ok now I got it to work but how can i get it to look like this showing more than one user per page

[gspot]

djjeffa - you need to read the instructions. You need to set the max results in the referrals.php page. This shows how many results per page. It is at default set to 1 result per page...

gspot - great upgrade, except for one thing.

The auto-installer must've left out the phrases, because the entire admin CP section of it is phraseless. (even in the navigation window)

I just checked the installer and its installing the phrases, database changes and settings correctly. Make sure you re-upload all the files and in the instructions there has been a change in the link that you needed to edit in the /admincp/index.php page. Edit your to reflect and I bet you get it to work.

Nope, the phrases just aren't there. I ran the installer again, and still no dice. Everything else is ok though.

What phrases are added by it? I could do it manually if neccessary...

Did you edit the link in the admincp/index.php file?? You really need to do this...It is different than what it was originally. Then perform a seach in phrases for all phases that contain "referrals" - let me know

Hi Gspot.
i finally did the upgrade to the new version.

Im having 2 small issues...

1. Can't see "referaal Statistics' option in admin panel. Its there... but hidden. See attached pic.

2. I do not get the full text on the configuration settings.!! what cud be missing? the phrases? how can I ad those?


3. what does RESET REFFERAL do now in the new version??? the option in admin panel under USERS. it open a BLANK page when i click on it. does it needs to be removed?


overall, :up:

[gspot]

viks - the "Reset Referral" needs to be removed, the $vbphrase for that line in /admincp/index.php was changed from $vbphrase['reset_referrals'] to $vbphrase['get_referrals'] that was the only change to this file.

I will add the manual addition of the phrases tonight to the zip file, so please re-download if you are having issues with the auto-installer.
