Inserting Linkcodes in Affiliate Email
Insert the following line to insert an affiliate's linkcode into an email.
{$nats_code[program][site]}
Replace program with a program's ID number. Replace site with a site's ID number. If the affiliate isn't in the program you provide, the code will not be printed.
You can also test for the linkcode in an if statement:
{if $nats_code[p][s]}
statements
{/if}
Formatting:
If the links you are sending have a direct page to link to the following would be used to pass the nats code correctly without breaking the link
http://www.mynats.com/this/is/my/FHG.php?nats={if $nats_code[p][s]}{$nats[p][s]}{else}{*a default natscode*}{/if}
If the links you are sending do not have a direct page to link to and only a path, you will need to do the following:
http://www.mynats.com/this/is/my/FHG/?nats={if $nats_code[p][s]}{$nats[p][s]}{else}{*a default natscode*}{/if}
