Affilates Page

[Patman504]

Is there a way you could make a button saying affilates and when the users click on it a whole new page comes up with all of the sites affilates? Please let me know.

I hope I wasnt to brief.

it is actually very easy

Here is one way to do it:

Open /index.php
Find

Code Select Expand

'admin' => array('Admin.php', 'Admin'),
Add After

Code Select Expand

'affiliates' => array('Affiliates.php', 'Affiliates'),
Create /Sources/Affiliates.php
contents:

Code Select Expand

<?phpif (!defined('SMF'))die('Hacking attempt...');function Affiliates() {global $context;// This is gonna be needed...$context['page_title'] = "Affiliats";loadTemplate('Affiliates');}?>
Create /Themes/default/Affiliates.template.php
contents:

Code Select Expand

<?phpfunction template_main(){        global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt;        // Show the link tree.        echo '                <table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0">                        <tr>                                <td>', theme_linktree(), '</td>                        </tr>                </table>';        // The content        echo 'CONTENT HERE, html, anything really. . .';}?>

after all that you can access your new page by index.php?action=affiliates

Ok thanks very much, I will let you know if it works.

this works, but was wondering if a mod could be made that you could access from the admin panel and add affiliates and links etc......I guess a link exchange would be good, where people could submit links and then the admin could approve them or not
