Nice hack but I have no use for it :)

looking great, nice addon :D

*clicks install

One question, how do you raise the number of Invitations that you can send for the already registered members, like me for an instance???

Right now you have to wait until the Cron raises it for you.
However, I will add that control in the user admin in the next release.

well it says for all the New Registrations? so will it do it for the already registered members also?

New invites are just getting a no permissions page when following the link in mail.. I tested and verified.
But when clicking the regular register link they get the must be invited error
Using VB 3.5.1

This is a great and useful mod for me if this can be worked out.

Any ideas?

You probably didn't adjust your settings in your AdminCP vBulletin Settings --> Invites System.

Try putting the Registration by Invites Only to No. For the Mail error, I have no idea :(

Great hack, thanks :)

I would also like to reccommend a new feature also for the next release again Psionic.

The ability to send multiple invites at the same time...when you don't have any invitation limits. As I have recognized that when I have announced this mod on my forums that alot more people were motivated to invite people because it was so easy, but I don't really want to give them a limit...

Thanks for replying gamebgs but that only opens up registrations again

I did find the cause and have it working now

In usergroup admin I had to give Unregistered / Not Logged In users access to view the forum

It is now working but I would like to fix it to where I can reset these permissions to how they where. There never was problems accessing the register page before for anyone

I tried installing it perfectly ... also everything is set on on the admincp but still i see this error:

---------------------------------

Database error in vBulletin 3.5.0:

please help

weird... never saw this error before...try reinstalling the product...(uninstall it before)

how do you uninstall .. do i press on delete?

no, you go to Manage Products in your Admin CP then choose Invites Sytem and click on Uninstall.

nope same problem exists ... do we have to do anythin gin the usergroup settings or something ... ???

Is it possible that, i can have "normal area" where People can register and use for normal and an additional area which can only be used by invited people?

TABLE_PREFIX is missing from the install code.

ok how come? ... so how do i go about it?

If someone registers through the invite system does it add to the amount of user a member has referred?

maybe an option to import your yahoo / hotmail contacts so you can invite them..... that would be cool i think kinda like myspace ;)

I am getting an error on registration - it still works, but the error is coming up

Parse error: parse error in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\XXXXX\XXX\register.php(328) : eval()'d code on line 21

Also could you look at getting the referrer line filled in with the user who sends the invote?

It would be cool wouldn't it?? Import Msn Contacts... (must register first to import & member gets referal points to the people they invite - test if you like)

I saw the admincp screenshot, so I understand that I can turn the invite system on and still let non-invited users to register right?

yes, this can be set to off...

No. The AdminCP only specified the value that is inserted into the database during registration. Of course, already registered members have the same default value.
You can fix that by running the following query:
[SQL]UPDATE user SET invites = XX[/SQL]
Make sure to change XX to your number.

What is your current hack configuration? E.g. list values of admincp settings, as you have 'em set up.

I will make it a no-limits when the "Registration Dependency" is set to off.

I'll check that out.
"TABLE_PREFIX is missing from the install code." -> yeah, that. Will fix.

You wait for the next release. That's why the hack is in "Beta" stage.

Yes.

Read the hack features before asking questions.

Not planned.

Excellent! Truly a great hack.

LOL, I just thought that was a tottaklly different hack.

I havnt had any problems whatsoever withtthis. Just would like to see the addittions added to it. Not IM contacts though LOL.

Great Extension! Thank you for your efforts!

Thanks for the response and I love the hack BTW.

Perhaps that is why I am getting the parse error as the referrer field is not being filled in automatically.

I get the parse error on both invited and non invited registrations. Can you help with this please

After much editing to correct the table prefix problems :p installed...and it works great :)

Idea for another release: a way for Admins to delete requests...any maybe usergroups too?

Which registration step do you get the error on?

That is for "Automatic Expiration" is for. Requests expire automatically after a (configurable) amount of days passes. There is no point in deleting requests manually.

CHANGES: Lots. See Post #1.
UPDATED SCREENSHOTS: Three. See Post #1.
FEATURES: Updated. Re-reading suggested.
MISC INFO: Hack is not in beta-stage anymore.

HOW TO UPDATE:
1. Overwrite the product XML with the new one.
2. Re-do template changes. ALL of them.
3. Re-upload the three PHP files to their appropriate places.
4. Enjoy the effects.

out of context but where is the rap battle system? i dont see it in your hack list

From register.php

after filling in every field and pressing the "complete reistration" button, you get the next page confirming an email has been sent out to your address. At the top of that, I get the parse error.

I also get the same if it takes you to the "errors occured during registration" screen if the user has not filled in registration properly.

The error has been fixed in version 1.0.1. Verified and confirmed.

Hows the to- do list looking now? I would still like to see an option to add usergroups that cant use this. Also I would like to see an option for admin approval of the invites before they are sent.

If you looked at the changelog, the question wouldn't arise.

Sorry, this is not going to happen.

Fair point...another idea...turning off the feature per user so you can prevent abuse...?

Hmm... Even though this is easy to do.. I don't see the real point having such feature. Why can't you either make a new usergroup that cannot use this hack, or - set a high post limit, so that by the time the user has enough posts, he would be already banned for misbehavement?

how do we upgrade the product, just give me some simple steps...

Thanks!
