That is not a publisher, but an author.

Hi Lídia,

URLs such as this https://www.amazon.it/sp?seller=A2J0MITA2KJVTV is for booksellers, bookshops, all types resellers, but not publishers on Amazon KDP or Kindle.

Anyways, thanks for your help.

Hi Tom,

That is not entirely true.

First of all, there has never been a publisher profile on Amazon. That simply does not exist.

Then, as a publisher, (1) we do not have access to our authors’ profile(s) — which belongs to the authors and not to the publisher —, and if we did, we’d be featuring books that we don’t necessarily publish, or want, or are allowed to feature on our site ; (2) we have dozens of authors, which would require the Pro package, but we would have issues filtering out books that are on the author’s profile but not published by us – see (1). Then, (3) we can’t create an author profile for someone else, that is not legal.

The ONLY way is to display Amazon products, which Trustindex does, but the set up is PER PRODUCT based (that is, in our context as, again, we can’t scrape from/ enter an author profile and Amazon does not have publisher profiles). So, for every book, we’d have to enter the book’s URL, then go though the painful process of setting up each widget.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but there’s no duplicate process for an existing widget — I may be wrong here as we’ve never gone that far with the free plugin. This is an example of a Amazon product/book: https://www.amazon.fr/Histoire-loligarchie/dp/2491861097/. Do let me know if you can scrape more products/books from this URL.

In the Pro package, you can have 5 profiles, and based on what I said earlier, that corresponds to 5 products, that’s it. 5 products with each 1 billion reviews is still equal to 5 products.

Anyway, I’m glad you’ve come up here to answer my questions. So, I’ll change my review to 3 stars.

Again, that’s what I said: free plugin = one Amazon product/URL.
Unlimited reviews for one Amazon product/URL is still one Amazon product/URL.

That’s exactly what I said.
– Free of charge: 1 widget, i.e., one Amazon review for one product
– $65/y: 3 widgets, i.e., 3 Amazon reviews for 3 products
– $125/y: 5 widgets, i.e., 5 Amazon reviews for 5 products
– If you have > 5 products, like most publishers, you’ll need the ultimate at $349/y
– 30% off is only for the first year, then $349/y…

Look, I’m also not happy to give a 1-star review, but saying “sorry, we don’t have any info to give you about the backend of an app we developed ourselves, so purchase the plugin and see how it goes” is simply unacceptable.

Again, please reread, perhaps slowly this time, my emails where I say “I CANNOT RAISE A PO — PURCHASE ORDER — FROM MY COMPANY UNTIL I KNOW THAT THE SOLUTION WILL WORK“. I hope it is clear now.

I’ll reopen the ticket if you want so that you may share some screenshots, but I have the intuition that this will end up just the same.

Then, should I ever run into technical issues or questions, I now have low hopes we’ll ever be helped.

Hi Vinold,

We’ve purchased the lifetime single site license at USD 99.99 and did install and activate it on our first site, i.e., /it. It activated fine.

However, after installing it on our second site, i.e., /es, under the same domain (see prior request to which you answered “You only need a single license.”), it turns out that license refuses to activate itself. This is the message we’re getting:

“The license was already utilized. If you are trying to move a license from another site, open the Account page under the plugin settings in the admin dashboard, click on deactivate license first, and then try again.”

Can you help?

Thanks.

Hello DearHive. Email sent. Please do let us know if you have not received it or if you’d prefer to convese here.

Hi DearHive,

We’ve received your email. We’ll reply to you shortly.

Thanks for all your help.

Hi. Thanks for your answer. I just did that.

Could you tell me about the license part, i.e, is one Single Site license enough?

Thanks a lot.

What about if you want to display posts/blogs AND pages, can we set posts/blogs first AND pages behind?

Vinod,

I’ve installed the Free license and it’s working fine this far. We’re quite happy with it.

In the search results, is it possible to have Posts displayed before Pages? If so, would we need the Pro license for that?

Last question: we’re running 6 sites under the same domain, using 6 WordPress separate folders, i.e., /site -> / for English, /fr for French, /it for Italian, etc. Would we then need a single-site license to run the Pro version on all 6 sites or a multiple-site license?

Hi Vinod. It’s for our company intranet, which does not have outside access. Can it be done thru the “Add custom CSS code”?

It is indeed a separate folder for every site, under a single domain. Thanks a lot.
