I installed and do NOT get this button. my theme does have an added plugin for a slider, which is in your location. is that the problem?



Codeshop Amazon Affiliate Plugin has a button 'CodeShop' which should be shown on your Wordpress regular Posts / Pages when you will add new posts / pages. The button 'CodeShop' shows above text-editor at the same line where you have Wordpress 'Add Media' button. 'CodeShop' button helps you to add / advertise Amazon products with your Wordpress regular Posts / Pages. The button should be shown as like image below -

I do not have a secret api key. I have an api key that was issued several years and computers ago, i no longer can find the secret code, and amazon no longer issues them I got one of their new codes, but that does not work either.
How do I use your widget?

As your first query you should see the 'CodeShop' button usually with your Wordpress admin area, that means after logged in as admin in your Wordpress dashboard when you add Wordpress regular posts/ pages using admin menu as Add new posts / pages then you should see the button 'CodeShop' usually as like image shown below of this doc page, though Codeshop Amazon Affiliate plugin has been tested all Wordpress 4.4+ versions, hope you are using any Wordpress version 4.4+ ,It should not conflict as you mentioned above as your first query. If using old versions of Wordpress then please upgrade your Wordpress version and check.

As your second query, you need to have some credentials to work the plugin described detail on settings doc page, and remember your locale / country you have created your associate tag and that country / locale should be set properly in your settings page, like if you have created associate tag for UK then you should set that country to work it, else it will not work with other locales. This Amazon forum topic can check if it helps.

To use widget you need to use your wordpress admin dashboard menu Appearance->Widgets , you should see 'Amazon Shop Categories' widget and you just drag and drop in your active sidebar, so your theme should have sidebar enabled / active then you can see all your added amazon products categories / subcategories into sidebar.

May be your secret credentials are not registered for amazon products advertising API. This youtube video will help you how to do this. And also this amazon forum topics will let you know more. Hope this will solve your problem, if you want to know more about Getting Started with Product Advertising API then check amazon docs

I have a WP blog site I am trying to monetize with amazon in some places.
I installed your widget that asks for account security credentials.
CodeShop Amazon Affiliate plugin.
I generated a priv/pub code in the AWS system and neither work.
do the role and user names have to reflect my wp id?

First you need to confirm your products advertising API credentials are working okay then you can add / advertise products with your Wordpress regular posts / pages. We have replied about how to retrieve your credentials properly for products advertising API here. When you put your credentials into CodeShop -> Settings page and after click on save button you will see ''Test Settings' button to test / check your credentials working okay or not, if you see success message after click on "Test Settings" button then you are ready to add / advertise amazon products with your Wordpress regular posts / pages.

I have installed your plugin into my wordpress. I followed all of the directions ... aws keys then amazon assoc id.... plugged them all in and then hit the save button... then test. The testing keeps failing and im not sure why. I have even created new secret keys thinking I put it in wrong but it still wont work.

What could be wrong with the setup?

Please also keep in mind you must select the right country for which you have registered or become an associate, say if you have signed up for US country then you select the US country from the Codeshop menu Settings page country selection drop down menu. So other countries will not work with your associate tag.

Forum Topic size of image 2 Comments
Posted By: politicsrecycled
Is there anyway to change the size of the image? I can not see it unless I do a page view after it is updated in draft. I looked at the code do not see any size - ie- dimensions like in in an 'iframe'. But I am not a programmer, so I may not know it if it is a different format, etc.
Is there a way? I would like to use this within content, but the image is way too big.

Posted By: CodeApple - Support
Usually main three basic image variations - 'SmallImage', 'MediumImage' and 'LargeImage' provided by amazon products API can be used in your templates, except 'product-one-column.php' template others are using 'MediumImage' size and one column template using 'LargeImage' size. So under the folder 'amazonshop-templates' in your codeshop amazon affiliate plugin directory or if you moved under your theme directory (recommended cause plugin upgrade into new version will not remove your customizations) you need to see all template files showing products - 'product-four-columns.php' , 'product-three-columns.php', 'product-two-columns.php' and 'product-one-column.php' open those files and you should find names as index parameters 'SmallImage', or 'MediumImage' or 'LargeImage' , so you can change which one you want to use as your image size, so if you want to replace 'MediumImage' size with 'SmallImage' size then template files you are using you need to open that and replace all 'MediumImage' name with 'SmallImage', be careful about index parameters names cause they are case sensitive, should be same mentioned here else can break your image display, and also you can change corresponding style-sheets to display images to work perfectly with your running theme which can be found under at 'amazonshop-templates/assets/css' directory.

More about template customizations are explained on documentation

Forum Topic A few questions help please 2 Comments

Hello. Just downloaded your plugin and it seems a good fit for my site. I will gladly donate if this plugin if it suits my needs and also if it is updated periodically.

First, the page https://www.thosecrazyvegans.net/amazon-product-shop
I want to change it to store, both the URL https://www.thosecrazyvegans.net/store and the title. However, whenever I do this, it keeps reverting back to Amazon Product Shop and creating a new store page with nothing on it. How to fix this to get my store page at https://www.thosecrazyvegans.net/store to work?

Secondly, I would like the categories available on the store page as a menu or something so the users can click on a category they wish. How to do this?

Thirdly, in the same store page https://www.thosecrazyvegans.net/store, I would like to edit the title and image size of the item. How to do this?

Forth, is there a way for my registered site users to buy all the products they wish without leaving my site and to add all those products to Amazon shopping cart and after finishing, have them go and finalized their order through Amazon? It seems every product they click (on my site) to purchase, redirects them to Amazon. Is there any way to keep them on our site while they shop until they are ready to pay? Thanks

Thanks for your interest about the plugin.
https://www.thosecrazyvegans.net/amazon-product-shop , where 'amazon-product-shop' is page slug which should be unique according to wordpress, so we did make this page slug during installation so it can be unique and does not conflict with other plugins using short page slugs like 'shop', 'store' etc. But you can change the page title 'Amazon Shop' what you want through wordpress dashboard 'Pages' menu. You can set the amazon shop product page as your homepage where slug 'amazon-product-shop' will not be shown ( docs here https://codeapple.net/codeshop-amazon-affiliate/documentation/codeshop-homepage ).

You can show all your categories ( products are added to those categories ) through 'Amazon Shop Categories' widget at Dashboard Appearance-> Widgets. You can check https://www.codeapple.net/amazonshop/ where all product categories are shown at right sidebar.

About your last query we didn't add yet cart system so where users can add products and when they want to pay will be redirected to amazon to by one or more products together, we have plan in future to add this features.

We will update few more features soon.
If you want more customized solutions of plugin to suit as you want with your website then you may contact directly at our support https://codeapple.net/support/

OK, the amazon shop or home page is drab and blank and there is no way to edit it so. Why did you do that. Can't add anything to it

You need to add products then you can see your products at homepage ( If you set the amazon shop as your homepage ) or with posts you have added products. Here the documentation how to add products https://codeapple.net/codeshop-amazon-affiliate/ you can know detail.
