Sharing Widget

The Sharing Widget looks similar to the Advocate Dashboard widget but serves a different purpose. It’s designed for current subscribers to view their participation status, access their unique referral URL, and check their number of referrals and any rewards they have unlocked. Unlike the Advocate Dashboard, this widget does not allow new signups directly through it.

Install this widget if you:

  • Want a Stand-Alone Landing Page: Use it as a dedicated page to showcase your referral program for users who are already subscribed.

  • Use a Custom Signup Form: Redirect users to a page with the Sharing Widget after they sign up through your own form.

  • Identify Users through Other Means: Display the Sharing Widget to users identified by other methods (e.g., login on your web app).

Important Note: Users who are not already subscribed will not be able to sign up through this widget and will see an "email not found" error message.

User Experience:

  1. Automatic Identification: The subscriber is identified automatically. If identification fails, the user will be prompted to check their status or "login."

  2. Sharing Screen: Once identified, the subscriber will see the sharing screen, where they can access their referral link and view their status.
