widgets not working

[dvt]

To all users of 600x520 widgets, (std, merchant, themed, pop-up and j/script) check them now. There seems to be a problem with the widget dropping aff/id.
You will find that the widget will look fine, 4 products with links, if you click a link on the first page of the widget it will take you to the merchant site as normal. If you the turn to page 2 and click a link you are directed to a blank page. This happens on every 600x520 widget. Not sure if this affects any other sizes. Been told there could be a bug in the system but I have not heard anything more. One of my webmaster mates has the same problem so it is not an isolated case.
Anyone got anymore info.

Hi dvt,

We are aware of this problem and we are finding a solution as soon as possible. Development recently made some changes to the widgets and it seems that this bug must have occurred due to those changes.

I will update this thread when this has been solved.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Regards

As always with development, you write out one bug only to write in another 2. until eventually, you write out all possible bugs and rewrite in the first!

The vicious cycle of development. What fun it tends not to be!

Hi guys,

Very true Andy :D

I can confirm that that problem has been fixed now and that the affiliate ID is not being dropped when clicking through to the next page.

Thank you for your patience as we dealt with this matter.

Regards
