Can an affiliate use their own affiliate link to get credit for their own purchase?

Can we stop this, we don't want affiliates to get credit for their own purchases?

Hi,

Yes it's possible.
In the plugin (plugins/system/hikashopaffiliation/hikashopaffiliation.php) please replace

		} else {
			$partner_id = $order->order_partner_id;
		}

		$userClass = hikashop_get('class.user');
		$user = $userClass->get($partner_id);
By
		} else {
			$partner_id = $order->order_partner_id;
		}

		$config = hikashop_config();
		if($config->get('no_self_affiliation', 1) && $order->order_user_id == $partner_id)
			return true;

		$userClass = hikashop_get('class.user');
		$user = $userClass->get($partner_id);
I just submit same kind of patch for the next HikaShop release but where the default setting for the setting is "0" and not "1" (so the option won't be activated by default like here).
