How to add amazon banners to a post
I want to copy and paste a nice Amazon banner straight from Amazon and into one of my posts. I want it to show the shop now button, a picture of the product and a small description.
I went ahead and followed the steps in Amazon by copying the URL link and pasting it to my post editor in WordPress.
Instead of getting a nice 'shop now' for the product I had chosen, all I got was a big, smelly URL code.
What am I doing wrong?
The answer is simple.
When we post a URL link from Amazon for a product we would like to sell directly on a post or page we need to post the URL into the 'text' form of our post. Most of us (like me) will be doing all their work in the 'visual' form of posting. If that didn't make sense then just check out the photos.
This is the visual form of writing a post and we aren't able to post URL codes here.
Now you can see (in the top right corner) I am in the text form of writing a post. This is the coded version of a post and where we can post direct amazon URL links.
Post your affiliate link in the text form and you will be right as rain!

One of those things where you know it's got to be something minor that you're doing wrong but you just can't get it! An hour I'll never get back

I can see the last comment on this post was 2 years ago. So, I don't know how relevant the post is to current situations. But I still think I can profit from it.
My system has 'Code editor & Visual editor'. But you were describing Text editor & Visual editor. So I assumed my Code editor is the same as your Text editor.
But when I turn on my code editor, paste the Url I copied from Amazon, what i see is the Url I pasted. So I must be doing something wrong. Would somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Hey yes. After you have pasted go back to visual and then you will see it as how it is on amazon. When you are still in code editor you will see the naked link but when you turn to visual you'll see the banner.
