I was thinking about this over the last few weeks and wonder if it can be done? so when a user lands on the welcome page and goes to join up, the first thing they will see is not name ect but a box saying something like: This site is for invited membership only Please type your invite code in the box below. If the code is valid you will be passed along the sign up form. or This site is for invited membership only Please type your invite code in the box below with your email. If the code is valid you will be emailed confirming can sign up
You can do it the following way: Edit your signup form and add page break brick to divide form to two parts. IN fiorst part add html brick and put your text in brick configuration. Also add coupon brick to first part. Configure this brick and make it required. Also configure labels for this brick and change 'Coupon' to 'Invoice Code'. All other fields (name/email/products etc) put on second part pf form. aMember CP -> Configuration -> Forms Editor Setup new coupon batch and use coupons from it as invite codes. aMember CP -> Products -> Coupon Codes Also we have invite plugin that allow your customer to send invite codes to his friends from member area.
ok found a small bug, u can ONLY have 1 coupon brick on sign up so if i change first part as you say and then want to have coupon near product for discounts , i cant?
what i have done , as still making site is this welcome page says the invite only and code and works as tested i removed product, payment from the normal sign up form i then copied the form in the admin ONLY put product, coupon ( reworded) and payment and called this signup/order now how do i sort out this part? as when i go to click "add/renew sub" it comes up 2 forms, sign up and order and i just need order? have i go about it the right way? or do you think of a better way?
Yes, it is correct way. Please navigate to aMember Cp -> Configuration -> Forms editor and enable option 'Hide' for your signup form. This option hide this form from member menu.
