Commission not recorded in my Admin panel

[designstyleguide]

I tried the affiliate link after I added the code to our PayPal button. It showed the link as clicked, but it did not record any sales or commissions.

There is some logic in the affiliate payment processor about extracting an affiliate ID from the posted paypal data. It looks like the process is using the “custom” variable that we used to use and had to give up for elitus. Currently the custom variable is set to a literal xp_pp_custom. I do not know how the script exchanges that value for an affiliate ID.

Do you have any instructions for altering the paypal buttons? Do we add these values to our paypal buttons but change the custom variable?

Thanks,
