Amazon.com "Quick-Click Buying Links" — Critical Problem
Who should read this?
All webmasters using our Associate Engine script (ae.pl).
What's the problem and how to identify it?
It has recently come to the attention of Amazon.com and associates that Amazon.com's "Quick-Click Buying Links" buttons are not working properly.
Here's how you can quickly identify if you are using "Quick-Click Buying Links" buttons or standard "Buy from Amazon.com" buttons on your Associate Engine webpages:
"Quick-Click Buying Links" button
Standard "Buy from Amazon.com" button
Affected by problem
Working properly
Note: The default configuration of Associate Engine is to use standard "Buy from Amazon.com" buttons. Thus most Associate Engine webmasters will not be affected by the problem.
When the user clicks a "Quick-Click Buying Links" button, a pop-up window with an "Add to Shopping Cart" button successfully appears; however, when the user clicks on the "Add to Shopping Cart" button, Amazon.com returns an error page saying, "Looking for something? We're sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site. Go to Amazon.com's Home Page". The item was not added to the shopping cart, and it is not known if the affiliate ID was tracked.
Where's the problem?
Amazon.com has confirmed that the problem is at the Amazon.com servers. Amazon.com technical staff is investigating the problem.
The problem is not in the Associate Engine software or any other
AWS-based software from other developers.Amazon.com needs to fix the problem on their servers.
What should webmasters do?
If you see:
then edit your ae.ini configuration file and set addto.quickclick to no
Once Amazon.com fixes the problem, you can set addto.quickclick back to yes if you want.
If you see:
then you do not have to do anything since standard "Buy from Amazon.com" button are not affected by the problem and work properly.
Any more information?
To read about the problem, see the thread on the Amazon.com discussion forum.
