Additional information provided by
the affiliate
These can be used both in your own web pages, if you put them in a subdirectory along with a .htaccess
file as described above, and in your AShop templates, which makes it possible to personalize content
on the shopping cart pages, for example to show the customer how to contact the person who referred
them.
In addition to the above codes you can also define an unlimited number of your own codes, to let your
affiliate provide their own Facebook ID, MySpace URL, fax number, custom page header or any other
kind of content that can be added to a web page. These are entered by the affiliate on the Change Profile
page in the affiliate area.
