Invite-style Registration with FreakAuth - El Forum - 09-24-2007

[eluser]jgberg[/eluser]
I'd like to know if anyone has already patched FreakAuth to support invite-style registration? By invite-style, I mean that a registered & logged in user or admin can enter the email address of a invitee and the system will then generate an email invitation with a registration URL with an invitation code for that invitee. The invitee can then visit that invitation URL, enter the invite code and then be allowed to register, but not change their email. This is different from the current FreakAuth model, which has open registration to anyone.

For the invite-style to work:
1. configuration options would limit how many invitations each user can have pending at a time, and how long the timeout is for invites that are unanswered. Various messages to the invitees would be configurable
2. It would have helpers for displaying pending invitations
etc

Does Danfreak have this done already by any chance ;-) ?

FWIW: having looked at the code it doesn't look like a huge change to do this...

Hi, nice idea, nothing like this in the works.
FAL is said to be too big, don't know if this kind of feature would be "essential".
Anyway you can try to extend FAL (since 1.1) and code your INVITE thing !!!
Sure I'll use it on my future website.
