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.

I just successfully added this to 3.7.4. I got the same security token error, and when I compared the existing sendtofriend template with the refertofriend posted here I noticed a hidden input variable was missing:

<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />

I added this under line 50 to the refer a friend template.

I also noticed that upon a completed submission the forms returns to the previously viewed page. That's probably fine, has anyone done this with a custom confirmation landing page?

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