[#7366] CB Invite: Unique Invite Code? was created by timstohr
Hi Kyle,
CB Invites could be REALLY REALLY good, but what it is missing is the possibility to share it via social media... If you had that, together with the CB Substitution, you could basically use it pretty much anywhere!

Could we have that feature? Fairly sure that it can be done with relative ease since you have already the unique link...

Share it via social media? You mean post a invite URL on a social media site? Invite links are unique and single use so I don't see how that'd be very useful.

Agreed in general BUT I meant that you should be able to post it on profiles, via messenger or Whatsapp... Or do you know the email address of your friends still?
I only use Whatsapp or FB messenger anymore.

Added a feature ticket to look into extending the invites to social media. Likely going to take pretty extensive integration like CB Connect has to do due to the various APIs.

Or do you know the email address of your friends still?

I'm old so yes I most certainly do :lol:

Btw should be fairly easy... No need for API or CB Connect type of stuff. The sharing is just calling a link and then Facebook, google and co read your cookie, and share it as "YOUR NAME HERE shared this link with you: MESSAGE ... [LINK"]

That's just generating a generic invite code that doesn't belong to anyone. The idea was to implement something more secure that keeps track of who is being invited. I'll be exploring multiple options when reviewing this feature.
