## Beschrijving

Need larger images than the default 160px images that Amazon gives you when
 you
create an affiliate link?

Adds a tab to the WordPress media manager that allows you to get links to images

from the Amazon Advertising API to use in your posts.

Part of the agreement when
 you sign up with Amazon for access to their Advertising
API is that you will only use it for affiliate marketing their site so you will 
likely be linking these images to Amazon. This plugin doesn’t actually create the
links so you’ll still need to do that.

#### Usage

Once activated, the Amazon Images plugin adds a tab to the media manager.

When editing a post or page click on the media manager link and then on the Amazon

Images tab. There will be a field to enter the ASIN of the product you’d like images
for. Enter the ASIN and your affiliate tag, if you haven’t set the default in the
plugin settings, and press Get Images. Through Ajax, the plugin will connect to 
Amazon and get the links for you.

#### Thanks

This plugin uses the [Amazon-ECS-PHP-Library](https://github.com/Exeu/Amazon-ECS-PHP-Library/)

to handle the SOAP requests.

## Installatie

 1. Upload the `amazon-images` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory or install
    directly through WordPress.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress

#### Settings

 1. Once activated there will be an Amazon Images tab under the Settings menu
 2. Enter your Amazon API Key and API Secret on that page
 3. The default affiliate tag is optional, but you will need to to include a tag when
    retrieving images
 4. Check which sized images you would like to link

## FAQ

  What do I need to get this working?

You will need an account with Amazon for their [Product Advertising API](https://affiliate-program.amazon.com/gp/advertising/api/detail/main.html).
When you register and login you will have a
 public and secret key. You’ll need 
to enter these on the Amazon Images plugin options page to be able to get image 
information.

You will also need an affiliate tag, although if you’re looking at this plugin you
likely
 already have one of these.

  Why not just save the files?

The user agreement for the Amazon API allows you to store images for up to 24 hours.
So rather
 than storing the images on your server this plugin links directly to 
the image at Amazon.

During the import the images are temporarily downloaded so that WordPress can work
with the
 actual file to get size information. But the images are deleted immediately
afterwards so they’re not on your server for more than a few seconds.

  So, they’re hotlinked?

Yes.

The links are retrieved using the Advertising API, so presumably you are using the
images to
 link to content on Amazon and maybe including your affiliate tag with
the link.

  What about non-US affiliates?

Currently the plugin pulls images from the US Amazon site. It should work outside
the US, but
 living in the US I have no good way to test that.

  I’m getting a SOAP not available error

Your host probably doesn’t have the SOAP library for PHP installed on your server.
Ask
 them about it.

  I’m still confused!
