classified Website Referral Program Scheme

[RajaSekar]

Idea to improve site traffic

below idea will encourage the user to share our website to others to increase the site traffic

On every successful registration using the below link, user will get a Referral Point or money.

http://example.com/user/register?ref=11152

   or

including text box on registration form named as referel id

showing top earners on homepage sidebar

Avoid fake registration to get points or money(
Record registrator ip and distinct the ip address and then finalize the point)

great idea,

I prefer Point assessment,
is it kind of plugin that we need to realize this assessment?

[RajaSekar]

I am going to make this feature as plugin.

But i have a confusion how to get the ref param and store into database.

If anyone have idea how to get param and store into db.

Plz Share your opinion.

Hi,
@RajaSekar,
with hook user_register_form you can add inputs to the form,
with hook before_user_register you can fetch their value, before user creation.
And finaly with osc_run_hook('user_register_completed', $userId) ; you can save it or whatever you want
