I have upgraded again using the auto-installer.
This time around I see that 26 phrases have been added however the issue remains the same.

1. I have removed "reset referrals" as u suggested but "Referral Statistics" option un Admin Panel remain hidden (as per my pic above).

2. I still do not see any text in the right frame after seletcing "referral Statistics". (as my my second pic above).

:ermm: - any suggestions

:ermm: That fixed it for me, gspot!

Edit: I keep getting this error on referrals.php

Warning: chdir(): No such file or directory (errno 2) in /referrals.php on line 18

I have it chmod to 777, and set the path correct in the admin CP, but I still get it...

Goto Admin CP -> Users -> Referral Statistics
click configure refferal statistics

and then put the path to your referral.php here

mine is like this -
/hsphere/local/home/myname/mywebsite.com/forums

once u have the path OK u wont get the error message.

Thanks Viks, I was able to get it to work! (Actually, you just reminded me that another hack I had possessed the correct path to my vB forum, so I just copy/pasted :P)

For all of you that had problems installing the new phrases prior to 1/27/05 on "referral statistics Version 2.1" please download this file and upload it to your /admincp directory. Follow the instructions and then remove this file from your server.

** Please note: only run this file if you have already ran the auto installer and your phrases were not added **

The auto installer was fixed at 6:22pm pacific standard time on 1/27/05

Everthing is working perfectly.

Thanks Gspot.

good stuff and good support.

Everyone - There were some errors in some of the scripts on the new release. Please re-download the zip file and re-upload all the files. If you have already upgraded to this version, please just re-upload the new files to your server. You DONT need to run the install or upgrade script if you are already up-to-date.

THIS SHOULD BE THE LAST FIX FOR VERSION 2.1

FIXED 1/27/04 - 6:30PM PST.
