Group Invites new UI: add a new user setting #44

Closed imath closed 8 years ago

imath commented 8 years ago

I think in one of our chat in slack @boonebgorges said Core choose to only display friends into the group invites screen because some members might not be ok to be invited by others if there are not friends.

I understand this concern, and i think we can provide a way to satisfy all needs. I just need to adapt the Group invites UI and add a user setting. This way when the inviter click on the user it could display a notice like 'This member only accepts group invites from friends'.

The concern always is that your exposed to other members, this 'Friend' thing allows us to be selective and ensure no spamming. I agree though we need a wider more open approach to invites.

And saying all this prompts mention of a certain @boonebgorges magnificent plugin 'invite-anyone' which should have long long ago been added to core frankly :)
