Uner Customize → Email templates (as well as under Emails → Templates) there are three very similar sounding templates: custom invite mailer invite forum mailer custom invite forum mailer (to add to the confusion, the latter two are currently both labelled as “invite forum mailer” in the menu - …

[Bild] techAPJ: This template is used when inviting a user to a topic with custom message. How do I enable the ability to invite people to a topic with a custom message? I see no setting for this, and when I invite someone, I’m only given the option of entering their username.

Yes, I do. Is that preventing it?

Invites would bypass the parent site auth so that is not possible.

Sorry, I’m not sure what that means. I’m inviting someone to a topic, not as a new member to the site. The invite button works, it just only lets me enter the username. Does not give me the option to share a message with them as well.

To post in the topic they must create a new account, yes? Under SSO this means the account must be created at the parent site first, not in Discourse. Thus invites to new users are not possible with SSO enabled. Disable SSO if you wish to send invites to new users.

Sorry, to clarify this is to existing users. Not trying to invite new users to the Discourse. Just invite existing, SSO enabled users to the specific topic. In fact I’m only given the option of username (so it wouldn’t be possible to invite new users) [27 PM]

Existing users just get a notification, there is no place for that text to go. New users would get an email which contains a body which could have lots of text. Notifications do not contain anywhere close to the volume of text a full email does.

Hi, to clarify: So, if my bulk invite file has: Column A: email Column B: multiple groups Column C: Topic I want them to see first I want to modify “Invite Forum Mailer” to have the email template for this invite campaign sent to those included in the bulk invite file?

When you are including a topic_id in the CSV file, the template you need to edit is the Invite Mailer.

What is the difference between custom invite mailer, invite forum mailer and custom invite forum mailer?
