Prevent strip of affiliate url parameter in buddypress

    Hello Brajesh

    I run a affiliate program and I created a unique buddypress field called (referrer ID) = field_7189

    Now the affiliate url being shared is https://site.com/sign-up/?ref=mike

    When new referrals visit the page https://site.com/sign-up/?ref=mike I want the affiliate username (mike) to be automatically inserted into the buddypress referrer ID text field = field_7189

    The problem now is when users visit the url https://site.com/sign-up/?ref=mike, the affliate parameter (?ref=mike) is being removed immediately from the url leaving only https://site.com/sign-up/

    Please how can I achieve this

    Hi Tosin,
    Thank you for the post.

    This issue is not caused by BuddyPress. I will suggest looking for other active plugins/theme/code for the root of the issue.
