Thank you for this needed hack..installed and it works perfect

does this work for 3.5.2?

EDIT: installed on 3.5.2 and seems ok so far.

Loving the mod works great with the referrer stats mod

Most of the 3.5.0 + 3.5.1 mods will work on 3.5.2, unless stated otherwise..

Thanks for your hard work.I'll be waitting for your upgread ..
then I'll click Install ;)

What upgrade?

If you mean me upgrading to 3.5.2, then I can guarantee that this hack works on 3.5.2 - because it does not involve any file edits....

Oh come. You know. "that" upgrade. ;)

No I forgot. Could you please remind me so that I don't have to re-read 5 pages of the topic?>

can I as an admin see the history of the invite's of any user on the forum?
or in the user View Profile? :squareeyed:

Excellent hack! Two feature suggestions which should be painless to implement.

First, the Not logged in/Unregistered usergroup needs to have the View Forum permission set to Yes; otherwise, invitees get a permission error when they try to register; can this be fixed?

Second, users who are invited and register are automatically thrown into the Users Awaiting Moderation usergroup. It would be nice if you could set which usergroupid a newly registered invitee is thrown into.

Also, I think it would be more conveniant, at least for me :rolleyes: , if instead of setting which usergroupids ARE NOT allowed to invite people, being able to set which usergroupids ARE allowed to invite people.

In view profile yes. Concerning global history - why is Referrer Statistics no good?

That sound weird. I'll check whether that is true.

Moderation? Do you have COPPA enabled or something?

Ok.

No, I have Moderate New Members enabled. :nervous: I realize I could just shut moderation off, but it would still be nice if you could have invitees set to an arbitrary usergroupid.

I'm sorry if this has already been posted, but I can't edit my user cp templates! Everything else works but nobody knows about the system due to the user cp templates not being editable. If I try to edit them I just get an error saying the page cannot be found!

What would I have to edit so that you only have to enter an email address (or multiple addresses seperated by a coma) to invite people. The current syntax seems to confuse people for some reason... lol

People are always being stupid about simple things. Just ignore it and point them at the instructions :)

I'll see if I can do it.

lol funny eh? we always figure out the complicated stuff faster then the easiest stuff

Must COPPA set be off? And Moderate also?

Sorry if I ask blond ;)
But in your instruction ist standing nothing about!

Thnx for the answer!

No, it does not have to be that way.

I dont really care were can i see the history of the invite as long as i can keep track of each user and who's he/she is inviting.

Because what I see is (see screenshot) nothing happens, means (don't know if I see correctly) if the user recieve the email and klick on the link what is included into the mail I first see the forum rules, after I aggree I see the registration form. But the field : Referrer is empty.

But what also happend is that in the first URL is standing (example):

http://www.domain.ltd/register.php?i...b666fef3bd4035

If I click on next after accepting there is standing only:

http://www.domain.ltd/register.php

If I finish the registration and also the Account will be approved by the admin (my users are moderated) nothin happens into the control panel of the user. (see screenshot)

Means I don't see : recieved and also nothin into accepted.

Thnx for help by my "little" problem.

Your problem does not exist when the hack is installed correctly. Make sure you did all the steps.

P.S.
I think it's time to put a disclaimer in all of my hacks, stating that I do not provide any support unless you are absolutely certain that you have correctly followed all the install steps.

this keeps getting better!!

Hi Psonic!

Well in your instruction ist nothing standing about the referrer Hack.
The other points I did now 4 times with the same result!
And you can be shure normaly I check if I did everything what is standing into install instructions before I ask.

But let's have a look how it looks if I install the other hack also!

Greetings
Hans

Can anyone think of any reason, that, no matter what style I use, I cannot edit ANY user cp templates?

Your question pertains to vB in general rather than to this hack. Please ask in the appropriate forum (vbulletin.com).

Ok, fine, its just that I cannot make this hack fully functional without this!

It doesn't matter. In this thread, I only provide support for this particular hack. Not instructing people how to edit templates.

Wow, I ask for a new feature and it's in in less than 24 hours, what awesomness. I have another feature request, young Jedi.

What if specific usergroupids could create an invite link that can be used multiple times, which is either set to expire automaticically after X days or after the creator of the invite disables it. So, for example, I could post an invite link somewhere and multiple people could follow that link and register. What do you think?

Okay I have one problem. I have installed this and have 1 problem and 1 question. The invitation goes out fine but when the user clicks on it, it brings them to the sign in page. Then they click on the register button and a message pops up that says you need to be invited to register here so they cant register. Also if I disable the registration section so that it would be invite only they can even get that far what am I missing.

You seem to have something wrong with forum permissions.
There is nothing in my hack that involves the invokation of sign in page though.

OKay thanks will get back too it. The only reason that I thought different was because it said you need a invitation in order to register. And that was right after they click on the email recieved by the invitation.

Hi Psionic Vision :) I've got a suggestion that could help a lot of people. Could you change this method of entering in the invites:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

to this:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

We're already getting complaints from people new to computers saying they don't understand how to enter in the invites :ermm: If they don't understand it (or if they use it wrong) then they won't want to use it. Having a seperate text box to enter in each invite is more straight forward and easier to understand, as most people have already dealt with these small text boxes before.

that would be great!

This is true. I have the same problem :ermm:

Install :)

I actually made it single-field by a request.

This is a vBulletin bug. Checked on a fresh board.
Report posted: [here].

P.S. Yay 100 installs! :)

Seriously? :surprised:

So no chance of an admin option to toggle it on/off or an upgrade file for those admins who prefer the easier seperate box method?

Yes, seriously.
Maybe there will be such option if I have some free time next weekend :)

How to upgrade? Just reupload product or do templates changes also?

i just upgraded.
after that, i start to see the same error that i saw before, which you fixed somehow:

basically I get the following parse error whenever I try to add a reputation to other members:
