Logs update each activities about link of affiliate to our web site?
or only if finish the checkout?

    no, logs don't update everything. Logs simply show the first LOG for each user.

    Do you have some more documentation to read about LOG rules?
    I tried with some tests and for me is not so clear the behaviour...

    So logging only if the guest make an account and login?
    But only if guest arrive from a web site of an Affiliate or in any case?
    Are there some delay between real activities in front end and report the log in backend?

    thank you,

    "Logs" will log every time that a user accesses your website using an AFFILIATE link.
    a normal visit doesn't get logged (it's not relevant to affiliate tracker). Only those coming from a click on an affiliate link will be logged.

    Logs is "similar" to the "number of clicks" you get on your affiliate links (not exactly because some are filtered or not counted)

    so only coming from affiliate link, ok
    but the user need to login or is enough arrive on the our web site?

    abut your:
    "(not exactly because some are filtered or not counted)"

    do you can let me know the rules of this filter or why not counted?
    otherwise this function is quite not useful...
    or sorry... in which way do you use this function?
    how do you suggest to use this function?


    thank you

    he don't need to log in. it is enough to "arrive to the website"

    well, basically repeated visits from the same user are not counted. If the user clicks, and then clicks again, only 1 click will be mapped, not 2 (there's no need for it)

    You are focusing too much on logs. Logs are super useful for the INTERNAL LOGIC of affiliate tracker. it's how it works. You don't need to worry about logs, the important part is CONVERSIONS.

    you are asking about "how to use this function".. you DON'T have to use anything on logs. logs is for internal use...
