Great! Installed.. :)

thank you very much for your comment! :D

It seems like no problems so far... Installed

Once they visit the reffer link, it takes them to a page w/many red X's.

thank you bro.

thanks for installed

what do you mean I don't understand you :confused:

[EagleNick]

Very nice! Works perfect ;)

[goranbaxy]

this is very nice

[tschai]

Works like a charm!
Installed and nominated!

Sagol, usta!

[Mum]

Wonderful! Installed :)

[KeyStalker]

Had this installed a while back (well anther custom one) but I thank you for releasing this one.

[midlandi]

Nice and easy, if I can do it anyone can!!!

[Mum]

Is there any way it can check if the email is already used, before it sends the invite?

[droid101]

What does "Delete their own invites" mean, anyway? They can ban the people they invited?

[Saviour]

Can multiple recipients be added to this...or just one at a time? If so...how do you separate the e-mail addresses?

Also...

I really don't think it's a good idea to let any member...or usergroup, for that matter, other than Admins...have the ability to change the text of the e-mail in any shape or form. This is just asking for trouble.

Even though this mod is not supported...I think you should disallow any change to the email text...unless it's usergroup controlled or done through the product's xml install file. Know what I mean?

Who's to say that a spammer, who get's registered on one's forum, or a disgruntled member, will use this feature to send out an e-mail from my forum with inappropriate context.

Although I have installed this mod...I have to limit its use to Staff members until you can address my concerns.

Nice mod, though...

[Hasann]

that will be added next version ;)
I have to do list. I saved this suggestion first

No, that mean which usergroups can delete their sent invites...

Nice mod, though...

Now in this version selected usergroups can send just one at a time. But in next version can selected usergroups send multiple invites at a time. And last one will be added in next version usergroups cant edit their invite email text.. :)

thanks guys for your great suggestions... :eek:

[Saviour]

Something else you may want to look into...

If an Admin is going to allow other usergroups to use this feature...shouldn't it be moderated?

Scenario:

Let's say the Admin has given Registered users permission to use this feature so they can send out one, or multiple, e-mails. Who's to say they're not spamming?

Don't you think it would be better to limit the number of e-mails one can send? Also...wouldn't it be a good idea to view these e-mails before they are actually sent?

I know that I wouldn't want a registered member using this feature to spam another forum's members...or anyone else, for that matter.

I'm not picking this mod apart...I just think there should be certain areas of it that need a little more attention.

I'd actually like to commend you on a mod that has a lot of potential...should these problem areas be addressed.

I look forward to your newest release so that I can give all of our members the ability to use it, so that membership registrations will increase.

Keep up the great work!

[Dragons76]

nice one but i get this when i click on it

Your invite is either not valid or has already been used

any idea

[Dragons76]

Nobody can help with this error ??

[iogames]

Ok... the system works fine in all its functions, but for some reason I can't see the link on 'Edit Profile' or can't place it on NavBar, just on QuickLinks...

What can I do?

p.s. Well I tried to erase old/previous invitations, didn't work

[l0streflecti0n]

edit ... not sending invite .. tried to send to 2 diff emails

[ivanstanchev]

Works 10x

[Dragons76]

I am under VB 3.6.8

When I send an invitation to an address mail other than mine (that recorded in my forum), the message does not arrive on limps her mail given.

[MrD3SAi]

When will the next version be released? Will include ability to limit # of invites the user can have?

[DssCrazy]

Does not work bro. when sending user invite it all works ok but when thay click link and reg it does not add to the person referal stat.

[DssCrazy]

also what is with that stupid note? it says (note if you see this then their is somthing wrong with your referal link? it even says it in your pic so it can't be somthing we are doing wrong
Thanks

[atlambros83]

istalled but does not show in the left menu of the usercp for me haven't tested it yet but it looks nice. :-) lol

[atlambros83]

tested it, referral system does not work. how can i edit the rest of what the email says? like the note: if you see this then their is somthing wrong with your referal link and i'd like to change where it says "from the home page team" and insert the website name or something else.

[atlambros83]

sorry for the triple post here but also it does not show that the invitation has been accepted where it shows invitations sent. i'm sure it has to do with the referral system not working.

[DssCrazy]

tested it, referral system does not work. how can i edit the rest of what the email says? like the note: if you see this then their is somthing wrong with your referal link and i'd like to change where it says "from the home page team" and insert the website name or something else.Nice bro you ecplained it all for me. everything i wanted to say you said thanks lol

[noj75]

Although I have installed this mod...I have to limit its use to Staff members until you can address my concerns.

Nice mod, though...

An Easy little fix for this could be:

Edit template > invite_usercp

Find:

<textarea name="message" rows="10" cols="50" wrap="nowrap" style="width:$stylevar[messagewidth]">$invitemessage</textarea>


Replace With:

<textarea readonly="readonly" name="message" rows="10" cols="50" wrap="nowrap" style="width:$stylevar[messagewidth]">$invitemessage</textarea>



Just add a simple "readonly" to the form. Yes or no?

[apiasto]

kool n easy thnx

[brfrankl]

Would really like to see the ability for the admin to see and manage all invites that the users have created (so the admins can delete invites by username or something like that) Also, woul dbe nice if they expired

[theparentpack]

Installed! Nominated!!!

[bobbaf3nn]

The screnshots of the ACP are in a different language, is there an english version available?

[Saviour]

On the Invitation screen, at the bottom there is a list of invitations sent.

I was testing the "Delete" feature. I clicked the link to delete the invitation, it lets me know the invitation was deleted, but the invitation is still listed at the bottom of the page.

I see you have a similar mod for vBulletin 3.7...which is still BETA, and you're supporting that mod, but not this one. Why is that? Most vbulletin users are using 3.6.9 and older.

It would be nice if you could at least reply to some of the questions being asked here...

BTW...noj75...

Thanks for the code edit...works like a charm!

[mahsazn]

The screnshots of the ACP are in a different language, is there an english version available?
u mean Eng. version for screen shots? (the product is in english and u can chang it to any language manually)

[ProAzn]

I'm on vbulletin 3.6.8. Doesn't work. Send to various emails and nothing show up. Argh!

I see other people have same problem. No one answering??

[ProAzn]

Is the email sent asap or is there a delay? It doesnt send immediately or at all. Anyone else have same thing happen?

[iogames]

Thanks Hassan I know/notice that you're always busy, but I really like/need this and will install again! :D:D:D

[Saviour]

Installed and allowed overwrite of product...made template changes as well. Edited the options through vbulletin options to allow specific usergroups to use the invitation system using comma separated values.

The links appear in Quick Links, as well as the User CP, however...I have no access to use the invitation system. I keep getting redirected to the no access error page.

Something's not kosher in Denmark, here.

Any suggestions?

[Hasann]

please uninstall v1.0.4 on your forum and re-install the new version 2.0.2 xml file into via product manager

[Garyk]

I get a database error when trying to invite someone

[Saviour]

please uninstall v1.0.4 on your forum and re-install the new version 2.0.2 xml file into via product manager


Okay...done.

I now have access to the Invitation system...however, the Invitation system does not show the user the text of the message being sent, so if they add additional text...they will not know what other content is being sent...other than what they, themselves, have typed.

Also...Human verification is not working...

Is this the same as image verification? If it is, I have it enabled, but the message is being sent without verification.

Suggestions?

[Saviour]

Actually...the Human Verification Manager is a 3.7 feature...and not for 3.6.8 PL2.

So you may want to update this mod...again...so that we can use Image Verification with this mod. You may also want to update the information in the Admin CP, as well, so that this doesn't confuse everyone.

[mahsazn]

please uninstall v1.0.4 on your forum and re-install the new version 2.0.2 xml file into via product manager
it couldn't use it, so i uninstalled the new version and reinstalled the old one... my problem was with temp edition in USERRCP_SHELL ... the phrase didn't appear in user cp!

[DssCrazy]

Where do you set how many invites members can have it is set to 10 and don't have a clue how to change. also in the user cp in the left colume i don't see the option to click invite user is this normal? i now see it at the top of user cp page.

Thanks

[DssCrazy]

Can you add the option in the email so that if the user that gets the invite does not want to join thay can click a link and denie?

[DssCrazy]

what is the USERCP_SHELL Template for?

[thedudleys]

we have installed this new update, but when you go to yourself, it denies you access, unless i missed something since we used this on a different template and it doesn't have the:
$template_hook[usercp_main_pos1]

so we added this the best way, and the system has us as allowed to access it(usergroup 6) but still locks us out.

how can we adjust this...our code has "$template_hook[usercp_navbar_bottom]" so i added it after that and it doesn't allow us to get into the system.

how can we get this fixed?

[megawelle]

I get a database error when trying to invite someone


I also do. The error ist as follows:

Invalid SQL:

Try uninstalling and re-installing the product.

This can be set when looking at a specific user option page.

This isn't optimal... I was hoping there would be a way to make it infinite use for everyone. But to do this it looks like I'd have to go through each user one by one and set it, since there is no option in the Usergroup Manager.

Is this intentional?

[Saviour]

Hassan...

Are you working on the Image Verification fix for this mod? The Human Verification Manager you refer to for this mod is for 3.7 and not 3.6.x. The Human Verification Manager is also referred to in the Admin CP, so that will need to be addressed for those who are still using 3.6.x., as well.

Hope to hear back from you soon on this one...

[Hasann]

yes im working yet fixing bugs and adding new features

[abmm]

yes im working yet fixing bugs and adding new features

The top feature would be to limit specific usergroups to x amount of invites. Say usergroup 1 has only 2 invites each, while usergroup 2 has 5 invites each (etc etc). Also, allowing the Administration/Staff access to view all of the invites that are being sent.

Thanks man, this is a great add-on ;) and with a few simple modifications - like the ones I listed above, this will be one of the best add-on's to come out for VB in a while :)

The top feature would be to limit specific usergroups to x amount of invites. Say usergroup 1 has only 2 invites each, while usergroup 2 has 5 invites each (etc etc). Also, allowing the Administration/Staff access to view all of the invites that are being sent.

:)


This is definitely one of the top updates I would love to see for this :up:

[iogames]

yes im working yet fixing bugs and adding new features

then I will wait

[theparentpack]

Is there any way for us to increase the # of invites our users can send where we don't have to go into each users accounts to change it one by one?

Had a minor problem with the first release. It kind of made an error when they where completing their registration, so we thought we could fix it by upgrading with this new version. Only made it worse... This is what we get as soon as one tries to invite a player to the site.

also if you go to your admincp and del a user on the page that says: Deleted user successfully. on the top you will get this error

includes/class_dm_user.php(1843 : eval()'D code on line 14

Can you fix?

Thanks

[NNJJ]

I had to uninstall and reinstall the old one its working

[socalrico]

Hassan,

which directions do I follow. the one posted on the VBulletin.org site or the html page in the download. I found that the 2 directions have different content.

[xplan2007]

->Do template edits:
In USERCP_SHELL Template Find this Code

I cannot find and edit for what.

I edit only in
In USERCP Template Find this Code

and it works

[Hell Fox]

This does not work, I install it and I get this SQL error:
SELECT user.userid AS user_id, user.email AS user_email, invitation.email AS inv_email, invitation.acceptedby as inv_id

[BadgerDog]

Installed... thanks ... :)

I'm a little confused though....

How does the user know what the default "invitation_email_body" text is? When they click to invite someone, they see the field for the email address and a large blank field to customize the message. Is the custom message below supposed to show up in the box as the default? If so, on my system it doesn't... :confused:

$vbphrase[invitation_email_body]
Text Hello there; This invitation was sent to you by {1}

You have been invited to join the {2} forums.
To sign up please visit the following page.

Thank you, The {2} Team..

Never mind... figured it out. It's a message box that ADDS personal comments to the standard message that the user doesn't see. I've changed the message talking about the user's real name etc., which better explains it.

We are getting the same error, though our copy was never upgraded - Fresh install of latest 3.6 version.

Have disabled it until a fix is released :)

[karabaja3]

hi there.

this Product is not working on v3.6.10.

Any upgrades soon?

[iogames]

Yes, I've been waiting on this to close any 'further development' on my board

[karthik123]

I just installed on 3.6.8. gives me this error:


Database error in vBulletin 3.6.8:

Invalid SQL:
SELECT user.userid AS user_id, user.email AS user_email, invitation.email AS inv_email, invitation.acceptedby as inv_id

WHERE user.email = 'someone@gmail.com'
OR invitation.email = 'someone@gmail.com';

MySQL Error : Unknown column 'user.userid' in 'field list'
Error Number : 1054

That makes sense, 'user.userid' is an unknown column becuase the query isn't 'from vb_user as user left join vb_invitation as invitation'

I am getting the same database errors after updating. Is there any fix for that yet ?

In the query change
FROM XXXXXXuser
LEFT JOIN XXXXXXinvitation
to
FROM XXXXXXuser as user
LEFT JOIN XXXXXXinvitation as invitation

Ok I think this is the major hack that I need to add and launch my site...
mr Hasann, any news on the Gold Version of this hack?

[Cyborg86]

Great mod. Thanks.

I had this SAME EXACT issue. Seems that many of us had the same issue. Can the developer please respond?

In the query change
FROM XXXXXXuser
LEFT JOIN XXXXXXinvitation
to

FROM XXXXXXuser as user
LEFT JOIN XXXXXXinvitation as invitation


I tried this fix and it got me a bit further along, but I'm still getting errors. Here's the new one (my prefix is sg_ so that part is valid):

Invalid SQL:
SELECT * FROM sg_invitation
WHERE invitation.email = 'myemail@myemailhost.com'
AND invitation.acceptedby = 0
AND invitation.accepted = 0;

Does anyone know of any other invitation systems out there or is this the only one? It looks really promising but it's not working out of the box so I'm interested in trying some other alternatives.

[Seiyaboy]

Anyone know if this mod will conflict with the mod vMail (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=162642)?

Thanks a bunch.

[Ossedis]

Thanks, works like a charm :)

[dxlwebs]
