FSB problem...

[icoslaw]

Hi guys did someone noticed... that there was for example XXXX checkouts but its no click in you amazon??

i found someting like this:
when i added somthing to cart on dinosaursforkids.co.uk and done checkout... im getting something like in web addres:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/cart/aws-merge.html?cart-id=280-4972023-9592031&associate-id=fa21-21 ....................

where id=fa21-21 its not my id... i think its problem why i m not getting click on amazon

its on all my sites this id=fa21-21 ...


only gymgloves.org.uk im getting my real id after checkouts... and im getting sales + click on my amazon....


any idea???
what's that id=fa21-21? ?????

It's the default settings from FSB.

You need to ensure you've added the site URL to your account at FSB before populating with products.

Then delete the cache, it should sort then and show your Amazon ID.

Otherwise orders will go to the FSB Amazon ID.

PS: Take a look here onwards.

I believe it can sometimes take a while to update from their server?

See post link above too for quick 'n dirty MySQL fix.

So with FSB does your web site have to connect to fsb for it to work.

Or is it just the software you install on your own server and it connects direct to amazon api.

FSB checking licence... so you need to add all your website (shops) in your fsb panel ...
if you forgot about this or... dont have licence ... all earnings will go to FSB ;P

Man, half my stores are affected by this, probably lost a lot of commission

People seriously, start reading instructions how much money do u think you have most by now, only takes 2 mins to find out if you got your store up correctly by reading it

I did read the instructions, the first time I set a store up, but then I just did it off memory there forward. Looking through them, I over exaggerated when I said half, all in maybe 5 of my 20 stores where affected. The worst one was my most trafficked, where I'd registered the plural with FSB instead of the singular. Schoolboy by me, but I don't think it would harm to put something in the admin console to say so.

Still can't get my head around FSB but so many knowledgeable people seem to be using it my ignorance is maybe costing me money by not having it.

Just to clarify if anyone knows.

If FSB goes down and your licence can't be read. Does that mean your stores don't work. Or are all the links and licence validated only once and then your safe type of thing.

As long as you add site URL once to customer area Caz before populating with products, AFAIK you're then fine with your Amazon ID showing.

Oh hang on, Carey posted about this here - calls back to server every 2-5 days.
