Invite
smk-ka - April 20, 2005 - 23:04
Invitations are important to create network effects and exponential growth of a community of interest. This module provides an Invite a friend feature to allow your users to send and track invitations to join your 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.
There is an experimental 3.x version on GitHub, aiming at decoupling the API from pluggable sub-modules like the current e-mail invitations, but also OG invites or even printed coupon codes.
Dependencies
- Token
- (optional) Personalized E-mails to control the sender name displayed in e-mail clients
Installation
Please see current README.txt.
Third-party integration
Invite allows other modules to interact on certain events (but still no core trigger/actions support, sorry):
- User Relationships: automatically create a relationship between inviting and invited user.
- Userpoints: credit some points to inviters for sending registrations and/or successful registrations.
Modules to extend Invite:
- Contact Importer: let users import contacts from their webmail address books.
- Request Invitation: require users who are interested in closed/semi-private sites to first request an invitation.
