When I enable I get server error 500.

Edit, seems to be when I enable: Display referral contests on board index:
Edit again, ah, if I create a contest all is well. I don't understand the contest side of things though, can people refer others without contests?

Hmmm, I don't understand it. How do you refer somebody?

Edit:

Found it in UCP.

How does this work exactly?
Do I send a link?

Could you please add a feature that restricts users' registration by invitation only? And the users will invite their friends by sending invitation codes?
I really needed that feature, thank you.

Hi dmzx,

it looks like the referrals get counted twice. Is it just me?

Thanks for the great extension!

Love this, very close to something I was looking / hoping for! Our forum rewards users for referrals but its very very manual right now!

Maybe not the right place for suggestions but would love to see it send a PM to a specific user or a usergroup (Like admins) to say X has referred X person.

Is this setup to work with Ultimate Points? If not, Where would I edit to add the sql_query to add points?

EDIT: I figured it out. Now my members earn 25 points per referral.

I have looked into the code and found that by adding ?r={USER_ID_HERE} after your url, Who ever's id is entered will get credit for the referral. It looks like a cookie is created for 365 days. When someone with the cookie registers the referrer who's id it is will get the credit.

Do you perhaps want to share the code?
