Link to us block

It's not a completed block.  It must have gotten in there by accident as the promote.php file that gives them the code for the buttons isn't included.

I don't have a promote.php?

Yes.  That's what I said.  It's an unfinished block.  It doesn't work.

😮 Silly me! 😛 Okay, sorry!

Hi

there is a code for promote.php which I got from another thread but forgot what board. Here is the php code copied from my file. Make a promote.php page in your editor, save it to your website in main root / directory.
