Coupon Affiliates – Version 4.14.2 – Affiliate Registration Improvements!

Version 4.14.2 of Coupon Affiliates for WooCommerce is now available!

This update includes some improvements to the “affiliate registration” system, as well as a few other tweaks and fixes.

Generate Coupon Code Automatically

A new option has been added to disable the “preferred coupon code” field on the affiliate registration form, and instead generate a coupon name automatically.

When enabled, you can customise the format of the coupon code that will be generated, with custom text and merge tags.

Take a look at the settings here:

Manual Admin Registrations

A new “Create New Registration” button is available on the admin “registrations” page, to manually create/submit an affiliate registration for a user yourself, easily in the admin area.

Checkout Page: Join Affiliate Program

A new option has been added to show a “join our affiliate program” checkbox on the store checkout when creating an order, for non-affiliate users.

This will only show if the user does not already have an affiliate coupon assigned to them. They must also be logged in, or have the “Create an account?” checkbox checked for it to show.

Here’s a look at the settings:

Admin Users List: “Affiliate Coupons” column

Added a new “Affiliate Coupons” column to the WordPress users list.

This will show all the coupons assigned to the user, with a tooltip showing unpaid commission, dashboard link, edit link, and a link to unassign/remove the users from the coupon.

• Added a “Affiliate Users” admin menu item under “Coupon Affiliates”, if registrations is enabled with the “Coupon Affiliates” user role.
• Added new option to set custom text for the “Submit Application” button on the affiliate registration form.
