Yes I am using the correct template, though I have made changes to both of them just in case.
I have made certain I am using the correct template in my configuration but again I have made changes to all three (my own, portal and default) just to make sure.
I have made sure that the option to register without buying a product is enabled and that the affiliate program is enabled.
At this point the only thing I can think of is that syntax (code) I am using to display the added connect is wrong.
For instance this is how I am getting the register link to show up:
{if !$loggedin}
<br><p align="left"><a href="../billing/register.php">Sign me up! I want to be an affiliate</a><br>
{/if}
I must be missing something or simply don't have the correct syntax.
Any further help would be greatly appreciated.
