Hello
 
I want to know that if Viart supports adding a tracking URL from Shareasale.
 
I am a merchant at Shareasale. The affiliate gets signed up at Shareasale.
 
In order to track the sales of the affiliates, i have to insert a code at the Checkout Success page.
 
Is this possible in Viart.?

I actually heard from shareasale on this today, the code they sent was
 
<img src="https://shareasale.com/sale.cfm?amount=AMOUNTOFSALE&tracking=TRACKINGNUMBER&transtype=TYPEOFTRANSACTION&merchantID=XXXX" width="1" height="1">
 
so the real question is which screen to insert it into and are the needed variables passed to that screen? (block_checkout_final.html ?)

actually it looks like you can just put it in the message for the transaction complete part of the final checkout that comes from the payment system
 
http://www.viart.com/shopping_cart_final_checkout_page.html (the manual is a bit out of date on the looks...)
 
<img src="https://shareasale.com/sale.cfm?amount={goods_total}&tracking={order_id}&transtype=TYPEOFTRANSACTION&merchantID=XXXX" width="1" height="1">
 
the XXXX would be your SAS merchant number, I'm guessing 'typeoftransaction" would be SALE but would have to check woth SAS.
 
You'd need to do this for every type of payment/gateway that you use

Hello
 
ccberries,
did you any luck with implementing the shareasale code into Viart ?
 
Does it work ?

yep, no real problem, one thing to double check is that the generic code listed on the SAS website has the wrong type quotes.
 
The above (from 9/27) is correct, SAS takes care of the $ that viart sends in goods total by default.
 
The code gets added to the 'final checkout page" for each payment type used as part of the "on success" message, here is the actual code I'm using with my merchant number xxx'd out
<img src="https://shareasale.com/sale.cfm?amount={goods_total}&tracking={order_id}&transtype=sale&merchantID=xxxxx" width="1" height="1">
 
 
replace the xxx with your sas account number and it will work no problem.

did you get it all configured?
I sent SAS screen shots of the right place to put the SAS code to thier support & to be added to the SAS doc.

Not yet. I am still awaiting for v3.6 so that i can finally transfer my site to Viart.

Thanks for sending the detilas to SAS , this would really help those who wish to use SAS with Viart.
