Actinic and Overture/Yahoo Conversion Data

[ASMO]

Hi all, hope you can help.
I hate playing with the templates as I just don't understand them. However, there comes a times when we all have to do something we don't like doing.

For me it is to use the Conversion Data with Overture/Yahoo to show what sales I get from using this search engine.

I have had a look at all the sales pages and can't make head or tails of where I should put the script to make it work.

Can anyone help.
The script that Overture suggests putting in (without my account info), is:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Overture Services Inc. 07/15/2003
var cc_tagVersion = "1.0";
var cc_accountID = "**********";
var cc_marketID = "1";
var cc_protocol="http";
var cc_subdomain = "convctr";
if(location.protocol == "https:")
{
cc_protocol="https";
cc_subdomain="convctrs";
}
var cc_queryStr = "?" + "ver=" + cc_tagVersion + "&aID=" + cc_accountID + "&mkt=" + cc_marketID +"&ref=" + escape(document.referrer);
var cc_imageUrl = cc_protocol + "://" + cc_subdomain + ".overture.com/images/cc/cc.gif" + cc_queryStr;
var cc_imageObject = new Image();
cc_imageObject.src = cc_imageUrl;
// -->
</SCRIPT>

I appreciate your help.

Louise,

I would suggest downloading the Advanced Users Guide from here. Take a look on page 73 for "Supporting an Affiliate Program with Actinic Ecommerce".

If you run a search on the forum for 'Affiliate' you should come up with several threads discussing this topic in detail.

Kind regards,

Thanks for that, I shall have a look although I think I have cracked it now. I had a look through the forum and found a couple of entries regarding Google Adwords which looks pretty similar. The code is slightly different, but I can handle that. I think I have put it in the right place, but it apparently takes a few days before the figures start showing up on Overture, so I am just waiting now. I have had some orders so know there should be some data.

I will keep you posted.
