    Hey, is there either a Wordpress plugin (preferred) or PHP script where I can create links (like domain.com/affiliate-xyz) and track the status of them (total incoming, last click, etc). I can't seem to know how to search for something like this on Google, as all of the results are to DISPLAY them, not CREATE them.

    it doesn't have to be very extensive, just a simple create-and-track. Thanks in advance.


    :cool: P.S.: If you help me find what I'm looking for, you'll get a free affiliate spot for a negotiable amount of time on a new site that I'm partnering on, which should launch within the month.

    It hasn't been updated since wordpress 2.5 but I find it still the best link cloaking and tracking software for wordpress there is.

    Ok, I installed it, but after activating it in the options, I just get a "Welcome" page, with nothing on it, nothing like the screenshot in the preview on WP Extend. And the domain has expired and leads to the GoDaddy landing page. So it appears this is dead, unless I did something wrong.

    Gotta make sure you enable the Tracking. Under its menu should be "Options" where you'll get a check box for "Activate Stats"

    But glad you found another one, I'm going to check it out too.

    I checked, changed, and added every option that I could (which wasn't much), yet it never shown. The fact that it's only officially recognized up to 2.5 might have something to do with it.

    But anyway, this plugin I'm using now is perfect, and exactly what I was looking for. It may not have extensive stats, but that doesn't matter much to me anyway. I just need to see which links get X-amount of clicks.
