📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR removes embedded email referral forms from the cohort join page and replaces them with direct links to https://portal.raidguild.org/join. Referral prop threading is removed from the page hierarchy, and both CohortHero and JoinUs components are refactored to display portal-join CTAs with analytics tracking instead of email submission flows.

Changes

Cohort Join Page Portal Migration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Portal join destination constant src/lib/data/constants.ts	New PORTAL_JOIN_URL export pointing to https://portal.raidguild.org/join provides a single reference for all component CTAs.
Remove referral prop plumbing from page hierarchy src/app/join/page.tsx, src/components/JoinUsSection.tsx	Home page component no longer accepts searchParams for referral extraction; JoinUsSection removes referral prop forwarding and renders JoinUs without props.
Refactor CohortHero component to portal CTA src/components/CohortHero.tsx	Component shifts from email form to portal-join button: removed form-related imports, added trackPortalJoinClick handler that logs analytics event with location: "cohort_hero" and destination: "portal_join", and replaced form UI with centered button linking to PORTAL_JOIN_URL.
Refactor JoinUs component to portal CTA src/components/JoinUs.tsx	Component simplified from email-referral form to portal CTA wrapper: imports updated, component body reworked with trackPortalJoinClick handler, deterministic image selection retained, and UI replaced with portal-focused copy and "Begin My Quest" button navigating to PORTAL_JOIN_URL.

Poem

🐰 No more forms to fill, just a portal link so bright,
CohortHero and JoinUs now guide seekers to the quest site,
Analytics track their clicks with purpose and care,
PORTAL_JOIN_URL shared—one destination, fair!
