This is one of the most important mods. I wish there were more updates.

I am having a problem with this mod since upgrading.

The url that it sends the invitee simply sends them to the screen that says they need an invite. Even if I edit the url to just show the register.php link, it still says you need an invite to register, even though they're linking to the page FROM an invite.

Does anyone know how I can make this code required to register? What I am trying to get is an invitation only forum. Removing register.php does not work, as this system requires it. Is there a way that I can do this? I have also tried to disable registration, but it affects the invitation system as well... PLEASE help, I will love you forever lol

Where can A be done from?

and how to change default 100 invites to everyone?

Click the second option in your adminCP . What happens is when people click register then the system will not allow you too. But if you process the link sent to you in an email this will allow you to join up.

Ok guys,

Here's how to set custom numbers of invites on a per usergroup basis.

This requires using SQL.....

Take a note of the usergroup number (found in the Usergroup manager in the admincp)

Use phpadmin or your database viewer and do the following:


Go to the user table.
Click on SQL
Use this code -


xxx - Number of invitations you'd like the usergroup to have
yyy - Usergroup to apply the above number of invitations to.


Run it multiple times changing whichever variables you choose for different usergroups.

I have this enabled but it just sends registrants on an endless loop, telling them they need an invitation.

We may have our wires crossed here. When a guest arrives at your site. They can not log in as they are not registered. So they click the link to register. Which should take them to the 'your invitation is not valid' message.

This is because the normal register link is this. http://www.yoursite/register.php?do=signup

When you send an invitation out via your userCP or the navbar link you should see this in your email.

http://www.yoursite.com/register.php?referrerid=1&invitation=345ebcc828911 3dd2400

This should take you straight to the Forum Rules page and then CAPTCHA and then your details etc.

Try sending yourself an invite. Log out of your site and click the link in your email.

If none of the above is working then you must have installed it wrong.

This can all be done via mysql....

a --> See my post above

------

b -->

Find the userid (edit user profile & it'll be at the top of the admincp page)
UPDATE user set invitation=0 WHERE userid=yyy

yyy - the userid you found in step 1 of these instructions.

------

c --> I don't understand what you want here.

------

d -->

Find userid as above instructions explain.
UPDATE user set caninvitation=0 WHERE userid=yyy


yyy - the userid you found in step 1 of these instructions.


------

Change all user invites en-masse -->

UPDATE user set invitation=100

Then click on Structure (in phpmyadmin)
Edit the invitation field (pencil icon) and change the Default field to 100 (this will ensure all future registrations will default to 100 invitations.

It doesn't. I've had this installed for awhile and it was working perfectly until I upgraded the forums and this script to the 3.7 version. I don't know what to do to fix it, but http://www.yoursite.com/register.php?referrerid=1&invitation=345ebcc828911 3dd2400 sends registrants back to the page that says they need an invitation.
