Group Invite Features and Other Improvements

We have applied a new update today that improves the group invite functions, allows you to turn off the friends feature and more!

Here is a list of features and improvements this update brings to the platform;

  •  Group admins can set who can invite new members to the group, (Admins Only or Members)
  • When someone starts an Invite they can ether invite their friends from within your website or send out an email to all their contacts
  • Invited people automatically join the group regardless of the Approval option for the group.
  • Group Invite Messages are fully customizable.
  • Improved Group Box Element, before we used the same element that was used for the Groups page, however we now have a dedicated Group Box element you can place on other pages with it's own set of options.
  • The site setting page that controls the features of profiles has been renamed from Member Profile Settings to Profile and Group Settings
  • A new option has been added to the site group settings that allows you to set the viewing level for groups separately from profiles. Thus you could setup your groups to require a subscription and leave the profiles open for everyone.
  • The Friends Profile Feature checkbox on the Profile and Groups Setting page now turns off all friend related features. Thus if you wanted to have a network were everyone is each others friend you can do so.
  • We have added a captcha box on the Join site page for a member that is already registered on the Spruz Platform but has not joined with your website
  • The Profile Settings page have been improved by add Change Email, and Change Display name to that area. Thus all profile related functions have been added to a structured account settings page, this is handy if you wanted a one click account link rather then a drop down list.
  • You can now add a captcha code to the Email Form Element by using #draw_captcha()# anywhere in the editor for customizing your form.
  • New Blog Options to turn off comments and sharing on a blog post. You will see a new option block when you add or edit your blog entries.
  • TinyChat Now supports seeing admins as moderators.
  • We have applied a number of adjustments to the platform for the upcoming Member Subscription Module update that will be released Friday afternoon.
  • We completed the adjustments needed so that users in Ireland and Australia will not see a message that requires them to upgrade their free site. As part of our updates to phase our free services in countries outside the US, Canada, Great Brittan, Belgium, Ireland, and Australia. Read the full post

As mentioned earlier we do have a number of improvements coming to the Member Subscription Module, some improvements include ability to set a range of payment terms and support for other currencies. We are completing the changes for the improvements to that system, plus new Comment Box settings for release by this weekend!
