Refer Friend

For some reason, there is no "Refer a Friend" form standard in vB3.

This is a simple "Refer a Friend" form based on sendmessage.php.

All you need is to edit 1 PHP file - sendmessage.php, and add 1 template.

Instructions are in the HTML zipped below.

Below is a screenshot, as requested.

Thank you... but I dont know how to do that. I only know the pritty stuff...

See I want it to work like this. You type... hey jen... come check this out... (you only have x amount of txt you can type)
then hit send.

She get that nice template... with your friends attached.

I love the mod and use it on 2 different boards. Any plans to port it over as a plugin for 3.5?

/me clicks install

Great hack! Installed without a hitch.

I would like to have this on a 3.5 beta 3 board.
Erwin, before I dive into the code, will it work on 3.5, and if not, do you have plans to modify it so that it will?
thank you

I used the auto-installer and it wouldn't work in firefox, so I dl'ed the manual install and put the vbulletin_global.js in manually and works fine now.

Except it only shows up on the portal page, the main forums don't have "contact us" or "refer friends", not sure if it's the template I'm using or what. So if anyone knows where I could look to fix that it would be appreciated. Otherwise I love this one.

**brainfreeze Installed!

Any possibility we could add a standard form field on the bottom of the forum page - similar to http://forums.ikonboard.com (must be logged in to see the "Invite a Friend" feature.

I really dont get this I have recently upgraded to V3.0.8 and I know get this error:-

ewadmin_simon, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

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