Description
With the affilinet WordPress Product Widget Plugin publishers can integrate Product Widgets, configured via the affilinet Influencer WebExtension, easily via drag and drop into posts or sidebar – all of this without touching any ad code snippet.
Usage
To use the Product Widgets and to integrate them into your website, you need to fill in publisher id and webservice password in the settings page of the plugin.
You have different options for Product Widget usage in your WordPress blog.
Page panel or page footer
For integration in the page panel select Appearance -> Widgets in the side navigation, select the affilinet widget and move it whether per drag and drop to the website areas (page footer/page panel) or select the area and click “Add Widget”!
Open the affilinet Widgets, select one of the offered widgets – you previously configured in the affilinet Influencer WebExtension – in the dropdown and save your settings.
Intext placement
For intext-placements go to the article editor and open the article you want to integrate a Product Widget. Click on the area in the text and select the affilinet widget from menu bar dropdown. Save your settings!
The Product Widget will appear in your text in the visual display.
You can see the results how they will look like in page pre-view.
