# Disable the option to create or edit affiliate links

By default, Partnero affiliate programs allow your affiliate partners to create new, unique affiliate links or edit the default (randomly generated) affiliate link. [Read more about the feature](/knowledge-base/articles-for-partners/create-custom-referral-links).
This is useful for:

* customizing an affiliate link so it's easy to share (e.g., *yourwebsite.com/ref=partnername*)
* using different links for different sources to track performance (e.g., *yourwebsite.com/ref=partnerwebsite, yourwebsite.com/ref=partneryoutube*).

However, you, as the program owner, may decide to disable these options. To do so:

1. Open the affiliate program and go to **Partner portal** under **Affiliate**.

2. In the **Settings** tab, scroll down to **Partner permissions**. You'll find two toggle options there:

   \- **Disable option to edit referral links**: If enabled, your partners will not be able to edit referral links on the Resources page.

3. Click **Update**.
