Hello everyone!

We already asked this @ vbulletin.com, and it seems that it would need some kind of hacking, so we'll just copy-paste the thread we created there :) Here it is:


Hello everyone! :)

We would like to know if there is any way to show the top referrer in forumhome, and also top referrer's homepage :)

We are encouraging our users to post their referrer link in their websites, so we would love to thank them by placing something like this in our forumhome:

Our top referrer is xxxx from www.theirurl.com!!

Where www.theirurl.com would be the url this user has in his/her profile :)

Would it be possible without hacking?

Thanx in advance!!

I guess u can use this: $ref[homepage] to show the website of that user aswell .....in your forumhome template

Yipeeee! Thanx!! :) BTW, how can we do this?:

3. Add an index to field referrerid in table user.

Can't wait to try this :)

And just to make it totally perfect. Would it be possible to allow the user to specify the name of his site so in his/her profile it would be something like this:

Homesite: My homesite (www.blahblahblah.com)

This way, you would see something like this in your forumhome:

--
Our Top Referrer is Lesane (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=345) from The Various Elements Board (http://www.lesane-crooks.com/board/)!!
--

Thanx again for your help, Lesane! ^^

U can find more info about the index here (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=24946)

About the name of the website, u cant display it with that hack. U have 2 make some modifications in the register.php file and add a new row into the user table and more..

U can also easily link it like:

<a href="$ref[homepage]">$ref[username] Website</a>

So its like: Lesane's Website <- with a link to lesane's website.

Optional ofcourse ;)
