We’d very much like to have the invite feature for users even while having the validation of new users set to on. Knowing the existing user who referred the new user to the platform would be valued information for the validation process.
This is not possible at the moment, correct?
We can either have validation or invitation, but not both?
I believe that is correct, yes, but I could see us possibly unifying this in the approval pipeline… I know @sam is planning some work on invite codes and maybe this could be bundled?
This behavior has since changed. It is possible for regular members to invite others even when approval of new users is required, without bypassing the approval process.
