Is there a way to add a "Hidden" affiliate payout?
Example, I have "clients" who provide content for my site, and if someone buys via their affiliate ID, I want to give them 50% payout, where as regular affiliates only earn 20%. However, I don't want the regular affiliates to be able to see this "hidden" commission level.
I found the "Special affiliate commision categories", and this "almost" does what I'm looking for, however, here's what happens with this,
1. I add a regular payout structure for 20%. In the affiliate stats area / commission category section, it displays 20%.
2. I go back and add the "Special commission" set to 50% payout. In the affiliate stats area / commission category section, (for a regular user), it displays a 50% payout now, instead of the regular 20%.
I have a feeling it's not supposed to do this. However, IF this is supposed to happen, is there a way to make the "special" categories totally hidden from regular affiliates?
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
