The theme is very simple, and should be easy to change or use as a template for something a bit more complex.

Download Amazon Affiliate Linker Plugin

Once downloaded and activated, the plugin needs to be configured by going to Settings -> Amazon Affiliate Linker menu item. In this page you can set your Amazon Affiliate ID and whether you want the link to be no-followed or to onen in a new window.

To embed an Amazon link with the plugin, the text for the link needs to be embedded in the following tags:

This will link to Amazon.com with a product ASIN of 12345678. At present, the asin tag needs to be lower case.

For example, if I wanted to link to ProBlogger: Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income, I would get the ASIN for it’s from Amazon.com URL:

I would then embed the ASIN into into a post like this:

Which would produce a link like this:

[asin=0470246677]Secrets for Blogging Your Way to a Six-Figure Income[/asin]

The attributes for the link are configured in the plugin administration and has my Amazon Affiliate ID embedded into it.

I have tested the link generation and there seem to be no problems with clicks being registered in the Amazon Associates stats report and I have tested the generated links in the Amazon Associate Link Checker.
