What is it?

This plugin is based upon the old AALB-Plugin which was discontinued by Amazon in March 2020 when they introduced their new Product Advertising API 5.0 and deactivated the old 4.0 API. As a consequence that all shortcodes generated by that plugin to stop working.

This is basically the same plugin as before, just connected to the new PAAPI version.

For Whom is it?

If you used the AALB-Plugin and want to keep using your existing shortcodes and just want to keep things going as they were, this plugin is for you. You don't have to buy any other plugin and convert your shortcodes!

If you are looking for new features, there are some other awesome plugins.
