Invite link now available in the sidebar

I will go explore the place to indicate where the invite link ends up - but if I’m reading everything correctly, each person with invite privileges can change those settings, unfortunately.

Yeah, currently that’s the way it is. Users with invite privileges can edit the invite as they please, though some settings are only available to users with the appropriate privileges:

@Discourse

Note that only admin users on the site can invite a user to a topic that’s in a protected category. When doing that they will be prompted to add the user to the group that has access to the category.

@Discourse

Group owners and site admins can invite new users to a group from the group’s page

ideally, these would be already pre-set for members to use so the invitees go to the appropriate place and group without making the members change settings or remember to make the appropriate choices.

Saving presets like this isn’t currently possible. It’s a interesting idea though.

I don’t think it’s been suggested before, but I could be wrong. (I’ve made a brief search through Feature invites). Feel free to create a new feature topic for this if you’d like to explore the idea more.
