Solved 📣 Refer a friend

[adam]

Hey everybody!

I am enormously grateful to everybody here who shares our links and recommends us to new members. I was very keen to make sure that these people are recognised (and maybe tempt a few more of you to spread the love 😉).

Every user now has their own referral link which can be found on their referral page (also available on your account dropdown menu).

This link will remember visitors even if they sign-up after a bit of browsing or time and you will receive a Webwide notification when you receive a sign-up.

Your first referral will earn you the 'Refer a Friend' trophy!
There will be more tiers of this trophy coming very soon.

You can see all of the users you have referred on your referral page and there is also a leaderboard now live on the Members page.

I can say that there will be a holiday referral drive launching next week with real prizes, but you can get a head start now if you like as all referrals will count.

I'd love your feedback on this new feature and am excited to see if anything comes from it. 😄

Good idea and done already. 🥳

Seems Firefox doesn't like the referral link box. I can't select, copy/paste from it. Works fine in Chrome.

Further research shows this is a well known 'bug' in Firefox. Weird.

In any case, good idea. 👍

Thanks Evan! Will find a workaround for Firefox, well spotted. 🙂

clipboard.js? Or does it also not work? 🤔

A modern approach to copy text to clipboard. No Flash. No frameworks. Just 3kb gzipped
