Only if you dont follow the instructions when limiting the referral results by either usergroupid or number of posts. Most people never got that error, but if you add a limit to the results, and forget to setup all limits, then yes youll need to run it once. But you should be fine.

How far away is the new version you talked about? Maybe a month, a couple of days.

I'm getting ready to install this hack and was wondering if I should wait.

NEW VERSION: to be released in the next couple of months

Thanks for that. Now I feel better about doing the install tonight

Will it keep track of total refferals "and" last time since reset per user?

Example:
Joe_user (26) 12

Where (26) would be joe's all time refferal count and 12 would be the number since last reset.

Tried the usual fixes

Its the common one!

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

I have set my path inside the control panel to what i see in ftp programs
/public_html/forum but it is still giving this error - even though the page actually works.

I also have trouble getting the vbadv page and the Vb forums pages to have working URLs.

Please help
