I setup the script and added some users for testing, but when i go to the join now section, this is what i get:
Pay $10.00 to your sponsor -
Pay $10.00 to your random sponsor - Site Admin
Pay the admin fee ($10.00)
It isnt pulling any names and i can't figure out why. I even tried adding more users and that didnt work. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is a fresh install.
Thank you. |

First you need to make sure you have a least two members in the database. Then you need to clear the cookies from your computer. This should make it so that sponsors appear.

Ah i see now. So once someone goes to the site for the first time, they are permanently attached to whatever people show up the first time? Thats what it seems like. Is there any way to make it randomize everytime someone refreshes or visits the page though? It seems like it would be hard to explain to my users that they have to delete their cookies to see the random results.
*update* This is so odd. I have 7 people added so far and i completely deleted all my cookies, and still, whenever i click on the "join now" button, i get nothing but this and it still doesnt seem to be randomizing:
Pay $10.00 to your sponsor - Site Admin
Pay $10.00 to your random sponsor - Site Admin
Pay the admin fee ($10.00) |

The script works like this:
-when a user comes the first time to your page,he gets a sponsor and a random sponsor.
Only the sponsor is stored in the cookies,the random sponsor will be different if the user visits the page after a while.
To see a different sponsor/random combinatin,you'll have to use a "sponsorring link"- something like: www.site.com/of/USER_HERE (if you have 2.4) or www.site.com/promo.php?from=USER_HERE if you have a previous version.
Regards,
Daniel |

Would there be any way to make it not dependant on cookies and just randomize everytime? I dont know why but on my computers, I just cant get it to randomize. I had a friend go to the site and he also just saw:
Pay $10.00 to your sponsor - Site Admin
Pay $10.00 to your random sponsor - Site Admin
Pay the admin fee ($10.00) |

| This is the exact same thing happening on my site. The admin account is always the random sponsor. |
