Bug of "invite only"

[sharonyue]

one year ago I met similar problem https://community.nodebb.org/topic/14603/invitation-register-bug-of-the-latest-nodebb

Can you open an issue at https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues

Also invite is a global privilege now, did you give the users groups invite privilege?

[sharonyue]

@baris Yep, I do give the users groups invite privilege. It does not work.

Well, I forgot my github account... I am not a frequent github user

[sharonyue]

Is it possible to fix the bug here? I dont have a github account..

[baris]

@sharonyue what is the value of maximum invites set to in your ACP? Also which database are you using?

[gotwf]

@baris Iirc, @sharonyue is using MongoDB?

[sharonyue]

I am using redis.
I set it as 0 or 3, none works.

[baris]

I tested this on latest with mongodb/redis and it seems to work. Is the user you are testing with a brand new user or a user who already made some invites? What theme are you using?

[sharonyue]

@baris Hi Baris, thanks for your testing. I just checked it. For the register users, 0 or other numbers works. But for admin, only 0 works. If I set it as 1 or something else, the green invite button in the xxx.com/users disappears.

It looks exactly as here: https://community.nodebb.org/topic/14603/invitation-register-bug-of-the-latest-nodebb

But I checked the solution as posted here: https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/commit/8f4b99a41c6496cbdaaf489f16ecbe261d6c4a79, the source code seems different.
