How it Works:
This will add a Referral Link to the User so he/she can boost their referral count and hits.

When someone clicks the unique referral link and they register, the username will automatically be put in the refers forum upon registration.

Some forums have tournements for people who can refer the most people this is a very easy way of doing it.


DEMO FOR REFERRING LINK:
http://forums.myxboxspot.com/index.php?referrerid=1
  1. Click Link
  2. Then click Register, Note how the Username is automatically placed in forum. This makes it easier for the user to grab their unique referral link when advertising and helping promote your site.
No demo For UserCP See Attachment Preview below.

Code:
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%">

Reminder: the referral link displays the userID not the actual username, this could be a potential security issue when it comes to the exploitation of your forum, most exploits run on a UserID basis.
