Hi, Currently, a sponsored link has to be sponsored for each category it is copied to. Is it possible to fix it so that when a link is sponsored, it can be copied to any category on the same sponsorship? Let me explain this better: Customer sponsored link1, but wants it to appear in two categories. Currently, he must sponsor it in each category, but I would like it if he can sponsor link1, then copy it to other categories, and the clicks get counted for each category on the one sponsor account. Geez, I hope I made sense here. Thanks, Becky

It sounds like you really don't want to copy it, you want to alias it.

Ok thanks, for future reference so that I may be able to answer some of my own questions, what is the difference between copying a link and aliasing it

Put simply, aliases are one single link in multiple categories. A copy is just a new link based on the old one.
