After hours and hours off searching the web I found a simple but improvised solution to track my sales...

Short explenation: I downloaded a simple affiliate program here:

http://www.qualityunit.com/postaffiliate/

installed it as the simple installationfile said.

used navicat (navicat.com) to online check my tables were all clicks are logged with ip adresses.

Checked my orders tables and made a query for what orders have the same IP as the clickthrough table.

Voila now you can see where the clicks come from, and you can see what orders contains the same IP, basically you now have the same basic feature as a basic affiliate progeam.

Although this probably suits best for users with online database menagement, best thing would be to download both clickthrougs and order table, to make query locally.

PS! Joomla/Virtuemart dont "appretiate" cookies in this program, so you have to clean out all the lines that contain cookie information in the included php files...

Hope it may help others too

Yup, I am using Post Affiliate Pro with Virtuemart (PayPal & 2CO) now. They're working fine.

HI I tried your solution and able to get the clicks but when it comes to getting sales it takes you to another page and does not enter sales. I have edited the check1.php file and able to manage to get the sales. I placed the code on thank you page of virtuemart and it was not displaying the thank you page at all but it is registering the sale. But this is not appropriate as users need to see the thank you page. I think it is something to do with cookies. You said on the previous post that need to take out all the cookies related taxt from include php file . Can you be more precise which file and code that need to be taken off. Thank you

question:
i tried affiliate ext for virtuemart, calculate % from sales, but they calculate % from sales by paypal even if the sales is not confirmed, it means, they give the commission when a user finish buy but didn't finish the payment process.
how is your experience with this issue?
