Hi everyone, I have an invite only forum thusly: [immagine] Is it possible for the invited members to be allowed to invite others by email? I don’t mind if I have to approve them etc as it is a small membership. Thanks for your help!

I have a similar question. Who gets to invite people to the forum? My new site is invite only and we have a small community of novice users, all invited by myself and all given trust level 2 by default. When my users want to invite more users I tell them to look for the invites page in their setti…

[immagine] ggstuart: Who gets to invite people to the forum? Well admin and mods can I think. I have upgraded some of the users to level 3 but can’t see that they can invite others…

I’ve done some basic searches but I can’t find the answer. Perhaps @codinghorror can give us a steer? Is there a way to give users a quota of invitations? My users are not moderators but I’d like to enable them to invite a few people each to get some suitable people into my invite-only forum.

No SSO is not enabled. My TL2 users see this in their preferences page: [immagine] Whereas I see the invites menu item where I can review and manage my invites: [immagine] So my users can only invite new members when dealing directly with a single topic. Is this the intended behaviour?

I can’t explain it, @techapj can you quickly verify that TL2 users can still send invites or any other possible cause of this?

@rebel looking at the screenshot, I see that you have enabled “must approve users” site setting. You need to disable that to allow users greater than TL2 to send invites. [immagine] ggstuart: when I impersonate one of my users at TL2 I cannot see the invites ‘tab’ on their preferences. Make …
