Re: [2.0.19] Invitation Only

In which case - to spare you unnecessary work - I'll add that I suspect the invitation codes only get deleted automatically if you've sent them out using the email form that is part of the mod.

All mine have been sent out in personal emails, and I have manually deleted them once they've been used. It would be good - and much more secure - if they were automatically deleted whichever way they were sent out, though.

Good luck by the way!
Getting braver all the time. :D

Mod is installed at: http://bfwteacher.preview.speedyrails.net/ it is the only installed mod, and my mod skill level is at 'n00b', so I'll need explicit instructions on what to fix.

Enable Invitation Only refuses to stay on. When I look at the General Config page, it's on 'Disable' every time.

Because of this, anyone can register, and no one is being auto added to their groups. I am also not getting admin emails to add them, for groups listed as closed or listed as open, no users are being listed as pending, because according the the board, no one has asked to be added.

Halp! I really need this site to go live, soon!

Edit: Caught that the earlier reccomendation was to move to IOU2U... I'm hoping someone has come up with a fix, because getting mods installed on my board is a PITB, and IOU2U has much more functionality than I need.

Hmm. That looks just like the code I gave to the webhost to plug into the SQL. (I don't have any access to that area, I have to have someone do it for me.)

How can I check to see that it all made it in correctly?

I just wanted to stop in and say I LOVE YOU! Thanks a ton!

I went on vacation for a week about a month ago...I got back and I had over 200 new registered users on my Family's forum...I've got it set to private and blah blah blah so you can't seen anything unless you register and I make the account active....needless to say I was getting tired of these spam bot registrations and because of you I found the fix! Thank you!!!!!

btw, w/EasyMod this installed in less than 10 seconds, great job!

OK, so i found a solution to this problem..
now my second question is.. how can i set the invates in this way - if a user will register, he will automatically obtain some amount of invates when will reach some rank, not right after the registration..

Sorry if these are redundant questions, I tried the "Search this topic" and it returned 49,600 results and none on the first two pages were from this topic.

First, can this be used along with regular registrations? I would still like regular registration to work but I would like to invite people also.

Will the autogroup feature validate them into the group or will the moderator still need to approve it?

Thanks,

Paul LaBrier

I have installed it and everything, updated sql and all of the files, and I set it on Invite only but if I go to the register page it says Not open for anonymous registration and blah blah, then it says Enter Invite code, and no matter what I enter it will take me to the Register page, Anyone that could help me I could paypal you a few bucks for helping me out, give you a link on my large forum or a free web hosting account on my dedicated server, Thanks in advanced.

No its not dead, but recrution isnt allowed on this board, so its normal nobody replied to your request :).
You can try to make it yourself even, or ask someone to do.

Does anyone have any idea why it's doing that? Or try to do it on your board and see if it does the same thing..
