Description:
REFERRALS MOD v2.0.1
Introduction
A simpe modification for members to refer new members and see who referred who. Modification versions 2.0 and below made by karlbenson, all later development by YodaOfDarkness.
If you're using a non-custom theme I recommend the Modification Parser by Daniel 15 to get the manual theme edits required.
Features
o Adds a referral link to each users profile area
 :: http://www.fustrate.com/forum/index.php?referredby=1 - where 1 is the user ID
o Users can then paste the link to whoever they want to invite - suitable for email, signatures, messengers, webpages, forums etc
o When a guest/visitor uses the referral link a 'tracking' cookie is placed on their computer, so they can browse away from the link and register on your forum upto 60 days later (unless cookies are deleted) with the referral credited to the referring user.
o If no referral cookie is found, prospective members can type in a name to be their referral
o Adds 2 Referral stats section showing;
 :: Top 5 Referrers (By Referrals)
 :: Top 5 Referrers (By Referred Members Posts)
 :: Daily/Monthly/Yearly Referrals Stats
o Total Referrals of each user shown in the poster information of each post
o Referrals information shown in Profile Summary
 ::  Shows referral link in profile
 ::  Shows number of referrals
 ::  Dropdown showing each member user has referred (Linked to the members profile pages)
