This is a powerful hack

I love the invitation system idea

[TriMe]

Extremely useful hack, thanks for your work.

Im having trouble making it a invite only site. I've tried going to adminCP -> user registration and disabling "Allow New User Registrations"

Then in adminCP -> Invitation System Options and Enabled the "Invitation System"
and Disable Normal Registration Methods I put "YES"

Am I missing something?

When I invite someone, they get the email and when they click the link it says "Sorry, registration has been disabled by the administrator"

TriMe

[bahrainonline]

can we have these two option in the hack
1 we can monitor the invitation by the control panel in admin cp so i can see how many invitation been sent and how many pending and so on
2 can we know this user been register by which invited user? so we can disable the option from him
the last qustion
will the new registeration follow the setting been put in registeration option like moderating new registeration?

Thanks

I have read each and every post in this thread. And I've noticed there are some things missing that I feel would need to be addressed.

Have all of the invite emails cued to send subject to admin or mod approval. Batch mail out or bulk mailer. What ever it's called. Or maybe an automatic function that would send them out in mass. At a fixed time once per day.

While the mail is sitting in the cue, have the invite system do the following:
Check to see if more than one member has sent an invite to the same email name and address before it goes out. Some sort of notice message saying so and so has already been invited. This would make the users have to send invites to different addresses each time. This would prevent users from sending mail over and over to the same email address. I would assume it would have to check the time and date of the outgoing invites and determine whose got cued first and send that one. Then give the notice message to the member that sent the dup.

I would do away with the member added message. Too open for abuse. Either that or make sure they could not attach an image or a link. Matter of fact if they can see the outbound message I would make it a hard coded example and that would be all they could see of it.

Maybe I missed it but if I didn't, there needs to be a status page added to the stats in the ACP.
Who sent invites
How many total
To who
Who responded
Something like that.

I'm going to wait until 3.7 goes gold to grab this one. Lord knows my place needs a kick in the pants.
Nice work.

Anyone got this to play nice with Vbadvanced? I can't get the "send invitation link" under quick links to work on my vbadvanced pages. Anyone know how to fix this?

[maidos]

can the invitation link expire after 3 days

Fixed version 3.7 ( Securitytoken ) ???
