Managing the "Invite Member" option

Learn how to manage the invite member option on your account

Written by Rodrigo

By default, members can invite others to your community by sharing your community link directly from their home feed.

This makes it easy for your existing members to spread the word and bring more people to your site.

Invite member overview

If you have any public plans or a Join for free option enabled, members will be able to share your community with others using the Invite member option from their home feed.

This option lets members share a link to your community, making it easier to invite others to join.

Sharing the link won’t automatically add anyone to your community — instead, invited people will be taken to your Plans page, where they can join for free (if enabled) or choose one of your paid plans.

People invited by email will receive an invitation email to join your community, which includes a link to your Plans page where they can choose a plan to join.

Managing the "Invite member" option

The Invite member option is only available if you have open or public plans, depending on how your offers are set up.

While this option can’t be directly disabled or managed at this time, here’s how it behaves based on your plan accessibility settings.

At least one paid plan

If you have at least one paid plan, anyone using the invite link will be taken to your Plans page, where they can view your available paid plans. If you also offer a Join for free option, they’ll be able to choose that as well.

No paid plans

If you don’t have any paid plans, the invite link will automatically take people to the account creation page, where they can sign up and join your community for free.

No available plans

If you don’t have any available paid plans and the Join for free option is turned off, the invite option will be disabled.

FAQs

Can I disable the "Invite member" option?

While you can’t directly disable the Invite member option, it will automatically be disabled if there are no available ways for new people to join your community (for example, no paid plans and no Join for free option).

If you don’t want the Invite member option to appear for your members, you can remove all available ways for new people to join by:

  • Disabling the Join for free option on your Plans page

  • Changing the availability of all of your plans to Closed so new signups aren’t allowed
