other than that, Its a great addon.

thanks,

Currently we have situation where only user with correct combination of email address and invitation code is able to register (of course when 'only invited' option is enabled). Here we are sure that registered member was really invited, and inviter is marked as referrer.

If we enable registration with correct code but any email address, then this feature becomes completely useless, as it's easy to share the code. I can get it and register on your forums, but was never invited. Also noone will be marked as referrer. Then we can enable registration without the code, and make it all easier for new registrants.

Installed and working great, Thanks

Will this show me if a registered user is trying to register another account? (Duplicate IP's)

Hi, is it possible to add the invite friends box directly on the registration page?

Error: e-mail address(es) incorrect:  function () { for (var i = 1; i < this.length; i++) { if (this[i][0] == this[i - 1][0]) { this.splice(i, 1); } } }; function () { for (var i = 0; i <= this.length; i++) { this.shift(); } }

I get the above error when sending invites

It would be a nice feature to instead of only giving a "Add to navbar yes/no" option for the invites, to give a drop down menu that allows you to "Disable/add to navbar/add to Quicklinks/add to Forum Actions".

I know I could do this manually in the template, but it would be nice if coders would start making this a menu option. It doesn't take long to fill up your navbar if you have a lot of mods installed.

Strange. I've just installed this mod, and when I click on "setup" for the random questions, I'm taken to the FAQ > Smilie List.

Any thoughts??

Edit: It appears almost every link in the AdminCP panel for this mod takes me to the Smilie FAQ!? (it appears that's the default page for any reference to www.domain.com/forum/misc.php.

So...mine is ignoring the variables in "?do=xxx"

arrr Valter, i love your hacks. thanks!

[mfowler70]

Great mod. Installed.

One problem though. I sent an invite my myself (different email), registered a test account, clicked the activation link sent via email, logged back in as admin, moderated the account, but it still shows up in the invitations list as "not accepted yet".

The process works fine, but it just doesn't clear the invitation list at the end.

Any suggestions.
