Referral System

[aED]

There is no referral stuff on the profile page nor does the referal link work.

What version of SMF are you using? Are you using a custom theme?

What does it show if you tried to visit a referral link?

[rd]

Did you install correctly? Any errors? Custom theme?

You installed it twice on the mod page pick your version of smf and parse it then you will have to manually remove the code from the second install.

Updated for SMF 2.0 RC3!

[mrtrc266]

Any ideas on this?

Using RC3 it works fine on the default profile template. I see the whole referral link

After install the Ultimate Profile Mod and doing the edit to the UltimateProfile.template.php file

I only see this "?action=register;referredby=1" instead of this "http://localhost/smf/index.php?action=register;referredby=1"

Hi VBgamer... I only have a minor little glitch with this mod on my SMF 2.0 RC3 install, you can see what it's doing in my "More Stats" screen at my site (see signature)...

Should an easy fix... seems good to go every where else in the mod tho, great job...

I've even implemented a cash prize contest based on this mod, so if we could get the aesthetics squared away I'd be all set to go

$scripturl isn't being globaled.

Any word on this issue?

Could you please let me know what need to be changed in order to traslate this MOD to italian language?

Thank You

Thanks for the mod. I just have a question because something is not working.

When I click the referral link and get to the registration page, the user who referred is not added automatically! The user needs to search for the person who referred him. How or what to edit in order that the user who referred is added without searching? I need this mod for a contest of mine . I tried on the basic theme and custom theme. Cleared the cookies everytime aswell.

Thanks for the mod btw.

Update 1 : Oh and my link looks like this : hxxx://pokerullz.com/register/referredby,1/   . Is it alright? I am using SimpleSEF aswell.

Update 2  : I switched off SimpleSef to try to see if it works and it works!!! How can I get a way around it so I can use both and the one who referred is added automatically? Ty
Cheers.

Thank you for the response, how do I fix it though? I just installed this live and I'm getting the same thing.

Everyone's referral link is: ?action=register;referredby=X

EDIT: Never mind I got it. For anyone else....
Found /UltimateProfile.template.php

Code Select Expand

function up_block_user_info() {
    global $settings, $txt, $context;
Replaced with

Code Select Expand

function up_block_user_info() {
    global $settings, $txt, $context, $scripturl;

[ozzie1016]

I installed it and it works great. I am using rc3...I do have one question though...is there a way to hide the stats from other members...to make it just so admins can see it. I don't see anything in permissions that allows a change on this....Thanks in advance

[Diamond1444]

I have the same question as Ozzie.

Mod installed correctly but when i try to copy the link from my profile, it refuses to copy.
it can be highlighted but ctrl+C doesnt work.
Right click removes the highlight and copies only " ; ".

Edit.. it works on Firefox, the problem was on Google chrome.

Another question is why this doesnt have any config link on the admin panel..
I also assume it is safe to remove the link from the registration page ?

I'm not sure why at all this error is occurring but I'm getting it whenever not logged into the forums when using this mod..

I uninstall the mod and everything is good to go..

This is line 799 and surrounding:

I have installed this mod and switched to the core theme to test it (previously using Babylon theme). I see the referral info in the profile, but I don't see a referral button or link to actually activate an invitation. Am I missing a button, or are my members supposed to copy/paste the invitation into an email?

You are correct there isn't a button, your members simply pass out their referral link to whoever they like. One thing to suggest when you make the announcement is for them to put it in their signature on other forums. Once someone clicks on your referral link it will stay in the cookies for 60 days (unless they clear their cookies). Or a member can simply type in the name of the referrer when they register to your site.

Thanks! Does it matter whether the new member types in the display name of the referring member? Or must the new member type in the referring member's actual user name?
