🚀 Feature: Invite Users to Pingvin #521

Open maurxce opened 4 months ago

maurxce commented 4 months ago

🔖 Feature description

A way to generate invite links, so users can register themselves and bypass the disabled registration setting

🎤 Pitch

I want to invite specific users to Pingvin, while still having registrations disabled for everyone else. I only want specific people to access my instance, but I don't think it's a good idea to create an account for them and tell them the password. I'd much rather have an invite link I can share.

Perhaps just a general invite link generator, or if smtp is enabled also bound to an email address? So that the email pretty much gets pre-filled once you register using the link

Sure, but if let's say I have a server with 50 members, but only want 10 to have access. Then what? That would require setting up a server dedicated to share access, which is not exactly ideal

I wonder if that would be possible with a small script and using the API urls directly, creating users with an initial password should be easy.
