Can't ad link to image ad

I figured out how to change the image ads that came with the theme demo content, but I can’t figure out how to add the affiliate links.

When editing with TagDiv Composer, I put the links where it says “Ad url”. However, when I clear the cache and then go to a post and click on my new ad image, nothing happens. I’m taken to the top of the article. This happens to all image ads in all locations.

I’m sure the solution is simple, I just can’t figure it out.

All help is greatly appreciated 🙂

Hi Bettina 🙂

I understand that there can only be one link per image. I would have attached images in my previous request, however, they would look exactly like your own examples in your theme documentation that you already have. Therefore, I really need to explain the problem.

When I originally imported the demo content for the theme, it included your ads for your theme. I simply went into the tagDiv Composer editor and replaced your ad images with my own. I also added the affiliate links where they are supposed to be added according to your own theme documentation. The problem is that the affiliate links do not save. I have cleared the cache and cookies, etc., and still there is no saving of the affiliate links. So, when I click on the image ads, all that happens is that the page refreshes.

I am assuming that there is something else that needs to be done before the affiliate links will save and work correctly (maybe in the theme settings?) however I did not see anything in the theme documentation.

Hi Bettina 🙂

Actually, you can see the problem for yourself by going to your own “Gourmet Pro” theme, which is the one I downloaded my demo content from. If you hover over every single ad image you have in your theme, you will see that the ad “link” is to what ever page you are viewing the ad on. To replicate my problem, simply go into your settings of the “Gourmet Pro” theme and try to change/create the affiliate link for just one of your image ads.

That is how it is in my theme. I have done everything properly, according to your documentation, and saved it and cleared the cache, but the image ad will ONLY link to whatever page it is viewable on. And when I go back into the settings, the link is always gone as if I never input it in the first place.

YAAASSS! That worked! The affiliate links didn’t have the “/” at the very end… Thank you so much!
