a referral link

Can i get the referral link for my forum? So, that member can use that referral link to invite new members under them? Is this facility available?

i am not sure what you mean. you can create a html page or something. but people would still have to register fopr the forum and you can activate them your self.

unless you open a board for referrals and put that in a ifram in a html page and have the boards forums permissions set to guest to they reply and say who the where referred buy.

i'm not sure what you mean but there's probably a few ways to do it. please explain a Lil more.

ok..
I have a forum named www.paidpostings.com. I want a referral link just like other website for ex www.abc.com/ref=username . ie If member use there referral link to invite new members they are get paid for it. hope you understand.

i dont know it sounds like something you have to set up through www.paidpostings.com. then you would probably have to add the forumotion link.. but i dont know if free forums or forum host are allowed or compatible with a service like that?

i would read all the info you can or try to contact them to see if forumotion forums are compatible

Do what I did, just add a 'referred by' mandatory field for new members when signing up

there you go that works.. i actually have seen that on a few forums.
i got confused with what he was asking.. i still think they are trying to do something else. but that suggestion would work too. then if you activate members your self you can always view the members first to see the referral along with having it in there profile.

i have already added "referred feild" during registration. But my members want "a referral link".
Anyways thanks for your help.

I'm totally confused as to where this referral link will actually lead to?

me too... hahaha
so then create another field where they put the referral link from where they where referred to your forum from.

is that what you mean. you want to know what site/link they were referred from to for the reference to your forum ?

dunno no brainier?

you know what i mean.. so i was a website and someone referred me to your forum. you want to know who and what site it was that referred them to you?

dang all this referring we may have to start getting it all notarized.. heheh

i am just kidding with you .it's just a lil confusing on what your asking and how you are explaining it.but if there's a way we'll get the sucka
