    Does anyone have any "fixes" for getting yahoo conversion tracking to work? As a publisher, i have one affiliate who gets too many conversions showing in their yahoo account and all other affiliates get zero conversions in their account.

    We're working with yahoo directly but they don't seem to know how to help.

    We're putting the code in the correct place on the success page (in the <head></head> section). Yahoo even gave us the following format to use, but this doesn't work:

    ------------------------------
    place it between SETS of event/universal tags as shown below:

    Conversion tag Acct A
    Universal tag Acct A
    Bypass Script
    Conversion Tag Acct B
    Universal tag acct B
    Bypass Script
    Conversion tag Acct C
    Universal tag Acct C
    Bypass Script
    Conversion Tag acct D
    Universal Tag Acct D

    The bypass script is below:

    <script>
    window.pm_hasScriptRun = undefined;
    window.ysm_customData = undefined;
    window.pm_customData = undefined;
    </script>
    -----------------------------------------

    Any ideas on how we can get the conversion tracking to work on yahoo? I know some publishers have figured it out already. Thanks for your help!
