#1008944: uc_affiliate2 port to Drupal 7

Release notes

uc_affiliate2 is now in maintenance mode. There hasn't been a release in a long time, so here's one including the bug fixes accumulated in CVS.

-- #801304 by darktygur: "Only products with a node type of 'product' ever show up when an affiliate tries to generate links"
-- #816422 by tinker: "Affiliate form appears in all categories of user profile information"
-- #820052 by AlexisWilke: "E_ALL in link with Actions (CA)"
-- Refined the way we enter order comments (on commission add/remove)
-- #791966 by darktygur & bojanz: "Set a default affiliate link type"
-- Fixed the exclusion of products (by setting the commission to "0")
-- #824066 by bojanz: "Add link to Customer Page in Reports page"
-- #829276 by bojanz: Non-Existant Users Still Appear (Incorrectly) in Affiliate Reports
-- Refactored the click registering code. No longer need to redirect on ?a links.
-- #932742 by univate: Fixed Affiliate tokens not being set.
-- #898882 by darktygur: "commission percentage for this user" calculated at fixed rate, not percentage

Release notes

This should be the final release for Drupal 5.
No new development will be done in the Drupal 5 branch (other than quick fixes maybe...)

-- translation updates (some strings weren't translatable)
-- Reimplemented the uc_affiliate2_clicks function.
-- updated the commission removal routines, we don't try to remove commissions that aren't there anymore :)
-- simplified the admin_users form code ( for amounts paid to the affiliate). Thanks to freakalis for the tip
-- we are now compatible with PostgreSQL. Thanks to Chris (cjscullyca) for his fixes
-- fixes to the code we use to generate timestamps and get records from the db. Should be problem free now.
-- the affiliate url now uses user id's instead of names. Old urls still supported, of course. Thanks to lonehorseend.
-- add support for customizable affiliate URL schemes (by jjeff)
-- support for disabling commission for certain payment methods (which means we work with uc_free_order in the mix).
-- added support for "ignoring" a product (exclude from generated links, calculated commission) by setting it's commission to 0.
-- fix for "affiliate code generation user issue" (allow generating links for users other than the current one)
-- fixed error in Downline when ordering by Level (disabled, not possible for now)

Release notes

Changes since rc5:

-- the commission was added twice when changing between "award" statuses.
-- don't remove the original admin comment when taking away commissions. Add another one instead.
-- don't try to link to an anonymous user's profile page in the "All orders" tab
-- added an update entry to .install, to remove some (harmless) junk from uc_affiliate2_orders next time update.php is run.
-- to prevent upgrade issues, made a change to the "award" statuses on the settings page. You'll have to select them again.
-- fixed a warning on new installs.
-- affiliate redirects now issue 301 headers on redirect. More SEO friendly.
-- don't remove a click from the count when removing comissions
-- added a more detailed unique clicks view, displaying user ip, if the cookie was set, etc.
-- getting the affiliate id from the cookie doesn't require a trip to the DB anymore.
-- you can now use the product title ([TITLE]) in link templates. [Thanks omerida]
-- fixed a bug in the role handling

Release notes

This should be the final one.
Fixed the "counts table does not exist" admin error.

Release notes

- The clicks weren't getting registered in many cases, bug introduced in 1.7

Release notes

New:
-- you can now select multiple statuses for which to award commissions.
-- cancelling an order ( or changing from an "award" status) will now remove the commission.
-- removed the counts table, running live queries now. Less bug-prone.
-- added the "all orders" tab to the affiliate dashboard. Shows all orders by status created with the affiliate's id.
-- bugfixes,

Upgrading from 2.0-rc1 and 2.0-rc2:
- You must resave your affilite settings for the commission cancellation to work
- Commission cancellation (for previously added orders) might leave incorrect admin counters, because of a earlier time&date bug
- The orders counter works only for orders added after the upgrade
- The "All orders" tab shows only the orders added after the upgrade.
- Be sure to run update.php!
