Hi,

 

I don't know whether it is feasible or not. I have a suggestion for our JUG site. Can we have an inivitation link by which we can easily send it to the known friends to join the group. The invitation should consists of general FAQs about the group including a request to join.

 

Thanks,

Praveen Babu Racha

Ask and you shall receive!

I have just installed a new INVITE module that lets our members do most of the stuff Praveen requested. Here is what you need to do to invite a friend:

1. Log on to www.hiteccityjug.org
2. Click "my account" link located in the right-hand navigation links.
3. You shall see a new "Buddy List" Section under which you will find " Invite a Friend" link. or you can simply visit http://www.hiteccityjug.org/invite
4. Click Inivte a friend link and enter the email address of your buddy.
5. Click Submit and your friend will receive an email with a registration code and a link to registration page.

When you friend registers at the website, we send him the password. You can also keep track of your invitations and when your friend joins the JUG, you will see "XYZ has joined the HITEC City JUG" message at the top on your next visit to our website.

There is currently a limitation (20 invites) on the number of invites you can send. If some one wants more, we can fix the situation.

A very good idea indeed. Keep the feedback flowing....
