How can I control who can send an invitation?
Sep 10 2009, 11:32 PM EDT | Post edited: Sep 10 2009, 11:32 PM EDT
I have a private site and want to control who sends invitations. I don't want other members to be able to invite their "friends" as I'm creating a closed community. Is this possible? At a minimum, can I turn off the portion of the message when someone accepts an invite that says, "Invite 5 more friends" ? Do you find this valuable?

Any registrered user can send invatations. Except for on a private site. Wetpaint is having problems with the private sites at the moment.

On private sites, only moderators and above can send invitations to users. So, the way to control this is by only making users you want to be able to send invites to moderators. However, right now, the invite feature for private sites has been dropped, so the only way to get people onto your private site is to make it un-private, let them join, and make it private again.

Yeah, but I would hope that nobody else joined......but you could always ban them! Do you find this valuable?
