Timo November 1, 2022 ASA 2 Pro, Updates Leave a Comment

This post is also available in: Deutsch (German)

The new ASA2 update supports the three new countries where the Amazon PA API is now available:

Belgium
Egypt
Saudi Arabia

Compatibility with WordPress 6.1

The release of the new WordPress version 6.1 is imminent. The new ASA2 update has been tested and optimized for smooth operation with the new WordPress version. ASA2 1.16.3 can be used with WordPress 6.1 without any concerns.

Optimizations for PHP 8

Support for PHP 7.4 will expire in November 2022. Therefore, some web hosts are planning to switch off PHP 7 soon and offer PHP 8 only. ASA2 is developed and tested under the current and future PHP version. This update includes several improvements regarding PHP support.

If you notice any issues regarding compatibility with both WordPress and/or PHP versions, you are welcome to create a support ticket.

Bugfixes and improvements

The update also contains some bugfixes and improvements regarding the layout of the included product templates. As always, you can find the details in the changelog.

Timo

I started working on AmazonSimpleAdmin back in 2007 because I could not find an Amazon plugin for WordPress that met my requirements. After many years of experience and hard work, the complete new ASA 2 Pro was released in early 2016. Follow me on Twitter. Learn more about me and the story behind ASA in this interview on expertentesten.de (in German).

I use ASA2 Pro on several websites with different Wordpress themes. I really like the Repo function and the possibilities to adapt the design for each website individually. Also the message function, which tells me on a weekly basis, which products I use are no longer available is really helpful and helps to improve the user experience.

The support is top-notch and very efficient. We could sort out all of my questions in the beginning and I'm more than happy with my decision to use ASA2 Pro!

We've been using ASA2 very extensively on a daily basis for several months now and have been excited about the opportunities it offers Amazon Affiliates from day one.

In addition to the fact that the TestSuite provides an easy way to get an idea of the readable product features, the reliability of the plugin and the up-to-dateness of the data are particularly impressive.

ASA2 helps us to provide our readers with the most relevant and up-to-date product information on an automated basis.

The new features added over the last months also increase the usability of the tool and make the plugin, despite the extremely powerful and versatile functions, easy in daily use.

We have been using the Amazon Simple Admin plugin for years now with lots of our quality affiliation projects. ASA 2 improves the product in every respect.

The easy and seamless integration of Amazon products, which is possible using the extremely flexible templating mechanism, is a real benefit for us, along with the sophisticated caching and great support. Thanks Timo for all the great work so far!

Christoph Weil

We started using ASA2 on one of our websites to test the plugin and to see if we gain benefits in using the plugin vs. developing it ourselves. Everyone in our team admits that it was the best decision to go for ASA2. Also in comparison to other Amazon Associate Plugins on the market ASA2 delivers the best value for an acceptable amount of money.

No matter if you want to customise ASA2 templates or generate them yourself. The plugin is easy to understand and works amazing. Furthermore I really like the support of the ASA2 - if you write them you nearly instantly get an answer to your question.

We now plan to use ASA2 on further pages. We definitely found what we were looking for a long time. Thanks a lot!

Our agency uses ASA 2 on more than 20 websites. The installation is fast, the administration is uncomplicated, and the design integrates easily with our themes.

Support from ASA 2 has been available every time - which one does not often see anymore today!

For website administrators in general, and especially for administrators of niche sites, we believe that ASA 2 saves a lot of time. The ranking stars promise an additional level of trust.

David Morawietz

We are now using ASA2 on 5 websites, including for example luxusuhren-test.de. Here we are using ASA2 to blend in Amazon products and to make automatic regular updates.

The possibilities of display form with ASA2 are nearly unlimited: with a little HTML and CSS know-how, one can design one's own templates, and with numerous placeholders, products can be individually offered. The loading times for the user are minimized by server-side caching.

A big plus is the support. Our inquiries are processed within a few hours and new feedback has been openly acknowledged.

ASA 2 allows for a simple and fast integration of Amazon products. The creation of custom product templates and an overview of integrated products and their availability are just a few of the features that simplify work as an affiliate.

The prior plugin had already convinced me. I can warmly recommend ASA 2 to every affiliate.

Matthias Lehr

Through the use of ASA 2, I was able to reduce the loading time of my website by a third. That led to better rankings!

The switch to ASA 2 was simple and was completed with the turn of a hand, thanks in part to a template conversion function and a great set of instructions. For me, the highlight is the ASA 2 product repo, that pulls the product data into my WordPress. I intend to use ASA 2 in all of my other projects!

ASA 2 is my clear Amazon Affiliate Plugin favorite! It is unbelievable how many features have been added! Many thanks to Timo for the great work in ongoing development!
