Create new WordPress pages or posts and insert the provided shortcodes or blocks for individual advertisments.

Automatic syncs so catalog updates appear on your site without manual work.

Sync & Scheduling Tips (COMING SOON)

Run an initial manual sync after connecting to confirm credentials.
Use cron-based syncing for production sites; WP-Cron is adequate for smaller blogs.
Enable email alerts inside the plugin to be notified of sync failures or API auth issues.
Keep permalink structures simple (/blog/%postname%) to ensure landing pages match affiliate tracking.
If you rotate affiliate API keys, update the plugin immediately to avoid 401 errors.

Troubleshooting Checklist

Verify your hosting allows outbound HTTPS requests to affiliate.dragonzap.com/api/v1.
Confirm the Affiliate API key has the products:read and promotions:read scopes.
Flush WordPress permalinks if shortcode pages return 404 errors.
Reach out to support with the timestamp of the failure and recent log entries.
