Referrals in Postbit · **Released**: 04-06-2007

Dear vBulletin users,

Yesterday I saw a thread about "how to show referrals in postbit" and I decided to do a favour to those people who want that.

HOW TO INSTALL

1) Please upload the "plugin" first.

2) Go to your postbit or postbit_legacy template and find:

HTML Code:

$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]

Add after:

HTML Code:

<br />Referrals: $referrals

That's all!

Congratulations! You have it working!

Do not forget to click install!

The amount of referrals shows up wrong in private messages. For some reason it lists 8 referrals when there's none.
Is it possible that this code adds server load? My forum is extremely slow since i added this.
I deactivated the plugin and my forum was fast as ever again. Is there a way around this? Can the number of referrals be cached or something?

Hello,

I like this add-on. Showing the number of referrals will boost the members ego and will encourage them to refer more to the site. Thanks for this great addon and great idea!

BTW, has this bug of showing your referrals in the person who pm-ed you been fixed? Please can someone point me to the fixed code?

Thanks in advance

Mo this has not been fixed yet but its not a big deal

Where is this hack that adds a referrals page? I searched for it and could see only hacks for vB 3.5.*. Is there one for 3.6.*? I would love to install it.

Thanks.

Hello,

I have installed this mod and it shows up referral numbers in the members postbit. A good motivational tool to get members refer more of their friends. Thank you.

But I noticed a mismatch...not sure if it is a bug or I am missing something.

I went to Admincp -> Users -> Referrals and ran a report from the beginning of our forum.

I checked a member's profile and postbit, it shows that she has referred 10 members.
But the admincp report says that she has referred 9 members.
However, when I click on the member's name in the admincp report, it lists 10 member names those of whom she referred.

Why this mismatch? Has anyone noticed this?

Please respond. Thanks.
