Abebooks Site Plug-in

Post by FineWine »

Hi Team. When Adding a new title and a result is found at abebooks this is the link that comes up. How can I scrub clean Googles clickserve redirect service from this link or prevent it from happening?

http://clickserve.cc-dt.com/link/tplcli ... 0758253408

I only want: http://abebooks.com/products/isbn/9780758253408

Also using the above as an example, it did not pull in the cover art or summary/synopsis.

Cheers

Thank you for the information. I have update the plugin, you should have no click serve redirect in the next version. It was originally added as it's part of the Abe books API, they use the Google Affiliate network. However, it does not seem to be mandatory for granting access to their API and I have removed it, we don't collect the 5% commission on sales either way from Google Affiliates. The synopsis and cover are sometimes not available in the API, but since they use Amazon for a lot of their covers I tried to add that in when possible. Do please try out the beta version.
