I noticed earlier today a link I put up to fasttech wasn't working, giving up strange error from sharesale.com. At first I thought it was my pc because if you copy & paste link it worked, I am not affiliate of sharesale so it got me wondering if pc was infected or something, after doing scans (anti-virus, malwarebytes) and them coming up clean it puzzled me more. I have now been through forum and clicked at least a dozen fasttech links from various members and all get same error
Is this forum's or proboards new way of raising funds? either way it would have been nice to be warned, it would have saved me hours scanning pc etc thinking problem was my end

Hi Fiddles, it's something we noticed a while back. Everytime you click on a Fastech link it's directed through Shareasale. It's nothing to do with the forum, but Proboards themselves.

Sorry you wasted so much time fiddles Unfortunately as it's a Proboards affiliation, I wont be able to solve the problem with the links myself.

Doesn't work for me Chrissie . . . wonder if this one does. www.fasttech.com/products/1370201Edit to say: Yes it does, for me anyway . . . I was signed into my account if that makes any difference.

So it does Chrissie . . . I'm just as confused though. Still it's working that's the main thing . . . perhaps they were updating the share thingwee?

They work for me as well, BUT it does redirect through shareasale first, whether that redirect is successful will depend on your web browser, it's probably a way ProBoards makes revenue through eCommerce websites.

I've just seen that all Fastech links on ECF are now going through shareasale as well.
