Invite

Invitations are important to create network effects and exponential growth of a community of interest. This module adds an 'Invite a friend' feature that allows your users to send and track invitations to join your site.

Invite allows your users to send and track invitations to your site. Users can customize the invitation e-mail which can be sent either on their behalf or in the name of the site. Among the numerous options there are possibilities to escalate invited users to a specific role upon registration and limit the total number of invitations a user can send. This module also offers a new registration setting "by invitation only", which allows you to maintain a semi-private site.

News

The 2.x branch contains new features such as an administrator interface, resend capabilities and allowing multiple invitations to the same e-mail address.

Dependencies

Installation

Please see current README.txt.

API

Invite exposes events through its API. Several third-party modules interact with these events:

  • Buddylist and User Relationships: Inviter and invitee are each put on the other's list of friends.
  • Userpoints: Credit some points for sending registrations and/or when an invited user registers.

Modules that extend Invite:

  • Drupal Contact List Importer: Used to import e-mail addresses from Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, Lycos, and MSN Messenger Contacts.
  • Request Invitation: Require users who are interested in closed/semi-private sites to first request an invitation.
