiliate redirect ur dot com /Recommends/ link1
Then they should be able to also embed other links so that any cookies which are dropped by the additional links (from now on called cloaked links) are dropped onto the user.
As there are different Link Types (see admin of script), this will need to be done in two different ways:
a. Cloak
When the visitor comes to this cloak or frame page, the additional cloaked links will be put in the framed page via an invisible javascript popup or an iframe.
b. Redirect
In the scenario where the admin is using a redirect link without cloak but wants to embed other links, then an intermediate frame page will be needed with a meta-redirect whilst the additional cookies are dropped
In both of these cases, there should be an option within the GUI to be able to add unlimited cloaked links. I see a way where this can be done fairly easily
3. When creating the Link Type cloak, have the ability to control the text which appears in the title bar of the browser and put in meta description and keywords.
4. Have the option of launching an additional url as a popup/popunder/exitpopup to the target url. Ideally, would want the ability to have multiple.
5. The ability to order the List of Link Codes on the admin page by date or link code. Asc and desc
6. Extra fields on the Link Codes for admin to add: Affiliate Login URL, Username, Password
7. Ability to easily export data to csv file
8. Ability for subcampaigns to be dynamically created depending on the url which the visitor visits.
For example:
A visitor could visit any of the following links:
affiliate redirect ur dot com /Recommends/ link1-campain1
affiliate redirect ur dot com /Recommends/ link1-campain2
affiliate redirect ur dot com /Recommends/ link1-campain3
Although the campaigin subids were not previously created in the database, the script will recognize that the visitor has visited a particular subcampaign. Therefore on the stats page for that campaign, the subcampaign stats will also be reflected.
To be clear, by adding -campaignname to the end of the url, the script recognizes that this is a subcampaign. If necessary, you can decide a different code that -campaignname if need be.
9. Referring back to (2), the ability to instead of embedding all of the listed cloaked links, to randomly embed one of them.
10. When a Link Code is created, also give the Javascript necessary so that someone can embed that code directly onto their page.
If I have listed anything above which is unclear or simply undoable then please let me know. I am fairly flexible on the spec if need be.
Please note:
- all payments will be made by escrow. Happy to pay in stages if desired.
- would appreciate a PM either before or after bidded to ensure that project is understood.
