this tracker looks so simple but im having trouble setting up :/
for some reason im not seeing my conversions. I only see the visits
The network added a global postback for me http://mysubdomain.com/postback?cid={aff_sub}
I checked the box to Append click ID to offer URL but it doesnt show up in the offer url (should it?)
and im not sure what my aff link should look like? should i add tokens? i just want to track my conversions, i put in the payout manually
right now it looks like this: http://afflink.com/aff_c?offer_id=8888&aff_id=99999
help is appreciated 
so then uncheck this option when setting up networks right? and add the aff_sub={clickid} manually
"Append click ID to offer URLs"
That looks like a Has Offers link to me - you should probably have &aff_sub={clickId} at the end of your aff link.
In general: add in tokens manually if you have the option.
I don't like the idea of automatically appending click IDs.
What if you don't end the URL with "&subidx="? You also don't see the live URL. Better to go with the explicit option.
In any case, 1) confirm click IDs are appearing at the network first, 2) if no luck then confirm you are using the right postback URL and affiliate network tokens.
Note, I'm not sure of the situation with HasOffers but as general practice it is wise to send unique IDs as anything other than the first subid/aff_sub etc.
