Introduction

This WordPress Registration Form Plugin allows for invitation codes that can be sent to certain users and required for registration.

Using invitation codes you can achieve the following:

  • Limit and control the amount of registrants
  • Manage registration campaigns to your pre-launched site
  • Define specific roles to be assigned to users when using a specific invitation code
  • Define a membership level once using a specific invitation code
  • Require or not require email verification for specific invitation codes 

Creating Invitation Codes

To create an invitation code, go to Invitation codes in the plugin dashboard.

Here you can edit:

  • Title - add the name of the code. This is for internal usage and the users won't have access to it.
  • Code - You can either type a code yourself (for instance "Welcome"). The plugin is flexible and accepts virtually any value - you can use as many characters as you would like.

    Alternatively, click the Generate new button to instantly generate a randomized 12-characters code.

  • Expiration date - add a code expiration date. After this date, the invitation code can not be used
  • Users limit - The number of times this invitation code can be used.
  • Require email verification - choose whether to require email verification or not or follow global plugin settings.
  • User role - Admin can choose which WP role will be set for a user that registered with the specific invitation code.
  • Require to use the following email - This feature lets you restrict the usage of a specific invitation code to a specific user. So users can not send the invitation code to someone else

    If an email address is set, the plugin will send an email with the invitation code to the user as soon as it is created.


After The Codes Are Created 

After creating an invitation code, users will need to input the correct code to complete site registration.

Creating Smart Links

You can use links that automatically add the invitation code to the registration widget. To do this, add ?invite=code to the end of the registration URL, where code is the invitation code. 

For instance, let's suppose you want to add the code "welcome" to the site www.test.com/registration. To do so, send your new users the link www.test.com/registration?invite=welcome
