request: sending invitation mail to created users

Postby rengor on Mon 17. Feb, 2003 04:28

Im setting up a new board and have used your mod to create an amount of users the board was meant for.

Now a very helpful addition to this mod would be an option to send an invitation to these new users containing an invitation message plus login and password information.
It could perhaps be done with a "invite user" checkbox in the admin_users much like the "create new user".

Also, is there a MOD out there that forces a user to change password on first login? (Im guessing not, since by default users create their own account, but still...).
This could be an addition to this MOD too.

Thanks alot! (og for de indfødte: mange tak!)

me too.

An inivitation mail could look like this

Code: Select all

You have been invited by Administrator to join the
board "phpBB Testboard".

Please visit this board by either clicking on the
link below, or by cutting and pasting the link into
your browser:

Address: http://yourdomain.com/phpbb

You will need to provide the following user name and
password:

User name: fjklasd
Password: dfjk3589


Please not the board rules!

this would be a addtion to my "protect user account mod" I will also see what can be done...
(if a how-to is EM ready, it will mostly be bullet prof, since a machine is more picky than a human. :D)

Maybe for users that admins make, give them a random password, so admins wouldn't need to set a password by default, but could if they wanted to.

This would also save time for us admins :D
Then email that random password in the invite email.

:idea: PHP-Nuke have a nice random password system, you can especify (inside code) a few words, and this code makes a combination of 2 or 3 (you can set this too) of them and set as user password.

Im not a expert coder, but its seems easy to do.

I saw this at Nuke 5.5 version.
