Send invitations using the regcode module

Hi,

You'll need a custom module to do this: quite a simple module to check whether there's an invite code, and if there is, hide the regcode fields.

I don't have time for this at the moment, maybe put down a bounty and someone can write it for you.

Cheers,

Unfortunately there's quite a steep learning curve writing modules, you'll need to read the introduction to module development and hook_form_alter.

If you make a donation I'll move it up my very long list of things to do :)

Haven't seen a lot of activity with this module. i've had it installed for a while. Nobody seams to eager to update it for this type of functionality, you may wanna check out the Registration Code module.

EDIT: Please strike the previous comment, i'm an idiot.

Anyway, subscribing

you may wanna check out the Registration Code module.

I'm a bit confused.. this is the Registration Code module... Or is there another one?

ugh meant to reply in a different thread. sorry for the confusion

Just to let you know, I'm on this.

Sounds good toemaz, if you need any help drop me a line on IRC.

Find attached a contrib module for the regcode module, which does one thing: look for the code in the url user/register/code/[code]. If it finds the [code], it injects the code in the textfield. Feel free to adapt the code to your own needs.

Small fix.

I don't think toemaz's module helps people trying to integrate with invite, but I agree it's a useful feature so I'll add it to core.

I think the best way to fix this issue is a contributed module to allow users to email regcode invitations to their friends. This module could be implemented either in regcode (thus replacing the Invite module altogether) or in the Invite module as an addon for compatibility (the preferred solution, as mailing invitations is what the invite module does best).

I don't have time to implement such a request, so I'll leave this open for discussion.

I need to use both modules as well. Invite and Registration Code.

My approach is alternating the "invite.module". In that file you ll find the section

/**
 * Implementation of hook_form_alter().
 */
 

If you placed

unset($form['regcode']);

between:

if ($invite) {        

and:

// Preset the e-mail field.
  if (isset($form['account'])) {

the registration-code field will be deactivated.

Unfortunately, the field will be deactivated by directly visiting ../user/register too.
There must be a way to placing "unset($form['regcode']);" affecting the registartion form by coming from an invite-code only?

I know, my code must be hilarious - but I think this is the best way to explain my plan. Maybe there is someone who can help getting this to work?

Thanks

I got some results. Both modules are working together if you:

1. In /admin/user/invite/settings you need to change the path to registration page to user/register/invite
2. add following code in the file invite.module just under
function invite_form_alter(&$form, $form_state, $form_id) {

if (arg(2) === 'invite') {
unset($form['regcode']);
}

Now, if you are visiting the page /user/register you will see the field for the Reg-Code.
If a user gets and invitation, the user will be redirected to user/register/invite where the Reg-Code field is disabled.

Thats it. But it is just an idea. Maybe that is a starting-point to make something better.
Because there is on big issue:
Anybody can visit user/register/invite without having an invite. As there is no Reg-Code Field anyone will be able to register. (I think so?)

What do you think about this workaround? Is there a way to make this bullet-proof?

Of course, this attempt is really bad - especially as I am messing with the code in the invite module !!!!!
