Since Zazzle doesn't want us to use our RF except when they do (BTW I hate toilet paper math!) are they going to change up all the ways to share things? Like the share to Pinterest button? I've gotten used to just sharing the way i share and now it's all crazy. Also I have to change hundreds of product links on my website and the Benable pages that I did wrong because I'm used to just adding the RF code that I thought was supposed to help me.
Or at least can we have an easy sharing guide written on concise terms as in do this, then this, and this. Not do this unless you want to do this, but you may also do this, but only if it's this, but not this and also not this except in times where it's applicale to this this, though remember not to do this except when you need to do this and only this, except where this doesn't apply except sometimes this applies, but only on the rare everyday exception where this also applies to this but not this. Also here is an acronym no one knows. Follow that too.

I don't know what you mean by "Zazzle doesn't want us to use our RF code except when they do."
For your own products, you use the direct URL without the RF code to get a self-referral of 35-50% depending on department; and for sharing other people's products, you use the RF code to get 15%. Using the Share button to Pinterest or anywhere else automatically gives you the "clean link" without the RF code for your own products, and for other people's products it automatically adds your RF code. So it is actually pretty simple.
Now, certain designers have figured out special scenarios where it might be more lucrative to add your RF code to your own products, and forgo the 35-50% self-referral for the 15% referral. But keep in mind that in that case you will also lose the 40-50% marketing fee from the royalty for that product, since it will now be a 3rd party sale. So for 99% of cases, it's better to NOT use the RF code on your own products.
