Backs on your Blog

If you would like to install the backs button on your WordPress blog we've tried to make things as easy as possible for you. Either install the plugin or add a line of javascript to your posts or templates and the button will magically appear.

Installing the WordPress Plugin

This is pretty simply really:

1. Just get the latest version of the a4uBacks.php plugin here unzip and place in the plugins directory of your WordPress installation. Typically this is '/wp-content/plugins' but this may vary between installations and versions of the software.
2. Go to your admin section and choose the Plugins menu option. You should see the plugin 'a4uBacks' listed. Activate this plugin by clicking the 'Activate' link on the right.

To add the "back me up" button to your blog articles make sure you add this code to the loop part of your templates.

The templates you are most likely to need to edit are:

1. index.php - This will show the button with each item on your front page
2. single.php - When viewing a single post

Installing the Javascript Button

An alternative way of doing the same thing and getting the 'back me up' button on your blog is to include a small javascript line of code.

Just add this line of javascript to the page that is displaying the blog item in full.

The template you are most likely to need to edit in WordPress is 'single.php'

This line of code can infact be added to any kind of blog page. As long as the page is the same as the one we're linking to on affiliates4u the code should work just fine.

It should be noted that due to some server configurations this option might not work correctly as some servers hide the refering page address, making it impossible for us to know the source of your blog. Therefore we recommend the Plugin option above as the most reliable way of adding backs to your blog.
