MyBB - referral system. Can you make a linK? by .blade// on 05-20-2005 at 03:38 PM
Is there a way to make a direct link for referals in MyBB, e.g. "http://www.ps3lounge.net/index.php?refid=randomperson334" or w/e instead of having to manually put "randomperson334" in the registration field?
I need it for this:

I believe it's already built in. The variable name is "referrer".
When you load a forum page with the referrer set in the URL, it gets copied to a cookie, then when you load the registration form, the referrer name is filled in automatically.
I just went to http://www.ps3lounge.net/forums.php?referrer=1 and then tried to register, and your username was filled in.

But if you change the number at the end, the referrer is still blade =\

Query: was this thread split, or just trimmed?
