doh, nevermind it works. Got confused by having far to many different browsers open trying to test things. Thanks I get the idea with this much more clearly now.

New to Elgg... this demo was incredibly helpful but there is one thing I don't understand. When the two new fields get added to the main register page, they show up outside the <form> </form> tags (presumably because they are added to the bottom of the page), so their values don't seem to actually get submitted when the register form is submitted.

Anyone can tell me what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!

new to elgg, where can I find a demo site?

Where do I unzip/install this plugin? 

really?  elgg 1.5?  are you using 1.5 or a newer version.  i am not positive, but pretty sure this will not work on 1.7 or 1.8.  but in any case you install it into the mod directory

@Asmarino: better use this one http://community.elgg.org/plugins/384965/3.2/friend-request as it's for Elgg 1.8 (and I'm pretty sure you are not using any older version...).

great plugin! nice work!

Ok, I have this installed just fine.  I select one of my gmail accounts and it pulls in all my contacts just fine as well.  However, after i select the contacts i want and click the invite button i get the following error:

"Invalid Session ID"

Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how I may fix it?  Thankyou in advanced.

I had the same problem with "Invalid Session ID".  In my case, the problem comes from "$fop=fopen($file,"wb");" in file openinviter_base.php. It could not find the cookie directory. I changed the "cookie_path"=>'c:\\tmp'" in config.php. It worked.

Good luck.

waiting for future update

I'm using elgg 1.7.1

When I try to add a new tab I get "Form is missing __token or __ts fields" error message. Does it support 1.7.1?

Or am I doing somethin gwrong?

Thanks

@Tek As Maybe, this plugin needs an upgrade. Maybe the following thread could help you ...

Hi i've found a little solution for the problem of the "default" value for moderation.

For the file /moderation/actions/friendrequests/add.php

after the line:

 $moderation=$settings['moderation'];

simply put an if control
 if ($moderation != "") {
 //keep the same
 }else{
 //set as moderation
  $moderation = 'moderation';
 }

I've found some little problems like, for example, that not all the contents are available in the translation editor but need to be translated inside the code.

Btw a BIG ISSUE that 'ive found is that when someone accept friendship, this activity isn't set in the last activities.

Will this work on 1.7.1?

@ tobi... y do u need this 1.7.1 comes with this feature by default
