Miscellaneous Hacks - User CP Referral ID and Referrer/Referrals in Profile for vB 4

User CP Referral ID and Referrer in Profile for vB 4
Version 1.0.8
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This product will add a content box at the top of the User CP displaying a customizable referral "Message" and the member's "Referral Link" along with their referral count. This will also show who referred a user in their profile in the About Me tab, under Referrals, at the bottom. It will only show in the About Me tab if the user has been referred by someone. A Referred Members List has also been added for each member so you can see who a Member has referred. The referral count in the User CP will link directly to the Referred members List.

NOTE: If you are currently using Referrer in Profile for vB 4, you will need to uninstall that first, as this does the same thing but with the User CP Referral ID and Referred Members List added.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release for vB 4
Version 1.0.1 --Usergroups 3 and 4 are no longer represented in the referral count in the User CP.
Version 1.0.2 --Added Referred Members List for each member and a link to the list from the User CP referral count.
Version 1.0.3 --Fixed the Referral Link to reflect the 'Script Name for Forum Home Page' setting in vB 4.
Version 1.0.4 --Product is now completely phrased.
Version 1.0.5 --Referred Members List is now alphabetically sorted and Usergroups 3 and 4 are no longer represented in the listing.
Version 1.0.6 --Added the ability to collapse the box.
Version 1.0.7 --Moved Referrer below Join Date. The Referrals will no longer show if the user has no referrals. This is done via an automatic template edit.
Version 1.0.8 --Added User CP Referral ID Box Position setting. This will allow you to choose the location where you want the Referral ID box to show in the User CP.

NOTE: The "manual_template_edit_code.txt" is included in case the automatic template edit doesn't work for some custom skins.

It kid of defeats the purpose if they collapse it, don't you think? It reminds them to invite others to the site.

Certainly I know what you mean, but also, people may think this is a bit aggressive towards them. If they could collapse it, it'd be easier on them. Some would like to help forum and get more referrals, some wouldn't. Why not give them the choice?

At least I think the more choice they have, the better.

[Boofo]

If they collapse it, it will be open again the next time they visit the page, so why bother? That is my point.

[Alan_SP]

I think that information about state (collapsed or not) is stored in cookies, at least that was with vB3. You can collapse groups of forums, if you want it.

Anyway, I thought this would be nice addition to your mod.

[Boofo]

I will look into it.

[Alan_SP]

Thank you.

Hello BooFo , thank you very much for this new addon.
I would like to know please how to install because the instructions are very difficult.
I find the file additional.css please. ?
Thanks.

[Alan_SP]

Actually, it's very easy to install it.

Just find additional.css template in CSS templates and add it. The rest is importing product as any other. After that, just use it.

Can you change the box to be collapsible?
