Invitations

[KBF Mgr. Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close KBF Mgr.]

I was wondering if there is a invite component with this new forum upgrade. If it is available could someone post the instructions?

It would be nice to send invites out for others to join this forum.

Thought I would put this back up and see if anything is out there. Fingers crossed

Sorry no one got back to you sooner. Some of us were away myself included.


What do you mean by invite? Do you mean inviting peoples emails addresses like spam? Or do you mean to invite peole here on your own from your resort?

Frank, it's not spam if it comes from someone in your address book. I think Ken could put together a script that emails something from the OP's email address to whatever friend he specifies. The email could be a nice HTML presentation of what TS4M's is about with a link to the home page. I think it's a great idea.

The software here has a way to email it's own members, It can not email people from my address book.

hmmm, yeah, I see what you mean, the email address of the sender would be the site's address, not the good intentioned friend.

KBF, what about this, when you find a thread a friend might be interested in click on the Thread Tools tab and then click Email this page. It pops up a new page where you enter recipient name and recipient email address. The subject is the title of the thread and there is a message section that is populated like this:

I thought you might be interested in reading this web page:

You can edit the message to say whatever you like.

It gets sent by the ts4ms email address so there is still a possibility that it will get snagged by a spam filter.
