I think this is has a very good concept for like a private forum site. My developing site isn't private but now I want to make it private so I can use this.
I saw that one of the links in this AddOn wasn't using the GetUrl() function properly to make the link completely Friendly URL compliant. It is a quick change. This fixes the Invitations link under Account Options when on the Account page:
Where should the invitation Form appear? I copied the files in /extensions and activated it but there doesnt appear a link or something on the hole forum
Invited by: and Invitations sent: stuff appears, only that link is missing
You need to go in the registration setting page to activate it and add the permission to send invitation to the role you want to allow to send invitation. Read the readme file for details.
After you can sent invitation on your account page.
i get this error after i install the extension... Could not setup the table or the settings for the Invitation System extension. Please check your permissions. the read/write ftp settings are all ok and readable so far.
You can try to drop the invitation table and the three invitation fields in the user table; remove the invitation settings from conf/settings.php; and then retry to install.

Find (around line 292):
$Panel->AddListItem($AccountOptions, $Context->GetDefinition('InvitationSystem_Link'), GetUrl($Context->Configuration, 'account.php', '', '', '', '', 'u='. ForceIncomingInt('u', $Context->Session->UserID) . '&PostBackAction=Sesame'));
Change to:
$Panel->AddListItem($AccountOptions, $Context->GetDefinition('InvitationSystem_Link'), GetUrl($Context->Configuration, 'account.php', '', 'u', ForceIncomingInt('u', $Context->Session->UserID), '', 'PostBackAction=Sesame'));

For some reason this thing went bonkers! It messed up my settings.php and reset the fields in the admin page. I reset it and now it gives me this;
A fatal, non-recoverable error has occurred
Technical information (for support personel):

So any suggestions? Should I just disable the invite system and delete the invite database and redo it?
The installer should check the column exist before trying to install it. I have to add that.
Okay, got it working now. Had to delete the database entries in User database and the complete Invitations database.
+ 0.3.1:
- Fixed installer bug when the invitation fields in the user table exist already.
- More friendly link (thanks to gpreston).
