Wordpress PHP Plugin Downline Builder

Hi Fellow Warriors,

I'm working on a membership site with a referral program but I can't seem to find a way to add a downline-builder to my site. Basically, you can make money from referring the site[1](membership site) and by the program[2] that I mention in my membership site.

So what I want to add is an entry form where the user enters his or her referral link so that new members to the membership site[1] will join the program[2] under him or her, similar to downline builders of traffic-exchanges.

If there isn't a plugin, then PHP script should do the job.

Hope you guys can help me

    Hi,

    Any good affiliate management plugin will work... like i know DAP works for this.

    Here is tip, most people do not use word DOWNLINE.... they use word Multi-Teir ... so you may search for this in google:

    "multi tier affiliate program plugin wordpress"

    I see many plugins and blog posts listed for this.

    Hope this give you few ideas.

    Thanks for chiming in you guys, but what I'm looking for is something along the lines of this:
    I want the user to be able to enter his or her referral url in [1] where it would update on [2] and new users referred by that first user would click on that persons referral link.

    We introduced this feature in DAP a few months ago.

    We call it DAP "Upline" - basically a shortcode called [DAPUpline] that allows you (site admin) to display the person's upline's affiliate code to the person. So in effect, it is a downline builder.

    1) John joins your site
    2) John fills out profile with (say) his ClickBank nickname
    3) John refers Adam
    4) When Adam logs in, he sees affiliate link to some xyz third party product, but CB nick in the affiliate link is replaced with John's CB nickname.

    5) Adam fills out his profile with his own CB nickname
    6) Adam refers Jill
    7) When Jill logs in, she sees affiliate link to same third party product, but cbnickname is replaced with Adam's CB nickname.

    This can be done with any number of third-party programs, as long as the nickname can be easily replaced with the info provided by the upline affiliate.

    DAP even takes this one step further.

    When Jill joins through Adam's DAP affiliate link, if Adam has not filled out his CB nickname in his profile, then the third-party CB link shows CB Nickname of Site Admin in its place.

    So if an affiliate fails to claim his affiliate link, then site admin gets credit for it (and all such links).

    Hope this helps.

      Wow that is exactly what I want! Would I have to replace the current membership site plugin, s2member, to use DAP? Could I just use this DAP Up line feature and continue using S2member?

      Webdevelopmentgroup, i never received a Pm from you.

        You would have to use DAP in order to use the Upline feature - it cannot be used separately without DAP.

    Please stop messaging me about your coding abilities. For those of you that are also interested in a downline builder, I went with DAP
