thanks for the prompt reply, gspot.

I've downloaded the new files, edited & uploaded, but still get the blank page. I did all steps very carefully but still no success. Is this hack compatible for 3.0.3?

Make sure the path to your vbulletin directory is correct in the referals.php file. Also make sure the new template names are spelt correctly and contain the correct data that was supplied. I just edited a few more things on the zip, so please re-download the files again and start fresh with this new install. Then please let me know... Also, give me a link to your white page that your receiving.

Sory to disturb you gspot. It was my mistake. After read more carefully, I found the problem...quite silly actually . When I added the 2 templates, I named both as "refer copy" and "referbit copy". That's why I always get the blank referals.php page. What a dumb mistakes! I must get some more coffee :laugh:

Now it's working smoothly. Thanks for this great hack & your support! It's really a perfect feature for my referral contest. I definitely will install it to my other two forums.

Yeah, so I'm getting this error at the top of my referals.php page. It's working like a charm this time (I had to uninstall before), except for this one little error

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in /home/degrassi-boards.com/html/referals.php on line 28

Any ideas?

your path to your vbulletin forums directory has to be wrong. Check with your host for the correct path, then you should be ok. Let me know.

Would be nice if this listed all refs from all usergroups... Plus have a second page with ref stats that could be deleted as per the admin... that way you could run ref contests and after its down reset the stats for the contest....

I'd just like to express my EXTREME gratitude for gspot and say how wonderful it is to have a hack creator who gives support for their hack. I had a problem and gspot solved it for me and I wish that everyone were like that.

gspot you get 2 thumbs up from me and I hope everyone gives you the credit you deserve because YOU ROCK.

venomx - this hack should show all referrals from all usergroups by default. I have only an option to limit the referral results by usergroups that you can implement into the code listed in the commented out instruction in referals.php file.

Sorry didnt try to install this yet just read the first few pages. How about a way to count how many new refs since last reset?
