Sharing your referral link
The copy button, the per-channel tags, and exactly which controls on the page work today.
4 min read
The link panel exists so that sharing costs one press rather than assembling a URL by hand or remembering a code. The copying is genuinely wired and works today. What the link points at is not yet yours, and that distinction is worth being precise about before you send anything.
Do not share the link that is on the page today. It is sample data and it is the same for every reader, so it credits nobody — least of all you. The copy button works, but what it copies is a placeholder until the programme opens.
How copying works
Press Copy link and the link goes to your clipboard. The press itself is real and it works — but nothing appears on screen to confirm it, and that is a fault rather than a design choice. The panel does ask for a confirmation message on both outcomes; it is written against a notification engine this app does not run, so the message is never drawn.
The consequence is worth stating plainly, because it is the opposite of what a silent button usually means. A copy that SUCCEEDS looks like nothing happened. A copy that FAILS — a denied clipboard permission, a page not served over a secure connection, an older browser — also looks like nothing happened. The button cannot currently tell you which of the two you got.
- So confirm it yourself — paste once, somewhere harmless, before you send anything. It is one extra step and it is the only check available today.
- The field is selectable on purpose — it is read-only, so you cannot edit the link by accident, but it is a real field you can select from and copy by hand. That is the fallback when the button has not worked.
The per-channel links
Each row in the panel’s channel table has its own small copy button, and it does not copy a different link — it copies the same link with a source tag added to the end, one tag per row. That tag is how a breakdown by channel is meant to be produced, since a click can only be attributed to where it was posted if the link it came from says so. Nothing in Alltra reads the tag yet, so today it is a marker you are carrying ahead of the thing that will count it.
Six channels are listed — Discord, Instagram, YouTube, X, TikTok, and Direct. The first five take their own brand mark; Direct takes a plain link glyph instead, because it is the catch-all for sharing that belongs to no platform rather than a service with a logo. Note that its row still hands you a tagged link, the same as the other five — the bare, untagged link is what the main Copy link button gives you.
The bars beside each row are scaled to the leading channel rather than to the total. That is deliberate — the question a channel breakdown answers is which of these is working best, and against a combined total every bar would be a stub too short to compare.
What your account already has
A referral code is generated for your account when you register, so there is nothing to request or set up. The panel is simply not reading yours yet — it is showing a worked example instead, which is why the link is identical for everyone looking at it.
Controls that do nothing yet
Three parts of this page are in place ahead of what sits behind them. They are named here so you can stop wondering whether you are pressing them wrong.
- Edit referral code — the small pencil beside the link heading. Renaming a code is intended, and the control is where it will live.
- The Recent Referrals menu — its Edit and Remove items are inert, like every other dashboard widget menu on a card that is not yet on a board you can rearrange.
- The contact rows — they do not open Discord or an email client yet.
Everything else on the page reads rather than writes: nothing you press here changes your account, and the one thing that reaches outside the page is the clipboard, which is the reason the warning at the top is a warning rather than a footnote. When the programme opens, the terms fill in and the figures become yours — the page you are looking at now is the page you will get.
