WooCommerce Cloak Affiliate Links Plugin

The WooCommerce Cloak Affiliate Links plugin allows you to mask all external links in your WooCommerce store.

For example, change this…
merchant.com/index.php?aff_id=123&product_id=456

… into this:
yoursite.com/go/123

Configure the status code for the redirect to either 301, 302 or 307.

The plugin also adds a “Disallow” to your robots.txt file to prevent bots from following those external links.

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Upload the woocommerce-cloak-affiliate-links folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
2. Activate the WooCommerce Cloak Affiliate Links plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Configure the plugin by going to Settings > WC Cloak Links.
