Referral System

[weightman]

The ultimate profile mod was a disaster for me- very buggy with no real support.

I have no idea what exactly you need from this, but this is the code that displays referrals:

Code Select Expand

        // Adds the referral/referred user information to the profile summary
        echo '<tr><td colspan="2"><hr size="1" width="100%" class="hrcolor" /></td></tr>   
                <tr>
                    <td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referrals'].'</b></td>
                    <td>'.$context['member']['referrals_no'] .'  ';
       
        // Show in dropdown usersname of those referred
        if(!empty($context['member']['referredmembers']))
        {
       
            echo '<select onchange="location=options[selectedIndex].value;">
                <option>'.$txt['referrals_membersreferred'].'</option>';
            foreach($context['member']['referredmembers'] as $x)
                echo $x;

            // Tidy up
            unset($x);
            echo '</select>';
        }
        echo'        </td>
                </tr>
                <tr>
                    <td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referrals_hits'].'</b></td>
                    <td>'.$context['member']['referrals_hits'].'</td>
                </tr>';
        if (!empty($context['member']['referred_by']))
        {
            echo'            <tr>
                    <td><b>'.$txt['referrals_referred_by'].'</b></td>

Hi Thanks for the Code.

Just check this page. http://forum.itacumens.com/index.php?action=profile;u=1

I got some error using the code. I have used this code.

Give me some edit to it.

Got Seated Perfectly.

Thanks a lot Author for this kind help.

Even thank a lot for the excellent mod too.

[stanwww]

I try the mod in v.1.1.5. But, the mod does not work. Nothing changes in the profile area. Anyone may help?

Stanley

[Fustrate]

Are you using a custom theme? You'll need to make the theme edits in your custom theme's Profile.template.php following the guidelines on the page found at...

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1114
Look under "Download This Mod"
Select the first radio button on the right side, next to "Referrals_Mod_v2.0.1.zip (15KB)"
Select "1.1.5" from the dropdown list underneath those options
And on the following page, search for "Profile.template.php"

Damn, they really need to let us link directly to the instructions page...

[edi67]

excellent

[ke4obt]

maybe I missed it, but when it comes to showing the URL and the copy button, I want it so that only the Admin and the user who's profile it's on will see that - not another user.
My forum is basically closed - you don't see diddly squat unless you log in, so the referral for a "new" user isn't going to be used FROM the site. I'd like it so that the registered user can see/copy his own referral URL to paste it in his/her e-mail, blog, etc. But also, so that the referrals tally is still showing in their profile. I don't want Johnny being able to see Jimmy's referral URL, much less copy it.
Does this make sense? Is it possible? Please tell me it's possible AND not too difficult to do!!
Thanks in advance,
Flip

I'm using this mod whilst using the Ultimate Profile mod.

The code has been added to UltimateProfile.template.php to make the referrer information show, but the background for the newly added referrer area is a different colour to the rest of the ultimate profile.

Any suggestions?

(php file attached)

[Fustrate]

attached

[Aeoni]

Flawless. Correct colour, and the individual elemts, like pictures, media etc now line up correctly.


Thanks

[Fustrate]

Sorry for the one-word post, had to rush off to class (and now I have to rush off to work )

Glad to hear it worked

[CorpRebel]

Probably a silly question but ...

I just installed this Referrals Mod v2.0 thru the SMF pkg installer feature. Everything seemed to install okay. It (the referral link) shows up in my test profile.

Is there an admin type control panel for this mod in the SMF admin area so I can see who does the most referrals? I'm not having any luck finding one in my admin area. I need to see everyone's referral stats or this mod becomes unusable to me.

Thanx!

Rick aka CorpRebel 

P.S. Just want to say thanx to you guys and gals that put out all these mods. They're VERY helpful! Alot more organized here.

[Fustrate]

So you want a list, 50 to a page, of your members ordered by how many referrals they have? I've been meaning to add that into the code... might as well, seeing how it's gotten a few requests.

For now, there are two little stat boxes added in your forum statistics page, which list the top fives.

That would be super KOOL for what I'm gonna be using it for. It helps the admin keep track of users that bring visitors to the site. Thx!

Being new to the SMF software, I guess I need to look for this. heh heh


Thanx Again!

It seems there is a problem with the package files in the download section. I can't see the preview images and can't download the zip file.
Sorry Simple machines must be down. No mod or theme can be downloaded.

[enigma87]

I would like to make a page with banners that have the referral links automaticlally in the html code i give with each banner. So can u tell me where i need to get the referral link for each user from?

[Fustrate]

Either go to their profile (it's in the front page of it) or if you have their user ID, the link is http://www.yoursite.com/forum/index.php?referredby=123 where 123 is their user ID.

[enigma87]

Oops I know how to see another user's referral link, I wanna code a page such that, when i visit the banners page, the banner html code shows my referral link, When another person does that, he sees his own referral link... So i need the variable that gives "referredby=$something" where $something is the user's ID. I tried to look thru profile.php and i could not find where the code for printing out the referral link is....
