I've uninstalled and reinstalled this modification and it's doing the same-- the link in the email sends the registrant to a page that says they need an invitation, not to the forum rules. I've sent myself dozens of invitations. They all do the same thing. This was working on 3.6. Seems to not be working on 3.8-- or is it just me?

ETA I fixed it! We still had the 3.6 version installed and the two versions were duking it out. Weird.

Umm in ur VB registration options do u have registration closed?

If u do enable it and in the hack ticket the "Disable Normal Registration Methods"

Try that.. if its not like that..

[FreshFroot]

how is this different than:

Just wondering... Because, I used to use vS invites, but yours looks almost the same. But, there must be some difference?

Uninstalled...

This mode needs to be updated with more options configured from AdminCP Options...

When it is...I might think about using it again...

Like setting the number of invitations...most users will not know how to go into their MySQL database and update the user table to correct the initial problem of setting this at 100 per user in the first place. That's an open invitation to spammers...who will register and abuse it. By the time you catch them...the damage is done.

So why not re-code it and include some of the recommendations that have been made throughout this thread?

then install http://vbulletin-germany.org/showthread.php?t=5429
its a add-on for this add-on which makes it possible for admins to set the invitation number in the userprofil with ajax

Well...I'm tired of having to add additional add-ons to have a mod do what I want it to do. Don't you think the coder should include this in the mod? I mean...it's common sense. Sure let's give a user access to 100 invitations, initially, so a spammer can join and start sending out random email from a board to anyone they choose. Why not code this mod to an initial 10 invitations and add the ability for an admin to adjust this via the mod's options?

Don't get me wrong...I appreciate all the time and effort a coder puts into his/her work. Additionally...I see recommendations to these coders for improvements, which are either acknowledged and/or ignored...or they do incorporate them into the mod.

However, what aggravates me is that a mod will have a fix for a bug within the mod...and instead of updating the mod with the fix...you have to search/scroll through pages of threads to find the fix (in a separate file). Sheesh...just update the mod for crying out loud...and then notify those users (that have installed it) of the new release.

Just an opinion...

I installed it and it wrecked the layout of the navbar. I have uninstalled and waiting for a response from you, hoping you might know what the problem might be.

Hi, i would start to thanks for this great [mod] working perfectly!
Now i having some request that i want to see in the updated version.

1. Firstly if it would possible to make a invite without sending a email.
almost like smf invite [mod]. look here;


You can make a invite and then share it around without any need to email somebody.
I have many members asking for invites but don't giving me email addres. So if i could give the invite code directly instead of asking "what is your email address"

2. When you register. Would it be possible to post the invite code before register. like this:


3. I want to see this in the admincp panel:

*Max number of invites credits for a certain usergroup.
*Number of days for a invite key to be valid
*Number of days for a certain usergroup to get a new invite

If you could fix this, i will forever thank you Hasann!

Best Regards

[SirHappy]
