vB REFERRER 1.0 · **Released**: 09-08-2005

This modification is made for vBulletin 3.5 RC2, but probably also works for RC3.

Very simple to install.

===========================
DEMO BOARD
===========================

You can see a demo at:
http://www.forumfreedom.net/forum

===========================
DESCRIPTION
===========================

This will add a link to the UserCP that tells every user what his/her reffering link is so that they can invite friends. Later version will include ability to send the e-mail from the forum itself. This hack is very simple.

===========================
INSTALL
===========================

Time: Less than a minute
Difficulty: Easy

===========================

Let me know what you think. It's nothing advanced, just thought it could come in handy for some people.

PLEASE CLICK INSTALL!

UPDATE: NO LONGER TAKES ANY FILE EDITS!

I'd love to use this hack, but is there any way to do it without editing the php files directly? How about just a template edit? Is it possible?

Andreas · #3 09-10-2005, 04:32 AM

Yeah, a Template Edit would do as well:

Code:

<!-- ############## START REFERRER BY ADAM GESSEL ####################  -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
<thead>
	<tr>
		<td class="tcat" colspan="7">
			<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('usercp_subthreads')"><img id="collapseimg_usercp_subthreads" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_usercp_subthreads].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
			<a href="register.php?referrerid=$bbuserinfo[userid]">Refer Friends URL</a><span class="normal"></span>
		</td>
	</tr>
</thead>
<tbody id="collapseobj_usercp_subthreads" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_usercp_subthreads]">
	<tr>
			<td class="alt1" align="center" colspan="7">Invite your friends to our forum by sending them to: <a href="register.php?referrerid=$bbuserinfo[userid]">http://www.yourforum.com/forum/register.php?referrerid=$bbuserinfo[userid]</a></td>
		</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br />
<!-- ############## END REFERRER BY ADAM GESSEL ####################  -->

Would be nice if this could be updated

I've been using this one on v3.5 and it seems to work pretty well: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=90849 (sorry, not to take away from this modification, I'm willing to bet they could be combined for an update.)

007 · #5 09-10-2005, 04:57 PM

There is no reason for a code edit at all on this one.. Good idea though.

ReadOrDie · #6 09-10-2005, 05:42 PM

Was this that hack I requested in the other thread?

adamgessel · #7 09-10-2005, 08:03 PM

Yeah, I could've done it without any file edits. I'll update it and make it so that there aren't any.

adamgessel · #8 09-10-2005, 08:06 PM

Alright... hack was updated. Now there aren't any file modifications.

Which is better?

I could use a hack like this, thanks!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
