wadboram Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I want to add a referral system to my membership site that saves cookies. Where the steps go like this: Registration >> Member info. entered in database, and referral link given out like mysite.com/ref.php?id=xxx >> Page has sql/php coding which then adds +1 in the users referral row. I found this code <?php include("connect.php"); //make sure we connect to the database first $user = $_GET['user']; if(!$user){ //echo out site normally } else { $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE user='$user' LIMIT 1"); $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql); $referal = $row['users_referals']; //Get whats in that field $referaladd = $referal +1; //I am not sure on this as ive not used math operators in php before, but basically your adding one onto whats in the db $add = mysql_query("UPDATE members SET users_referals = '$referaladd' WHERE user = '$user'"); //Update the db with the users referals echo "You were refered by $user"; //echo out rest of the site } ?> Does this help?
