Given this is going fairly ok, I'm considering opening up the forum.
However, since you're all on it currently, you should be the ones to tell me how you'd like that to happen.
Here's a few possible options:
- We have a pinned Hidden (= only logged-in users can see it) thread where people can request invite codes. I then DM an X-use code.
- No invites required, maybe admin approval required (I'm not sure how this works, we've been invite-only from the start).
- We have a pinned Hidden thread where I post the monthly invite code. It has limited uses (let's say 5), but anyone can use them.
- People judged responsible are given unlimited use codes that include a tag to mark people as invited by that person. Only a few people get them, but they are permanent, and anyone can eventually get one of their own.
If you have other ideas, let me know!
P.S. I will also make a sticky discussion that explains how flarum works etc.
Useful to remind yourself and for newbies.
