I’m trying to make a nice generic invite for my community. We’ve made a user with a nice username and name to appear on the invite screen. But the number of invites is limited to 10, and the timeframe is limited to three months. Is there a way to bypass the limit to create a generic invite with a…

[immagine] Stephen De Gabrielle: Is there a way to bypass the limit to create a generic invite with a large number of uses that we can post on our website and other socials so we can drive traffic to our discourse site? Yes, don’t use an invite link. :smiley: I’m not being facetious, but inv…

Hi @spdegabrielle if you search “invite” in admin - settings, you should find the required fields you can configure.

@not-ethan and @Lilly Thank you for responding so quickly. I’m trying to make a generic invite, not tied to a particular user. So while the staff users can do 5000 with any date limit, the invite is tied to their name. which isn’t very informative on the invite screen, [image] @Lilly The user…

@Lilly my mistake - there is an ‘invite expiry days’ setting - but sadly it is global - I’m disinclined to change all users to 5000.

Do you want all users to be able to invite, or just limit this one particular account or selected ones? If latter, I guess you could set min trust level to allow invite to TL4 then assign those users to that trust level. :thinking:

Good suggestion. It seems reasonable as I’ve never had a user use the invite function. Still, I’d rather not remove the facility. I’m guessing from your responses the a generic site invite - like many discord servers - is not a feature available in discourse?

Ok I think I may have figured it out. Use a staff account. The setting shown below: invite link max redemptions limit applies to staff accounts. Also max invites per day doesn’t appear to be limited by staff. [IMG_0219] [IMG_0218] Check out this topic [immagine] Config…

Yes I’m aware of staff account capabilities. But I’m after a generic invite, not one from one of our staff.

I’m confused as to why you don’t just make a designated staff account for this? I think I am just misunderstanding what you are trying to do. My apologies.

We only have a limited number of staff accounts. Would need to ‘unstaff’ someone.

Ok, penso di aver capito. Usa un account staff. L’impostazione mostrata di seguito: invite link max redemptions limit si applica agli account staff. Inoltre, max invites per day non sembra essere limitato dallo staff.

Dai un’occhiata a questo argomento

In altre parole, esattamente quello che ha detto @not-ethan, ma le impostazioni non sembrano molto chiare.

Forse le descrizioni delle impostazioni potrebbero essere più chiare.
