AWIN Data feed

[orchardapple]

Got a domain i'm working on that currently only uses the awin content widgets but now looking to go one better and use the awin data feed, more products, less manual work for linking etc question is i'm using wordpress so what do i need to do to get the data feed working correctly???

which plugin is needed????

 

[accelerator]

I don't use it but I know of this one:

http://www.matboo.co.uk/2009/04/02/csv-to-wordpress-post-v2-released/

There are lots of other options for data feed integration too.

im using 30 Second Affiliate Blitzkrieg on sextoys-r-us.co.uk

you have to fiddle around with the csv feed in excel but it works fine.

http://www.easycontentunits.com/ is another option to try you can pull products from most affiliate networks as well

The category imports never work on the importers for some reason. I tried to get one working but gave up.

What I did was edit the code so it inserted the categories as tags and then used to tags to category converter to convert them.

My current importer is quite advanced now but buggered if I can get categories to work

thats where i find myself at the mo, keep messing up and annoying me.

Any other recommendations for feed scripts?

Its not free but you might want to take a look at datafeedr as well

i'm quite happy to review the paid versions to, just looking for something easy to use that can be quite scalable on many sites, not wanting to mess about with the source data to much etc

I am using datafeedr, its very straightforward.

The downside is the price, find it a bit too expensive especially for minisites with low sales volumes.

If anyone wants a 10 percent discount code please send me a pm.

Cheers

you should look into the web services to be honest,a nd then never worry about importing any feeds

datafeedr not quite what i was looking for, not going to be spending $27 a month for sure

keep the recommendations coming, looking for a standalone script to integrate into wordpress

did take a peek at the and tbh prob a little too early for that, i'm in early days of the affiliate side of things so am looking to build rather than have the generate a certain affiliate income

anyone use this service though??

 

[stevebrowne]

I use the web services, but not in Wordpress. I might add a Wordpress widget to my list of things to do.

i find that if you put a dummy post in each category before you import it works fine.
