I love this question, because I can nerd out about the web inspector for a minute. When you right click on a web page and hit “View Page Source”, this displays the original source code returned from the server, not the fully rendered webpage.
Instead, when you right click, if you hit “Inspect”, you’ll see the fully rendered webpage, after everything has fully loaded, including this Affiliate Link Genie plugin.
Google, as with other search engines, look at the fully rendered web page not the View Source HTML. So rest assured, this plugin is working!
