Referral Contests by Siropu

Referral Contests by Siropu [Paid] 1.1.7

No permission to buy (€29.99)
Just a suggestion..... I've thought about getting this addon custom made before but with some differences you might want to consider.


Just referring new members doesn't mean much if those new members don't participate.

So, assign points based on what the referred users do. For example, total up not only the number of users, but also total up the number of posts with more then 100 characters in them that those new users made. (so we aren't counting 1-2 word fluff posts)

Maybe assign points for each photo uploaded by the new members. Maybe assign points if the new members create Showcase items. Maybe assign points to how many days those new members login to the site. (so a new member who comes to the site every day gets more points that the member who just signs up and never comes back)

Stuff like that. Basically, measure how active to the site those new members are and rewarding the user who referred them. I would rather have 5 new very active users then 50 inactive users.
 
That sounds like a completely different add-on since the main feature of this add-on are contests. Maybe I can make some improvements for 2.0. We'll see.
 
I've upgraded today and see that Top 10 feature, unfortunately, is not showing top 10 referrers with valid referrals, it's simply showing top 10 referrers list which we already knew from the sidebar in a popup overlay, also goodbye top 3 valid referrers.

Can you make it count Top 10 valid referrers?
 
Indeed I've found a bug with it. It displays referrals past the contest end date. But I don't understand what you mean by "goodbye top 3 valid referrers".

You setup to show top 3 valid referrers(count only referrals that reach minimum posts), that top 3 is not displayed in the new TOP 10.
 
I installed and it show top 10, now what I don't like is that if a top referrer cheated, and it did on my forum, I banned him, he still shows on that TOP 10, and I was thinking, ok let me delete this guy, but now shows a guest is on top 10, and has a valid referral :)). Not good, obviously many try to cheat in contests, once they are banned or deleted to disappear from top 10 as well.
 
Try editing the contest and save it without any changes. It should clear the cache.
I edit a word from contest description couple times, refresh the page and still showing Guest on 3rd place because he had 1 referral but since I found him with multiple accounts he was banned and then deleted him as explained above. Anything else I could try?
 
If you deleted the referrer, it will show a blank space for the username under the "Referred By" column in referrals list so you can delete those.

After search 100+ pages I found him, and indeed deleting him solved the problem. Thanks!

ah, no. Maybe I didn't explain it better. My suggestion was a way to better account for more valuable members - not just a simple x referrals, but x referrals that actually contribute and participate in the site.

There's a feature called "Referral Minimum Posts" and you set your amount to count them valid only if that referral has made x posts.

In the next update if possible make it so when you click to see top 10 we can also see their avatars, without them is looking ugly.

Thanks. I know that. Please read my previous post before you comment. Your commenting without all the information.
 
I purchased this add-on but can't find the extra add-on with [DBTech] Credits integration! Can you point me in the right direction?
