When I forward content, nothing is happening with referral code--that I'm aware of. Not record or sending referral, referral visiting, or any credit when the new referral registers.

Is there a way to manually insert referral id into a url so that regardless of how the content is shared, the referral code gets recognized, like

mysite.com/content/anylink/?referral=45fr334
or mysite.com/content/anylink/&referral=45fr334
or mysite.com/referral/45fr334/content/anylink

I have the user referral module, and forward module on my site, and they work together correctly..??

Make sure you have the "Referral Forward" module of the User Referral project enabled too?

If you do, the "forward" link should be modified to something like "referral/746579ac/node/37251" - though this does, in itself, seem to have an issue: #1347626: Referral Forward doesn't work, redirected to homepage

Actually. Should add, this is in D7 beta 4..?

I am having the same problem. The only link that I can find is the "send an e-Postcard" link in the nav menu. When I send an email using that link, it doesn't add the referal link to the email sent out. Is there another link perhaps that I am unaware of?

I have the Referral Forward, User Referral 2 and forward modules and all are enabled.

Any help would be great!

I stopped using the forward module with user referral. User referral is not really supported. You're basically on your own so any kind of forwarding I do is with the referral code already in the link such as : www.yoursite.com/referral/777fh654?destination=node/320. This will take the user to node 320 and also deposit the referral cookie on their computer.
