  • Affiliate plugin for WP-ecommerce

    Since Shayne has spent so much time helping people out in the WP e-Commerce user’s forum, it’s no surprise that we receive a steady stream of requests for people looking to enhance their online store. One of the requests we get the most is from people who would like to pay affiliates to drive traffic to their site. With no real solution available, we did what any enthusiastic development team would do; we built it!

    Introducing the Affiliate Plugin for WP e-Commerce

    The Affiliate Plugin makes it simple to sign up and manage affiliates for your online store. You can easily set the payout amount (flat rate or % of sale) per affiliate, add custom banners and text links with unique tracking codes, view stats and more.

    We didn’t forget about your affiliates. They will have the ability to get their unique tracking links and see their traffic and earnings stats.

    Drop Thesis For Half Price

    With the licensing controversy between WordPress and the Thesis theme, there are a lot of users having to rethink what theme they want to use for their WordPress site. Matt Mullenweg has made an open invitation to purchase a GPL compliant theme for anyone wanting to move away from Thesis. As part of the WordPress community we would like to do our part and offer to install and modify a new GPL compliant theme for half price*!

    What does this mean? It means….if you want rid of Thesis and want to give your site a whole new look, we’ll do the conversion for you for half price*!

    If you’re interested in keeping your site’s existing look and still want a conversion, then you can visit our friends at WebDevStudios where they have a sale for that running currently.

    So, let us know how we can help you get converted to a GPL compliant theme and we’ll happily do it for half price*.

    *Half price offer is good for conversions from Thesis themes only. GPL compliant theme must be provided and is not included in discounted rate. Prices may vary depending on complexity of site design. This offer ends Saturday, July 31st at midnight, Pacific time.

    Next stop, WordCamp Boulder

    I'm Sponsoring WordCamp Boulder 2010Last year I had the great pleasure of attending WordCamp Denver and am very excited to be heading back to Colorado for round two! But this time, WordCamp has moved up the road to Boulder, CO. This year I won’t just be attending, but we are also one of the sponsors of the event!

    Last year the guys at Crowd Favorite put together a great collection of speakers, and this year is no different. Have a look at the list of speakers, and then go register to attend! There are less than 100 tickets left, so get on it!

    I also wanted to send a big ‘ol THANKS to the guys at Crowd Favorite for moving the event from February to July. As beautiful as it was to see everything covered in snow, I’m sure the place will be just as beautiful without the snow.

    See you there!
